Description
The Heavy Handle Dumbbell is the absolute best way to build
INCREDIBLE backpressure! You will not believe the awesome
power the Heavy Handle will develop in your hands, wrists,
forearms, and biceps!
What
Makes the Heavy Handle Dumbbell So Great?
The Heavy
Handle provides you with resistance from angles you have never
before experienced, and training in this way will build amazing
strength that will directly translate to more victories on
the arm wrestling table! See the exercises
we recommend for arm wrestlers using the Heavy Handle.
How
Do I Use the Heavy Handle?
The Heavy Handle™ dumbbells innovative patent-pending
design allows you to use it either with standard 1" plates
(not included) or a cable attachment can be used to connect
the Heavy Handle to a universal-type of pulley machine for
rows, curls and any type of cable pulls.
For reference purposes, we will
call the weight shaft with the cable attachment ring at the
end 'Shaft A' and the weight shaft in-line with the handle
"Shaft B".
Why is the handle 2-inches in diameter?
The 2"
knurled handle was designed for use for athletes with average to larger
hands and also for the athlete that enjoy training with oversize
bars and dumbbells to enhance their grip strength. By training
with a larger handle, you will build tremendous strength in
not only your wrists and forearms but also your hands - all
at the same time!
Why
are there two shafts and a ring on the end of each of the
shafts?
There are two shafts at a 90 degree angle to each
other so that the athlete can change the angle of resistance
when doing exercises. By changing the weight on either 'Shaft
A or B', the athlete can target different areas of a muscle
group just by changing the weight to a different shaft, or
in case of weight on Shaft B, by switching the weight in your
hand so that 'Shaft B' points in the opposite direction. The
ring at the end of 'Shaft B' is to be used to attach the Heavy
Handle to any type of pulley/universal weight machine and
used for rows, pulls and curls.

Exercises
We recommend the following exercises to build outstanding
backpressure:
Wrist
Kick-Ups
Wrist
"Kick-Ups" are perfect for developing the massive
backpressure that is absolutely essential to
arm wrestlers. Many people do this exercise with
a sledge-hammer, but with the Heavy Handle™ Dumbbell,
you get to do the exercises with the weight at different angles.
   
To
perform the exercise with the Heavy Handle, start with your
forearm resting on your leg with your wrist hanging over your
knee. With weight on Shaft A and your thumb pointing towards
the ceiling, slowly lower the weight until your wrist is bent
down towards the floor, then slowly raise the weight finishing
the movement with a "snap" (kick-up) at the end.
Wrist
Rotations
Wrist rotations have long been a favorite exercise for
Armwrestlers. Wrist rotations build the rotational strength
in the wrist that is needed to start a devastating toproll!

To perform wrist rotations with the Heavy Handle, put
the weight on Shaft B(top shaft) and rest your fore-arm on
your knee. The exercise can be done by either rotating the
weight to your outside, inside, or both to get an unbelievable
forearm pump!! Don't start too heavy!!
Concentration
Curls
Using the Heavy Handle for concentration curls (pictured
below) or for Hammer curls (not pictured), you will discover
muscles you never even knew you had! Its unique design makes
these exercises far more effective than when using traditional
dumbbells. Even better, this exercise directly
translates into more victories on the arm wrestling table!
Due to the extra torque the Heavy Handle puts on your arm,
the hardest part of this exercise is not curling the weight
but rather fighting to keep your wrist straight. This is fantastic
for arm wrestlers, because it is EXACTLY THE TYPE OF RESISTANCE
ENCOUNTERED IN A TOUGH ARM WRESTLING MATCH!!! By building
up this type of strength through training, you will absolutely
dominate your opponents!
   
While seated on the edge of a chair or bench, place your elbow
against your inner thigh with the weight plates on Shaft A
. With a strict controlled movement, lower the weight until
your arm is straight, then lift it back to the starting position
while 'concentrating' on bringing your forearm tight to your
biceps.
