Amazon.com Product Description
The Gripmaster Pro isolates and strengthens each finger individually, helping you improve your overall strength, endurance, and dexterity. A few daily workouts with the Gripmaster Pro and you'll enjoy better control of a baseball/softball bat, tennis racquet, or golf club, with each finger working in seamless unity with the others. You'll also find a ton of other uses for the Gripmaster Pro, including playing guitar or violin, rock climbing, bowling, target shooting, martial arts, yoga, or even relieving stress while clicking a mouse or gaming for hours on end. To keep things interesting and to accommodate certain uses, the company recommends several different exercises, including the "fingertip pinch," "flatfist," "powergrip," "wristflex," and "thumbpinch," most of which are explained on the Gripmaster website. Best of all, you can work out anytime and anywhere with the Gripmaster Pro, which fits neatly in your pocket when not in use. This particular version of the Gripmaster Pro offers an extra-heavy tension of 11 pounds per finger--a recommended tension for extremely strong hands.

 Selecting the right tension December 25, 2009

From all the previous reviews, I knew these hand exercisers would be good solid devices - and they are. My only concern was what tension level to pick. Just as a data point for others, I'm a 71 inches tall, 180 pounds, fit male. I lift weights regularly, but am by no means a bodybuilder or powerlifter. I purchased the medium strength units, wondering if 7 lbs per finger was too much or too little. I've found that if I power grip them (basically just grab them like a barbell, squeeze and release), I can easily do 100 or more repetitions. This leads me to think that the Mediums are too light if I only want to power grip. Same is probably true for many of you.
However, two things changed my mind about this. First I went to the Prohands website and found that several of the exercises they demonstrate (e.g. fingertipping) are much harder than the simple power grip. Also, by holding the grip for 3-5 seconds as recommended, even the power grip becomes more challenging. In the end, I've decided that the 7 lb units give me a very good workout.
My suggestion is if you only want to power grip, then you may want something heavier - obviously dependent on your hand strength. But if you value doing exercises that fully articulate your fingers in various ways, then you might want to try the Mediums.
Please be kind enough to indicate if reviews are helpful.
Very Happy With GripMaster Products February 21, 2008

I was given the Medium Tension (7 lbs) Gripmaster as a hand-me-down gift almost a decade ago. It looked brand new when I got it, and it looks brand new today.
I eventually upgraded to the Heavy Tension (9 lbs) version, which was the strongest version you could buy for a long time.
Amazon remembered my Gripmaster purchase and decided to alert me to the new Gripmaster Pro products.
I could not have been happier to hear about it and I ordered it right away!
The construction is much beefier than the standard Gripmaster. And if the standard model lasts for 10+ years, I can't even imagine how long this one will last!
You have to have a larger hand in order to hold it comfortably and The curved part is not removable like the old Gripmaster, which I kinda miss.
I am very happy with the product and will continue to buy stronger version as they become available.
Much Better than the 'Regular' non-pro version March 14, 2009

I've been using Gripmasters for many years now and my only complaint was that rubber piece that sits against the palm kept twisting off the grip. So when I lost my Gripmaster and decided to replace it I was thrilled that I found the Pro unit. It resolves my only complaint about the Grimaster by removing rubber piece and molding a new palm rest directly into the unit.
Gripmaster is worth every penney July 14, 2008

I have three grip masters; Medium, Heavy, and PRO Extra Heavy Tension - 11 lbs. I purchased them to use to strengthen my left index finger to play 6 string barr cords on the guitar. After only a few weeks, I'm able to play up and down the fret board making all strings sound clear.
I use them on each finger of both the left and right hand. I haven't played golf since I started using them, but I think it will help with getting some extra distance too.
Worth every penny!!! January 21, 2008

I first tried out the item before I purchased for a friend of mine. I like how it feels when you use it, like it is molded to your hand. Plus, it does work on strengthening each individual finger. You can also get creative with it and do different exercises. Right now, I'm using my fingertips. I also bought this for my friend because she is going into the police academy, and this is the best item recommended for developing your shooting hand. I'd highly recommend this product.
