Hand Strength Reduces the Rate of Aging ...October 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
According to Dr. Oz and You: Staying Young: The Owner's Manual for Extending Your Warranty (You), hand strength reduces the rate of aging ... so this was one of several products I purchased as I implemented the Staying Young program.
I am extremely happy with the construction of the product, the size, and the usability. Everyone in my family messes around with it when they see it setting around so I'll be buying the next levels up for them: Gripmaster Hand Exerciser Blue, Light Tension (5-Pounds per Finger) and Gripmaster Hand Exerciser Red, Medium Tension (7-Pounds per Finger) and Gripmaster Hand Exerciser Black, Heavy Tension (9-Pounds per Finger).
I am in my mid-40s and not the "strongest tool in the box" so I purchased this extra-light tension version so as to not inadvertently cause damage to any muscles, tendons, or ligaments. I made the right call with this tension level and enjoy using this device while I'm on my daily walks. Because you use the fingers separately or together, it gives you many more options for hand strengthening than the more typical grippers. Also, the package includes a glossy page of different exercises that you can do.
The product came exactly as pictured. It's inexpensive, durable, attractive, and seems like you would use it forever (who doesn't have an opportunity to sit around a squeeze with your hands?) -- so I put this on the "everyone should get one" list.
Bon Appetit!

Helping HandsOctober 6, 2008 My recently purchased Gripmaster Hand Exerciser has been a real boon for easing the arthritis stiffness in my fingers and wrists. Years of weeding the garden, working with clay and in general not caring for my joints finally has taken it's toll, and my fingers were rather inflexible. Using this little gadget has really helped me to regain mobility in the joints, and it's so easy to use when watching TV, etc. The X-Light tension is perfect for this 80 year old, so I bought the heavy duty one for my 16 year old grandson, who plays a lot of sports, and it has improved his tennis & golf grip as well.
Versatile hand-strengthening toolOctober 3, 2008 This is a versatile tool for building strength in your grip and individual fingers. There are several different exercises included on an instruction sheet. There are different tensions available as you gain a better grip.
