I just think at some point in my life, there is going to be a wonderful comedic opportunity to crush an apple and I should learn how or train now. e: Anybody else have any ridiculous goals right now?

I'm on a similar journey. I want to crush walnuts. I'm a desk worker, so I got a set of grip strength trainers and just use them when I'm in Zoom meetings. I can almost close a 200lb gripper after about 8 months of sustained effort. I've started using a light gripper to increase my thumb and pointer finger pinching strength now too. I'm going to have to see if I can squash an apple now.

Well? It doesnt take that long to get an apple.

Trip report: Not strong enough to crush a Royal Gala, but I can feel it flexing a little!

A most laudable goal indeed friend!

I would like to suggest you incorporate the silicone grip rings.
