Finger Lifts

Back during the turn of the 20th century, with the popularity of the ‘professional strongman,’ exercises were developed to increase strength in all areas of the body. One of these moves was called finger lifts. These could be done using books varied in weight in order to strengthen one’s fingers to grab weights better. Although this may seem like common sense, you won’t see people doing exercises like this at the gym or even in their own homes. Today, people want visible results, and nobody is picking up girls at the gym by doing finger lifts… or are they?
