 Great for people that work at a desk all day. | |
| I started a new job where I had to work at a desk all day and I noticed I was having problems with circulation. When I woke up, my arm/hand would be "asleep" and would take 3-4 minutes before I could even move it.
I started using a store brand gripper and it was pretty good, by after I got to 50+ rep on it, I got bored. I purchased the Trainer(100lb) and I've noticed that I no longer have circulation problems and my hands & arms are noticably stronger. I'm now ready to move to No. 1 and can't wait to get it. The only criticism I have is the grip is not comfortable. I had to wet sand the metal grip, so it didn't hurt my hands when I used it. Also, it would be nice if they could curve the grip, so your pinky could fit around it easily. I Highly recommend this to anyone wanting to relieve stress or build hand/forearm strength.

 The Ferrari of Hand Grips!!! | |
| If you are really serious about hand grips, and you want something that is not your standard sport shop model, this is where to go. I got the Trainer, and for someone like myself that has been using hand grips since childhood, it was too easy. Then I got #1 and that was tuff; but I decided to get #2 and #3 as well. I have just recently graduated from #1 and using #2, and maybe in a year or more I can go to #3 and get certified.
Let me tell you this, if you can squeeze #2 at least once all the way, you are good. You can't really understand what I am trying to tell unless you get one. So if you are person that has never used hand grips regularly if at all, then go with the Trainer. If you have been using hand grips for awhile, and looking for something harder, then get the #1. Remember to always squeeze hard!!! |
