I had a motorcycle accident back in the day and ever since then I've had trouble with the strength in my hand, I've used those grip type of strengtheners which would cramp up my hand. These, particularly the light grey one is perfect. I love the feeling of the soft surface and flexibility. I am very, very pleased with this product and I can definitely recommend because it can easily be shared with your household since all three trainers are different resistance and you can work up to the highest level in time.
