Out of the eight total skills you possess in Grand Theft Auto Online, strength is quite possibly the most important one and one of the most difficult to raise.
It causes you to climb faster, able to receive more damage which happens quite frequently. Melee weapons like bats and knives will become even more deadly with a higher strength skill and you'll be able to jump off of taller structures and not worry about seeing 75 percent of your health bar depleted.
With no gym memberships in the site, you'll have to get creative when it comes to maxing out this skill. Here are 10 Pro Tips To Increase Your Strength. And a few tips for golf too.
10 Contact Missions
Most contact missions allow you to roam the streets of Grand Theft Auto with the ability to commit as many crimes as you'd like without having to worry about fighting off a four-star wanted level.
Pull up your phone and request a job with Gerald. Most of Gerald's contact missions will do with 'Pier Pressure' and 'Death Metal' being some of the better ones for your strength workouts. Once in, all you have to do is run around punching and kicking everything you see with no worries of any pesky officers hunting you down.
9 Golfing
With nine holes, you can hit the links by yourself or with some buddies all while doing your best impressions of Happy Gilmore. Plus, you'll receive a nice chunk of cash and RP following the game especially if you're playing against others and win.
Located in Los Santos just above a two-car garage, this is the only course you'll find and be able to sharpen your putting skills at.
Pro tip: The sixth hole is your best shot at impressing everybody by scoring a hole in one.
8 Arm Wrestling
Arm Wrestling will also boost your strength. While you will need to partner up with someone with quick games of you and a friend aggressively shaking your right thumbsticks back and forth until one of your arms smashes down on the table.
Tables can be found in several MC Clubhouses with another table located at the Yellow Jack Inn in the Grand Senora Desert.
7 Death Match
Another way to boost this stat while playing on your own is to head into the content creator accessed through the online menu. Once you're there, create a death match with a boatload of spawn points relatively close to each other. With a high score limit, assure that the AI you're taking on is unarmed while maxing out the number of players in your match. Begin the test and assault all the players surrounding you until you've finished your training.
6 Motorcycle Club
For this one, you'll need to be a member of a motorcycle club. Becoming a president is pretty simple. All you'll need to do is purchase a clubhouse from Maze Bank and begin riding. If you'd rather just get to work as a prospect, set yourself as 'Looking for an MC' in your interaction menu and you'll be an eventual member of a club in no time.
During one of the missions, you'll be tasked with locating a contact and have to interrogate him. While fighting with him, continue attacking him while he's on the ground and he will remain alive. Keep kicking him down each time he attempts to stand back up until you're finished and then locate the van to finish the resupply mission after that.
5 Tennis
Similar to golf, tennis will also increase the player's strength. While it takes a bit of time, it is a relaxing change of pace from the regular acts of racing through the downtown streets of Los Santos evading gunfire. There are several tennis courts scattered throughout the entire city and are easily accessible through your map.
4 Binco
This skill-boosting technique requires patience from a friend and your determination to fight a frozen character not named Olaf. Have your online pal visit the local clothing store and wait until they're in changing outfit menu. Once they're there, visit them while they're trying to keep up with the latest trends and they should be invincible to all incoming attacks. Begin using them as a punching bag until you've maxed the stat - or until they've found the alien suit.
3 Fight Club
For every 20 hits you dish out, your skill will be raised by one percent. If you like not talking about fight club, round up some friends and start throwing punches. After about five or ten minutes of punching, you'll see your stat begin to grow. Or you could just run around town leaving a trail of angry, bruised pedestrians chasing you through Los Santos.
2 Lifestyle
A way to improve your strength before you've even set foot online is by creating a new character. You'll come across a Lifestyle section in which you can determine what your character is doing throughout a 24 hour period.
After you've focused your style onto the being asleep, playing sports & working out sections, you'll begin with a character who's strength is already increased.
1 Vespucci Beach
The most common way of building up this skill is by heading over to a populated area exploding with pedestrians. Vespucci Beach and Del Perro Pier are perfect locations.
Once you've arrived there, begin punching and kicking every sunbather and selfie-taking couple you can find. Avoid the police who will certainly be on the scene and once you've lost them, return to the area once everybody has forgotten about your beach boxing sessions and do it all again.
