Heavy Hands Twist on End Weights (Set of 4) Grips NOT Included

I've had Heavy Hands with a selection of different weights so wanted to complete the set. I ordered these because I couldn't find an option: no used ones on ebay, no closing gyms willing to sell some, etc. But they're plain steel (not even stainless steel), with very little machining. For four weights, perhaps $5 in raw metal bar, 15 minutes worth of machining, and then shipping. The total was ~$250. I did it anyway and I might add very reluctantly. The site even tells you they're going to rust and you have to paint them yourself to prevent it. At that price you'd think they could have been coated. Again, I knew the price, I knew what I was getting, and did it only to complete a set. Otherwise I'd never do it again.

The old weights with my first heavy hands did not last very long. The new ones are durable but you must paint them with Rustoleum to keep them from rusting through oxidation of the surface since they are stainless steel.

Good adjustable hand weight system for additional resistance when walking!

I was in a motorcycle accident in 1980. My injury is C4,5,6 quadriplegia. Though I'm very fortunate to have more sensation and upper body strength than many quad's I've met, my hands (fingers are paralyzed). I bought my amf heavy hands with 8lbs weights, the come with one pound at no extra charge.These weights were a life-changing tool that allowed me to strengthen many muscle groups. The handle, by design, uniquely keep my 8 lbs. weights in safe control through a variety of exercises as once slid over your knuckles. That's where they stay until you decide to remove them.Thank God for my Orthopedic surgeon in Cleveland at Case Western University, I was one of his early benefactors of Dr. H Bohlman's revolutionary cervical decompression/ anterior and posterior fusions; the practice of qualifying injuries to date.Dr. Bohlman instructed me to go do everything possible to strengthen my upper extremities...I did.Heavy Hands weights are the key to enabling me to exercise independently for the last thirty-eight years. Heavy hands weights offer a variety of weight sizes; from one pound to twenty-five lbs.. I use them, still, in my daily exercise. Quality materials, safe to handle and a game changer regardless who you are. Thank you, Heavy Hands!

Rip off. Waaaayyyy tooooo expensive. Do not buy. Ordinary small dumbells will work, too. It's not the equipment but the method that will do the job. You can also get Schwartz's book from a library or through an interlibrary loan.
