Christmas is a time of hope. We rejoice in the good news of the season. Please remember the needy as you carry out your holiday plans and give generously to those who are less fortunate.
IronMind has gifts of all sizes—big, small and in between—for the strength athletes in your life. A good place to start is with our terrific items for under $20 where you can choose from a pile of presents that are sure to please. And don’t forget our hand health products for everyone who uses their hands (and that is just about everyone).
Browse in our e-store for:
• Books – a good book delivers high value with over-the-top information and inspiration. From grip training to Olympic-style weightlifting, we offer the best.
• MILO – a MILO subscription is a year-long gift . . . and a lifetime investment in one’s strength goals. Or pick any of our 67 issues and introduce someone to a world of strength unavailable anywhere else. One or two issues will bring a lot of smiles.
• Crushed-to-Dust!® Grip Tools – “Get a Captains of Crush® Gripper” is the best first step to a strong grip, we say; but you’ll want to check out the foremost grip strength and hand health products in the world—right here at IronMind.
• Training Gear – IronMind’s competition-grade line-up of lifting straps has two bulked-up additions, and our gym bags and performance wear are sharp-looking and eminently useful.
• Gym Equipment – if you’re thinking big and strong, you’ve come to the right place; take a look at our new standalone Command Chinning Bar, among other weight-worthy options.
• Just Protein® – the name says it all and if you’re thinking strength and health, there’s no better way to toast the New Year than with a shaker full of Just Protein.
• Hand Health – if you have parents, children, brothers and sisters, and friends, then you have someone who can benefit greatly from our hand health products; find out what we mean by EGG & Bands.
• Gift Certificate – don’t know what to choose? No matter, because an IronMind Gift Certificate allows you to select the right amount and the lucky person can select the perfect gift, and it’s quick and easy—a certain winner.
Please feel free to call or email if you have a question—we’re ready to help you make the right choices.
IronMind wishes everyone a joyous Christmas and a strong and healthy New Year!

The IronMind Red Nail Roster was established in 1995 and while bending styles have evolved considerably since then as the popularity of the challenge has soared, officially bending an IronMind Red Nail remains the international benchmark for short steel bending: Today, Sergiy Sholom has joined this elite group.

Sergiy Sholom said he was inspired by the feats of strength performed by Russian strongmen and now he’s joined that tradition himself as he has officially bent an IronMind Red Nail. IronMind® | Courtesy of Sergiy Sholom. more... >
