...these are not numbered properly. In order from easiest to hardest, it's:1. Yellow2. Red3. Green4. Blue5. BlackKeep a set of these at your desk and one in your car.Yellow is easy. Want to progress? Simple. Adopt a light-light-heavy program. On day 1, do 20-75 repetitions for 3 sets. ex. 30 reps in about 30 seconds and then switch hands and repeat. Do for three sets. Then, do a set of 30 for each thumb-finger combination, switching hands after each set. ex. rt thumb and right forefinger, then repeat on left hand. Do for all fingers. Do a light day, rest a day, then do another light day, rest a day, and on the third day, do the same thing, only instead of 1 rep per second, slow it down to 1 second to open the hand, and then slowly take off tension over a period of 3-4 seconds.When you can do 3 sets of 75, along with thumb-to-finger sets of 75 with the band across the nail, then move up to the next band.Protip: If you can do it with the band placed atop your nails, MOVE IT DOWN TO THE FIRST KNUCKLE. Find a spot where you can do it and then work your way (over a few weeks or months) all the way up to having the band at the edges of fingers (across the nails).

I just got these on a recommendation for muscle tightness. This helps me to work out the strain from using the computer all day at work in both mousing and keyboarding. I just got theses bands and like them. The stretching is making a difference. I do 3 minutes per hand each hour. I am only on the extra light (yellow) band but it is making a difference.I like that they come in five different bands so I have room to improve.

I bought these to continue my hand PT at home for CMC thumb surgery. I can barely use the weakest band (yellow). My husband, who has extremely strong hands and fingers, can barely use the stronger bands. I think all of the bands need to be make weaker. I doubt I will ever progress past the yellow band. Thank goodness they weren't expensive. I thought they'd be better than the rubber band my physical therapist originally suggested. Oh well.

Works very well for building the extensor muscles. And fixed a nagging elbow pain. Only down fall is diameter of bands good be troublesome for smaller handed people

These are great! I started out using thick rubber bands and they don’t stay in place like these. I also like how I was able to order the different levels in one pack so I am able to progress as I get stronger. I highly recommend.

Slippery at first but the slickness goes away with a little usage. Find the one you settle into via the variety pack, then you can get 5 of the same. Love the option to buy 5 of one type.

I got these for my grand daughter who has carpel tunnel syndrome. She just started using them but she said it did seem to make her hand and wrist stronger.

So much better than just rubber bands that end up breaking and these are very soft on the fingers. They are also very durable and effective for hand strengthening exercises.
