IRON GLOVES All Pro Gripp Hand Strengthener

I love these things. I’m on my third or fourth at this point. I have one at the house and one at work. Years ago, I started out with a lighter weight, but moved up the the 2lb. They will wear out, after what I consider to be a reasonable amount of use, but that is as expected and, as long as it is not “accidentally” punctured by your younger brother, should give you your monies worth.

Good for making your hands strong. Bad for lasting long. It's just like the 1lb version, the skin will get worn, rip, expose the underlayering and repeat until you reach the fun core of sandy stuff. It's nice for working on grip, but I find that a better item is sold at this store five below dot com. Google it as "five below store" and you'll see it under medicine balls. It's 3 lbs and the skin is much more durable. The best part is that it is $5 and under :-D. Save some cash and have a long lasting ball. Just don't expect to palm it as easy as this one. Hope that helps.

It works great once you get it broke in. My main beef is that the rubber is going to break down and I don't know if I'll get my money's worth out of it. My suggestion is to only use it with dry and clean hands and keep it clean and dry.

These fantastic Gripp balls enable folks to work-out and strengthen hands and forearms. These balls work well for rehabilitation and strengthening. But they are big, so those with mid to small hands should try the 1 LB version. While Gripp-ing, just to lighten the mood, you may find it fun to hum to classics on ACDC's  Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap . Squeezing these balls reminds me of milking our old ranch's big milch-cow. The barn cats lined up, meowing in anticipation for a shot of warm milk onto their whiskery faces. Highly recommended, you can't go wrong with Gripp balls.

The Gripp hand strengthener is the only product out there I could find that does everything I need it to do. It not only strengthens, but also helps relieve some pain related to arthritis. It does have a durability issue though. I hope the manufacturer tries to remedy this. For now, I recommend buying more than one because you will like this product.

I really do like it. This is my second one and I use it almost daily, however the outer skin deteriorates quickly and the pellets inside breakdown and the ball loses its tension. Thus, the harder one uses it the sooner a new one must be bought. Obviously, I will buy it again.

I got this to help strenthen my grip and boy has it helped. It is great when you are at the computer, wathcing TV or reading you can just squeeze away. And it works while you are walking too, just don't try it while riding your bike. LOL

I bought this to replace the one that finally wore thin. I like that the ball weighs 2# and you can feel some heft to it. I have been using this brand for several years now. They are a bit expensive and only last a couple of years. But I keep one in the truck and am happy with it.
