quimby Dec 2022 9:10pm, 5 Dec 2022 5,944 posts	0 quimby I do like "No Jar Lid is Safe". There's actually a gym in a church up the road from me called "Give Me Strength".
cathrobinson Dec 2022 9:34pm, 5 Dec 2022 10,611 posts	0 cathrobinson That’s a brilliant name. And yes, no Jar Lid is Safe was a particular favourite of mine too
cathrobinson Dec 2022 9:35pm, 5 Dec 2022 10,612 posts	0 cathrobinson I won’t hit 100 hrs this year but it might have to be a target for 2023 so I can see what the next badge is.

Opening jars is my least favourite thing as I don't have much strength or stretch in my hands. I usually have to resort to a kettle to help.
Meglet Dec 2022 10:29pm, 5 Dec 2022 23,144 posts	0 Meglet Alpenrose, you need a jar-key gadget. You lift the edge of the lid to release the vacuum and the lid unscrews easily!
DoricQuine Dec 2022 10:40pm, 5 Dec 2022 8,097 posts	0 DoricQuine Don't even need a tool, just hit the edge of the jar lid on something to break the vacuum. Not too hard though!

... a weights wire for women.

And in case you're wondering about that title, well, I like alliteration and one can be too po-faced about the use of girl/lady/woman.

Here's a strength standards for women thing Duracel found for us
