Grip training to palm a basketball...

Has anyone heard of/accomplished successful training of hand grip stength to be able to palm a basketball (starting from a point of not being able to palm a bball at all)? If so, what was the protocol?

I have average to slightly small hands, but I also know I have crappy grip stength, so I know there is much room for improvement.

Thanks in advance!

  • COC training
  • Heavy deadlifts
  • Plate holds
  • Farmer walks
  • All kinds of rows, chins and pull ups

coc training???

I think COC training is referring to the Captains Of Crush handgrippers that come in varying degrees of tension. IronMind sells seven versions and here are the poundages:

No. 1: 140 lb
No. 2: 195 lb
No. 3: 280 lb
No. 4: 365 lb
