How can your thumb and forefinger be stronger than my shoulder pulling my arm back in? Or actually, turning my arm and pushing toward you attacking your own wrist. If you don't let go it breaks.
No offense, but I've met more than one or two freaks in my years of wrestling that have grip strength that makes it VERY difficult to perform standard wrist grab escapes on them. You really can't underestimate grip strength because it's usually the weakest link in the chain. If your grip breaks, then the rest of what you're doing frequently becomes kind of useless and may even open you up. This obviously depends, but hey...
Do you guys use "hooks?" Most wrestling control grips from standing aren't "grabbing"--you make your whole hand like a meathook and use that instead to get your moves.
Just curious.
