>Hi anon how are you doing? *shows hand for handshake*
>gives you firm handshake with insane grip strength and fricks your hand up so you look like a beta b***h boy
I used to deadlift 485 for 1RM with no straps but why is my grip strength so shit that I get handshake mogged to oblivion by boomers?
Lifts to avoid this happening?

just squeeze back
Bootstrap pulls until failure should fix it.
>Bootstrap pulls
Huh
Kek, he's referring to the boomer saying that you should pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Love that you actually googled this.
lmao.
my brother in law does this, he's kind of country. i assume someone told him to not have a weak handshake or you'll look weak. it's hard enough to where people have talked about it when he's not around
what's your can-do 1RM?
>I used to
Remember when is the lowest form of conversation. You don't get participation trophies irl so now is probably a good time to go ahead and pull the tampon out.
just get a gripper
my gf told me her friend said I was trying to show dominance by crushing his hand when we shook hands, in reality I thought I was giving a polite, gentle yet firm handshake
he's a gymbro too with bigger arms than me, but I am a tradie who does the grippers and can close 200lbs
>in reality I thought I was giving a polite, gentle yet firm handshake
Same. Recently finished working on a job with a guy who was once 3 times county powerlifting champ in the 168lb class.
We shake hands goodbye.
>"Frickin' hell anon you've got a grip like a fricking vice!"
56 yo boomer.
>56 yo boomer.
Why are you here
Salarfinnit?
Also, a little trick I learned as a teenager is, if you think someone is gonna try and crush your hand, push your middle finger inwards slightly as you shake.
This stacks your knuckles together instead of rolling them over each other, so it doesn't matter even if the strongest man in the world uses two hands with everything he's got, it has no effect.
It makes them look ridiculous.
Try it. Once you suss out how to do it, it really fricks with people.
>be bomer
>entire concept of masculinity based on trying to break people's fingers and hating "the wife"
Ahh frick idk.
you got soft hands boy
boomers think painfully gripping somebody's hand is a flex, there are these bodylanguage books that show examples of certain handshakes between politicians/worldleaders and they are legit practiced in doing these fencing-tier moves in order to have a "dominant" handshake and play games like a homosexual. they think doing some kind of anime battle with their hand in 1.5 second will mog the other and therefore have them submit.
just do the power move. give them the old two handed clasping handshake. bonus points if you can put them in a subtle wristlock during.
Two hand clasp, shake vigorously and keep bowing lightly.
Don't let go until they put their other hand on you.
Did you use double head for your warm ups? Did you do pull ups?
I give wimpy handshakes i dont give a frick
I actually trained grip specifically to frick with kids who do this this immature shit. I never grip first, but if they do, I make sure they never try it again. Just doing my part.
If they squeeze like they're trying to dominate you go in for the hand kiss. Give the man what he wants.
Because they are moronic and try to hurt you with intent in a gesture that is supposed to be a sign of mutual respect. You aren't supposed to squeeze, a firm handshake is just that, firm. There's no crushing concentric involved, it's mostly isometric. I don't respect you for doing stupid ape tricks on unsuspecting people.
Not had this happen in a long time, and I hereby pledge that the next moron that tries to death grip me gets yanked as if I am about to do a sloppy DB row.

Upset about something little guy?
Jared Leto before he was Joker
The only people who do this are highschoolers and naive business major guys with little to no experience. It's a noob flag in the business world.
Just let em squeeze, it feels kinda homosexual squeezing back
King of the hill taught me the wriggler
Use that one on anyone you don't like, little palm tickle you get me?
