Imagine the following💭

It’s 4PM. You and the boys (or gals) get off work and decide to try the new gym in town🏋️‍♀️

You scan the QR code on the door and are inside in 2 minutes flat. It’s Monday, (international chest day🍒) and you are looking for your piece of that pie.

You step onto the lifting floor expecting the typical; a bench press, some dbs, and maybe a pec fly. But, whoa, wait a minute. You are struck with the shear imposing presence of more than 7 separate pressing machines, 2 unique pec flys, DBs up to 150, and more plates than a prime Larry Allen could put up at the Golden Corrall🥩

You close your eyes thinking to yourself, “Am I dreaming?”

They open. It’s not a dream. It’s Iron Gorilla Barbell.

Glossing over the low hanging jokes about cranking hog and developing that gorilla grip, here at Iron Gorilla Barbell, we take grip and rip seriously🫡

That’s why we provide our members every possible tool to develop bone crushing grip strength and absurd forearm development. With the kit we carry, you can load every possible wrist and forearm motion (flexion, extension, pronation, supination, ulnar deviation, radial deviation).

Happy hog cranking👊
