Why do you have a Stronger grip when the wrist is extended as compared to when the wrist is flexed?
It's about Strength Potential.
When your muscles contract and shorten to flex the wrist, they lose the potential to contract more, thus they lose the abililty to create a stronger grip past a certain level.
As grip is mostly a function of the muscles that flex, thus the more flexed your are, the less strength potential you have.
