Prior to his involvement in Grip Sport, Zach Staniewicz pursued a professional career in baseball. Through the highs and lows and decades of effort Zach's dream of playing in the Major Leagues came to an end but not due to a lack of effort.

With baseball being over Zach refocused his drive to strength training and started to have more dedicated time to train his grip and continue to learn more about Grip Strength History and Organizations contesting grip. From his first competition, to achieving major grip milestones in training, Zach takes us on the encounters he's had with grip legends and regular everyday people alike that led him to pursue filling a void in the United States Grip Scene.

Zach's current catalog under the Staniewicz Strength Equipment title offers several lighter weight Inch Dumbells, a Fatman Blob Replica, a lighter Blob, and an Anvil Trainer that was cast from a true anvil horn.
