About a year ago, I was working out with my buddy Tom DeVietro. Before my first set of 1-arm dumbbell bench press, he handed me an empty shaker bottle.
"What's this for?" I asked him.
"Squeeze it," he said.
So I did (with the hand of my non-working arm). And what do you know, I felt stronger and more stable than I ever had before when performing the exercise. I was hooked.
The science behind the squeeze is a principle called "irradiation." Curious about how it worked, I delved deeper into the research and experimented with it over the next few months.
Read all about my findings, including which exercises to irradiate on -- and which exercise not to -- in my new article for Muscle & Strength, 'Irradiation: How Your Fist Can Instantly Make You Stronger:'
