The Gripmaster Pro isolates and strengthens each finger individually, helping you improve your overall strength, endurance, and dexterity. A few daily workouts with the Gripmaster Pro and you'll enjoy better control of a baseball/softball bat, tennis racquet, or golf club, with each finger working in seamless unity with the others. You'll also find a ton of other uses for the Gripmaster Pro, including playing guitar or violin, rock climbing, bowling, target shooting, martial arts, yoga, or even relieving stress while clicking a mouse or gaming for hours on end. To keep things interesting and to accommodate certain uses, the company recommends several different exercises, including the "fingertip pinch," "flatfist," "powergrip," "wristflex," and "thumbpinch," most of which are explained on the Gripmaster website. Best of all, you can work out anytime and anywhere with the Gripmaster Pro, which fits neatly in your pocket when not in use. This particular version of the Gripmaster Pro offers a heavy tension of 9 pounds per finger--a recommended tension for strong hands.

 Gripmaster Pro is in May 21, 2010
Michael J. Fields (Appleton, WI.)
I love this little device. I only purchased it to build my fingers up for better typing and it did just that, but it did more. I have stronger hands, fingers, and people are afraid to shake my hands. I think that's their way of telling me to move up to the extra heavy tension. I might just do that. Highly recommended.
It Just Works April 24, 2010
Keith H. Breen (New Haven, CT USA)
Hand exercise is nothing new to me, neither is most other types of exercise or workout. But the loss of hand movement is a scary thing.
This time around I damaged a nerve causing severe restricted finger movement. So I forced myself to move the fingers as much as was possible. As the nerve repaired, finger movement restored slowly (1/32" or less a day). I believe my constant aggression may have helped. But during this time my fingers became lapse from their 'sleep' time and needed to be worked back to normal, and muscle memory re-gained.
Since I utilize single fingers, some fingers more than others, this exercise devise not only got each finger up to speed it improved their use like never before... Needless to say, if you don't do it it won't get done. And that's just the way it is.
For those familiar with regular squeeze devices, this device can perform that way also, naturally.
Does it work? Does it help? Without a doubt.
The only choice to be made is the amount of resistance in pounds you require. I started with 9 pounds dubbed Heavy tension. After the fact I went and got the 7 pounder. I gave it away. But that's me.
There's a plus of portability. I didn't mention this but your regular hand squeeze devices have a varying grip and are problematic to smaller sized hands. The Gripmaster doesn't have this drawback at all, small, medium or large hands. All are good with this one device.
 Good hand exercise but a bit cumbersome April 18, 2010
Michael Spellberg (Boston, MA USA)
The gripmaster pro works the muscles of the hand and forearm well but for someone who has small hands,I find the pro version is a bit too big. The regular version fit my hand better but if you have average or big hands, the pro version would be right for you.
Excellent Product March 9, 2010
Greg Derose
I had 2 of these gripmasters from about 8 years ago. One of em I lost a long time ago, but the heavy tension traditional black model gripmaster i had held up under almost constant use the entire time, until about a month ago when the little internal plastic spacers started breaking out and it became very hard to use(although still usable). These new ones seem much higher quality, and although the pad for your palm on the back is taking a little getting used to, I am liking them very much. Excellent Workmanship, excellent product.
I suggest you buy a lower tension to start or buy 2. February 20, 2010
James B. Bendtsen (Twin Cities, MN.)
I'm 6'1", 230 and workout regularly. I thought the heavy tension would be fine. For fewer reps it is, but for driving and at work, I bought the medium. It's also much harder to do fingers individually even if you can do the whole hand. I can feel the effect at least up through my elbow. Nice piece of equipment. I used to use the ones with handles and a metal spring, but after a few months, they all broke.
