Zenith Agility Gripper from IronMind: Strength and Conditioning

Excellent product. High quality and smooth to use. Great aide to the conventional CoC grippers.

I hoped that these Agility grippers would be a good substitute for my COC Guide grippers, but the resistance is just too light, to be of any value. I bought the Zenith Trainer because it's much more comfortable in the hand, than its COC equivalent. IronMind should remember that its customer base isn't just the body-building brigade.

I bought the Zenith Agility model (the weakest model) because I wanted a gripper that I could use to rehab after a golf wrist injury. At that time, even firm handshakes were hurting me so I definitely did not want to work with the more challenging Zenith models. I thought I'd try the Agility, hoping that it would be easy on the wrist but with just enough tension to provide some benefit. It was perfect. It is also a beautifully constructed gripper, with much attention to detail (even the coiled spring was treated with some type of rust inhibitor).I would emphasize that the Agility model is for someone whose hand grip is presently weak or whose hand might have a problem with pain. There are 6 levels of Zenith hand grippers (from weakest to strongest). With 6 levels, you would have to expect the first level to be pretty weak. It IS pretty weak! Depending on your situation, it might be the right one for you. If you are the "no pain, no gain" type, you might want to move on to other Zenith levels. If you buy the Agility, however, you can always get a good workout by doing more reps. It just takes a little more time to knock out the reps. This particular gripper is for a select audience; not for everybody. Hope this helps.

User-friendly; I use it following doctor's advice after I had trigger fingers.

Excellent grip with nice smooth grip that doesn't chafe your skin while using... however it does squeak when using it so keep that in mind.
