      There is something significant and profound about the way another man shakes your hand. Be it your father, friend or potential client, there are ways of decoding someone through their handshake. What does a handshake say about you? Everything. Your handshake can imply a steely confidence or an unassertive insecurity.
      Knowing how to shake a hand properly is a forgotten art. Men have failed to teach others a genuine shake because they fail to realize its importance. Notice how great leaders shake with authority -- power and command amplified through their right hand. What kind of authority is in your handshake?

      What a weak shake means
      A weak handshake screams a frail inner core. The firmness of your grasp helps someone determine your inner circuitry -- your character, or lack thereof. During an interview, the employer will use many tactics to decide if you are fit for work, and the handshake is often a litmus test right at the beginning. Considering the investment employers make in someone, it is obvious that none would want “weak” in their future.

      The bone-crushing grip
      How should a handshake with too much power be judged? In truth, just as harshly as a delicate shake, if not more so. When someone shakes too hard or for too long, it suggests negative excess or overcompensation. It makes some wonder what the death grip is compensating for. At least with someone with a weak handshake, there can be no question about how they present themselves.

      i hate it when a guy clamps down before you get all the way in and it ends up being a finger shake. i always say "lets do that again" of when somebody's hands are anywhere from clammy to wet.

      at the gym i give knuckle bumps as some guys hands are soaked in sweat.

      I try not to handshake a hello is just as good or whats up.I dont need your hand that you wrap your dick around then want to handshake me. Or right after you took a shit in a public bathroom. Honestly I usualy do the fist bump mor knuckle bump what ever you call it. Ive had handshake in the past and yeah you got people who will see a guy like me 250lb and do the king kong hand shake and then you will have people grab your fingers so I say none at all. And when they do try and handshake I say nope just a bump will do.

      LOL...Fist bumping is so much more sanitary. The worst thing is in a restaurant. People wash their hands before they sit down to eat and I think it is rude to walk up to their table and shake their hand while they are eating. If I see someone in a restaurant , I say "Youre eating so here " as I give a fist bump
