Re: Captains of Crush gripper challenge
I think I tried those years ago. They are nice for training an individual finger, but kind of awkward, and what is harder for one finger will be really easy for others. So, you'll need a whole host of them if you want to have something to match all your fingers.
And I'm not sure if you can even do that. Look at the poundages needed to close them -- not much. Consider that the Captains of Crush #1 that I got takes 140 lbs to close, and the highest one of those things at Amazon that you're talking about closes at 9 lbs. Even if you multiply by five for each finger(we'll throw the thumb in as a freebie), that still only comes to 45 lbs. Versus the Trainer at 100 lbs or the #1 at 140 lbs. So I dunno, seems kinda weak to me.
Also, the size of your hand has to match the gripper more than it does with a traditional gripper, which you can slide your hand up or down depending on how small your hand is.
