## Description

Want stronger hands? If you could choose only one grip training tool, this is it: Captains of Crush are the gold standard of grippers--the premier hand strengthener--and they are designed to deliver the biggest gains in the shortest time. This is the gripper that changed the world as IronMind took what had largely been a plastic plaything and transformed it into a serious grip training tool that is gorgeous, precise, and durable; and with eleven models to choose from, Captains of Crush (CoC) grippers are suitable for people of all strength levels. The legendary design and build quality of CoC grippers is backed by superb customer service from IronMind, the industry leader since 1988. Born, raised and made in the USA.

Review: Excellent Gripper. - Bought the CoC Sport hand gripper, as a high repetition / warm up tool. Excellent quality, with enough tension to challenge most people not used to grip / weight training. The great thing about the CoC range, is that you can progress quickly, once you have improved your grip strength on a particular gripper, there is always the next gripper in the range, should you wish to progress. Not cheap, but whether you just want to improve your hand grip strength a little, or you wish to build massive grip strength, for powerlifting or strongman, I highly recommend the Captain's of Crush hand gripper range.
Review: Works like a charm and I use mine every single day. Love it! - There is not much to say about this product except that it is done right, machined and built very well and works like a charm. I will more than likely purchase a model with more resistance down the road, and it will surely be from the same company and from the same product line too, there really are no issues to improve upon in my opinion.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If i can deadlift about 160kg 1 rep without straps, which coc should i buy to start off with?**
A: Umm not sure I've never really deadlift. If you have a good grip I would say the Trainer or #1 see how that goes 
 Hope it helps.

**Q: Do these help build forearm mass?**
A: Yes. Depending on how many reps you do. 5 or less for strength. Up to 10 for muscle mass. I  would also recommend doing static holds in the closed position for crushing grip strength.

**Q: My hands are fairly small so will I struggle to grip this in my hand to exercise properly?**
A: It depends how small your hands are. My are 7 inch from wrist to middle finger. I struggle sometimes Just keep practice you should be okay.

**Q: I use a computer a lot and my mouse hand gets a bit stiff, where I feel I need to "stretch" my fingers out more. Would one of these be suitable?**
A: Yes. It will help but start off with the Guide or sport, and work your way up. If not you could get injured like I did and it takes months to heal.
