Heavy Grips Hand Grippers - Set of 3 Non-Slip - 100lb, 150lb, 200lb – Effectively Train Your Hand Grip Strength - Targeted Forearm, Wrist & Hand Exercises – Advanced Hand Grip Strengtheners

I lift weights and am reasonably strong, but I wanted to work on my grip strength, not just for the obvious reasons (nice looking forearms, useful grip), but if you weren't aware, training grip strength helps keep your wrists, elbows, and shoulders from getting injured - when I used to bench straight bar all the time I would get pretty bad elbow pain unless I also trained grip at least twice a week. These are great, for $30 its a bargain. The 100lbs when I first started I could do for 15 reps right off the bat, which is about where you want to start at, 10-15 reps. I find forearms respond better to higher reps, there's no real reason to do 4-6 reps as an exercise unless you're just seeing where you are strength wise. Could close the 150lbs one to within a 1/2 mm the first time, and the 200lbs I could just get parallel - so this is a great set for me. Very well made, not noisy like some of these are, and the knurling is great for grip, and toughening up your hands a little. 5 stars from me, if you haven't trained with grip trainers before, or aren't really strong already (bricklayers, I'd get something heavier :)), this is what I would get.

I purchased the 100, 150 and 200 and also the 250, 300 and 350 Let me start off by saying that I have pretty intense forearms and grip to begin with. I have 50, 60, 90 and 100 lb rubber rings that I squeeze alot. I broke the 100lb ring and decided that I needed to revert to metal. I would have gone to these in the first place if I had known about them! Very good value and very good quality. Every heavy grip comes with a lifetime warranty. I see reviews complaining that something broke, well get a replacement for life! I had no problems at all with my grippers. They were right in-line with their rated spec weight. Because I had already been doing the rings etc the 100lb was not enough and I gave it to a buddy. I started with the 150 and 200. The gripper package tells you, but I will emphasize again train like you would with any other weight and you will see impressive gains in your hand strength. 10-12 reps and then do the higher weight 10-12 and then drop to the lower weight and do 10-12 more reps. Negatives or using your non gripping hand to assist squeezing then slowly releasing with your gripper hand works too. Then give yourself a day to recover. So I started with the 150 and 200 and in 5-6 days (or my 2nd or 3rd session) I started integrating the negative 250 lbs down to the 150. After about 8-9 days I am only using the 200 and 250. I did a bunch of reps with the 150 for the heck of it earlier after a set with the 250 and 200 though. I plan on starting to integrate the 300 with negatives in another 5-7 days. When you get to the point of doing the 200, 250, 300 or 350 no one will have a stronger grip than you. I squeeze my reps with the 250 and no one that I work with can come close to squeezing it once. A guy who I work with saw the 250 in the drawer at work and picked it up and tried to squeeze it. He looked at me and was in disbelief that I squeezed the thing (He actually didn't believe that I did until I grabbed it from him and knocked out 10 reps) You get to the 200 or 250 and Popeye will have nothing on you. Beyond that and you need to be very careful when you shake other peoples hands. Great quality grippers delivered promptly and inexpensively. I highly recommend.

Very happy with the product. Well made, seems like they will last a long time. I'm working my way up to the heaviest pair. I have definitely noticed results in my forearm size in a couple of months, using twice a week. The resistance levels are great for your average, physically fit guy... a great starting point for a first set. The grips are a little rough on the skin and will give you calluses on the inside of your pinky finger.. but you could always where gloves if this is an issue for you. Happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend!

I dont think the ratings are even close to advertised resistance BUT they will improve your hand strength

I have a set of grips that look like these that I bought a couple of years ago. They are 50, 100, and 150 though. So when I started looking for a set for my son I wanted the same ones. These look identical to mine except they are 100, 150, and 200. I took a chance and figured he could build up to the 100, or could borrow my 50 for a while if needed. When we opened them I realized right away the handles were made out of a much lighter material. Of course he had to grab the heaviest one first and managed to squeeze the 200 completely closed a couple of times. When I tried it I realized another big difference, these were much easier to close than the ones I have. Don't get me wrong, they look like they are well built and should last a long time. And it will be a while before he needs anything heavier. I'm still giving these five stars even though the weights are way off from mine, maybe it's mine that are wrong. Some people might think the lighter material on the grips is a positive so no points off for that either. For what it's worth, my son is in his late 20's, works out a lot and these should be a challenge for him for some time.

Great product best hand grippers I ve ever used i ve had 2 of thrm for many years now I ve got more choice I totally recommend this product I ve broken about a dozen pairs of hand grips in half over the years these ine are built to be used and last to the maximum great job guys

Overpriced

Opinión original hecha en Mar 2021, paggu $626MXN: Comparado con ProSource (PS), que ya venia usando desde hace 1año, no puedo recomedar HeavyGrips (HG), basicamente por la razon que daña mas la mano y los ProSource son muy similares o igual en calidad y mas economicos. No es queja lo de la mano, es un comentario, ya que es normal en este tipo de productos, sin embargo HG el material hace algo mas de daño. Incluye 3: HG 100lbs, 150lbs y 200lbs. Ningún problema en el empaquetado. El de 150lbs venia del lado del resorte con la pintura negra caída o "desgastada". Los 3 venían empaquetados individualmente, cerrados en una caja. El producto HG es Made in China, a pensar que el producto es de USA, no como los Captains of Crush, que si son hechos en USA. Otro comentarios adicionales: El de HG 100lbs se siente menos resistencia que el 100lbs PS, probablemente por eso se me hace fácil cerrar el 150lbs de HG. 1 año de uso de 100lbs PS y no suena el resorte. Los HG son nuevos y los resortes de los 3 suenan, aunque puedo cerrar el 200lbs no lo he usando tanto para estar 100% seguro que suene cada vez que lo cierro. (Después de tanto uso ya no suenan los resortes) Si se compran los 3 de HG, tiene un buen precio $209 pesos cada uno. (Esto ya no aplica el precio subió mucho. Mejor ve por CoC) Actualización: los compré Mar 2021 y ahora es Mar de 2024. Ahora son 2 estrellas antes tenia 3. Aunque no he sido tan constante, ya son varias años usando el producto, y ya tengo suficiente fuerza usando los 3, 100lbs, 150lb y 200lb. No son malos, el material es bueno y te van a durar sin embargo la resistencia es totalmente mentira, no sabes que fuerza tienes. Ya lo había sospechado desde el primer uso. Mejor compra Captains of Crush. No hay comparación en calidad. Mucho después compre Captains of Crush 1.5 que son 167.5 lb y tiene más resistencia que HeavyGrips de "200 lb". Uno solo de Captains of Crush te puede costar $25 USD aprox $500 MXN. Ve por CoC. Tengo una dona de 80lb marca Iron Crush y tiene más resistencia que el de HG de 100lbs. El problema con una resistencia defectuosa radica en que cuando quieras dar el salto de 100lb a 150lbs no podrás hacerlo. El de 100lb tal vez sea 80lb y el de 150lb tal vez sea 160lb. Espero que se entienda el problema. No recomiendo HeavyGrips, la única manera de usarlo es si tienes varios Grippers y te ayudes con varias resistencias para subil de nivel (pero gastaras más dinero)

I really good product I really recommend this if your trying to take your grip strength to the next level 👍

Son pesadas, duras, nada de plástico. Fácilmente pueden durar de por vida.
