It’s important to match your grip strengthener to your level of hand strength and coordination. If you’re just getting started with grip training or want an easier option, hand exercise balls or therapy putty are the right option. Both fit comfortably in your hand and offer a range of resistance levels for personalized strength workouts. For a more advanced challenge, try the finger exerciser which can provide targeted training to individual fingers.

Our therapy putty is one of the most versatile, as it can engage all the muscles of the hand with a selection of simple exercises like pinching, twisting, and squeezing. The finger exerciser is another versatile option, as it allows you to isolate individual fingers and strengthen them independently. .

Each grip strengthener offers a range of resistance levels, letting you increase difficulty as grip strength improves. Be sure to start with a lower resistance level and gradually work your way up over time. See the chart above for more information on the resistance levels and scales of our grip strengtheners. .
