Hand Strengtheners
Hand strengtheners are pieces of strength equipment that are used for toning and shaping the arms, as well as strengthening the muscles and fingers in the hand. They can be used in exercise routines, as well as for sport training or rehabilitation. To use a hand strengthener, all you have to do is hold the strengthener in your hand and squeeze. For those strengtheners that are used for the fingers, you will have to press down on spring loaded pistons instead. These motions are what tone and shape the arm muscles, as well as make the hands and fingers stronger. The appeal of hand strengtheners is that they are easy to use and don't require any special preparation. You can use them while doing a workout routine at home or at the gym, as well as use them while catching up on some late night TV.
Choosing a Hand Strengthener
When choosing a hand strengthener for your exercise workouts, here's what to look for:
* Make sure the springs on the strengthener are durable and long-lasting. Those made from chrome steel springs are often best and will last for plenty of years.
* Look for comfortable handles that give you a firm grip. Most strengtheners feature foam handles that are soft, yet allow for a firm hold while working out.
* Because hand strengtheners are convenient and can be used just about anywhere, look for those that are lightweight and portable. That way, you can toss them in a gym bag on your way out.
* Since you'll want to strengthen both your right and left arms and hands, make sure the strengthener you choose fits comfortably in both hands.

Types of Hand Strengtheners
You would be surprised how many different types of hand strengtheners there are on the market. Since some are designed for toning the arms, while others are used in strength training or rehab, hand strengtheners take on many forms. The most common hand strengthener used during workout routines is one that features two handles on a set of steel springs that you squeeze to create tension, known as a '''hand grip'''. These hand grips are adjustable and come in different resistance levels so you can choose one to fit your strength and workout routines. Another form of equipment are '''strengthening systems''' that feature spring-loaded finger pistons that isolate and strengthen each individual finger. These strengtheners are compact and can be used whenever you need them, so you can keep them in a pocket or purse. They are also referred to as '''hand and finger strengtheners'''. There are also '''putty hand strengtheners''', which are made from silicone rubber and promote strong and steady hands. You can also choose '''squeeze balls''' to strengthen the hands with that have comfortable designs in the shape of an egg to hold firmly in your hand.
