In the order from the the closest to the most distant in relatedness, they are: Weak Standard Grip (the present topic), <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-idling-thumb-grip\/\">Idling Thumb Grip<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-chicken-claws-grip\/\">Chicken Claws Grip<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But technically the Weak Standard grip is not an <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/family-tree-of-alternative-grips\/\">alternative grip<\/a>, unlike Idling Thumb and Chicken Claws. Its users do already practice the right Standard Grip finger postures and alternating motion. The weakness stems from a lapse in upholding key principles of Standard Grip, in stressful situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Negligence_of_the_1-on-2-support\"><\/span>Negligence of the 1-on-2-support<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The lapse in engaging the thumb tip in twirling the top chopstick is not the only cause for a weak standard grip. There are other ways to weaken the standard grip. The following slow-motion clip shows a different user who can generate enough compression force, to confidently close salad tongs. The tip segment of the thumb properly engages the index finger and the middle finger to twirl the top chopstick. However, as we will see later, opening chopsticks under stress is a different matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/User-5-Weak-Standard-Grip-closing-salad-tongs-under-medium-compression-front-view-IMG_7470-640x587-15fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/User-5-Weak-Standard-Grip-closing-salad-tongs-under-medium-compression-front-view-IMG_7470-640x587-15fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 5 - Weak Standard Grip - closing salad tongs under medium compression - front view - IMG_7470 640x587 15fps\" class=\"wp-image-1085\" width=\"320\" height=\"294\"\/><\/a><figcaption>User 5 closing salad tongs<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The following video clip on the left is a slow motion capture of the same user prying open salad tongs. Note how the user starts out with the standard grip finger configuration, for the bottom chopstick. But very little extension strength is generated, because the thumb and the ring finger have temporarily forgotten how to securely hold the bottom chopstick in place, using the 1-on-2-point-support principles. As an alternative, the user reconfigures the ring finger to adopt the <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-vulcan-grip\/\">Vulcan Grip<\/a> instead, in a successful attempt to gain purchase. Compare the left clip to the Vulcan Grip picture to the right. This gain comes at great costs &#8211; see the <a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/the-vulcan-grip\/\">Vulcan Grip<\/a> article for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/User-5-Weak-Standard-Grip-opening-salad-tongs-under-medium-tension-side-view-becomes-pulp-first-grip-slomo-IMG_7471-640x551-10fps.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/User-5-Weak-Standard-Grip-opening-salad-tongs-under-medium-tension-side-view-becomes-pulp-first-grip-slomo-IMG_7471-640x551-10fps.gif\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - User 5 - Weak Standard Grip - opening salad tongs under medium tension - side view - becomes pulp-first grip - slomo - IMG_7471 640x551 10fps\" class=\"wp-image-1086\" width=\"280\" height=\"250\"\/><\/a><figcaption>User 5 opening salad tongs<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Pulp-first-Grip-1-closed-posture-IMG_3401.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/marcosticks.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Pulp-first-Grip-1-closed-posture-IMG_3401-946x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Chopsticks Marcosticks - Vulcan Grip - Closed Posture\" class=\"wp-image-1089\" width=\"225\" height=\"256\"\/><\/a><figcaption>Vulcan Grip<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Learn_new_grips\"><\/span>Learn new grips<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Users of a weak standard grip can adopt the (stronger) standard grip by first identifying their weaknesses via the salad tongs test.
