After talking to the person I know I recognized that chin ups cannot work for small/light people for grip very well unless you can go to failure.
What I posted were techniques to go to failure easily especially for those struggling with their fitness and who are heavier.
My grip sucked...
PMedMoe I can see grammar and spelling mistakes in yours and other people's posts but we are all human. Hopefully, you'll realize that when you log off this forum and stop power tripping.
I talked to a Sgt I know who works at a CFRC and AES op is indeed available to the best of his knowledge to...
1) Your search is trying to search for grade 10 jobs that are in all three elements. Click off the elements and search again as shown in screen shots earlier in this thread.
2) The article about grade 10 AES op openings is in fact on the CF website. That is what I linked, but no one seems to...
Your not arguing with me, your arguing with the Canadian Forces. You should perhaps tell the Canadian Forces that they are wrong and you are correct. I think you are more experienced then those bastards who are lying to recruits on that propagandist website that they call forces.ca.
Tell em...
Actually, your incorrect the standards were changed.
For more information read the Canadian Forces recruiting website located here:

I have made three posts now saying why hanging from a bar is not an exercise but a gauge. When you hang form a chin up bar with your hands sideways or facing away from you, you are squeezing your hands around the bar(s). The stronger your grip is the longer you can hold on. Without grip, you...
I was just providing tips on how to improve grip strength which, is what chin ups practically are best for.
That or you can work as a carpenter hitting nails all day. They'll crush your hands with their grip. But I doubt that's a sound way to improve grip.
???
I thought it was the grip strength super thread where you either ask questions or post tips/advice.
Isn't this the thread for all the information you can get for grip strength?
I didn't say grip strength improving by holding onto a bar. I said doing it as a gauge for what you can do since not many people hold the tools to measure their grip like the CF.
Hanging from a bar isn't for improvement just to gauge your ability.
The chin ups part is just from my personal trainer who got his masters in kinesiology. I went from 0 chin ups in a month to 10 chin ups and my grip getting very strong and my balance on push ups and bench getting a lot better...
Congrats on the CFAT but that sucks to hear about the interview. I would be seriously down if someone said that an interview with me would be useless.
Good luck on the wait at least it's time to get more in shape and impress in your training as well as preparing for your interview and...
One of the exercises I do to help treading power and length is I tread with a 10 lb disc in the water for as long as I can and keep my shoulders out of the water.
Floating has always been easy for me but I am not sure how that will be if it's done in combats as I have never tried to float with...
If you can hold yourself on a pull up bar for 60 seconds and your weight is over 75kg you can most likely pass the grip strength test.
The best way to prepare for the test is chin ups. Screw farmer's walks they barely do anything when I did them. Chin ups improve your grip vastly especially if...
For the issue of cadets, I am just saying this out of experience from CFRC and the reserve unit. I was the one who took the bullet as one might say to find out the tip. From my personal experience while people can forget things this actual event of mentioning cadets without the full...
Give me about an hour. To be honest I cannot find the exact link with all the forces at the website at the moment. Maybe it had been an incorrect report like you had suggested. The about website looks official I didn't know it was as unofficial as wikipedia.
However, I did find the # of...
