Expand-Your-Hand Bands 10 Pack: Kiss Elbow Pains Goodbye - Prevent, Rehab, Reduce Pain from Tennis Elbow, Carpal Tunnel. Authentic, original, effective

These are the best bands for extensor workouts. I've bought this pack three times in 9 years. They wear out and break after a couple years of use like any other band. Regular use they will last a couple years per pack. Not perfect, I wish they would be a little more robust and wish they made an even heavier duty one.

I use these to keep my hands/fingers limber before and after tasks requiring gripping a tool for a long period of time. I work in construction, do a lot of writing, draw and carve. Before getting and using these, I would find it difficult to unclench my hands after longer or more strenuous sessions of any of those. Sometimes it would feel like my knuckles had detents while unclenching for a few minutes. Started using these and within a pretty short time that stopped happening. If I'm swinging a sledgehammer all day, I'll use the green or even white bands while on break to keep my hands fresh, then do it again for a few minutes at the end of the day. Forearm strain was also reduced. You could do similar with rubber bands, but they would be less consistent, less comfortable, maybe less durable, and more likely to end up getting used for their intended purpose. Just ordered my second set.

I’m glad I bought these. I have several Heavy Grips grip strentheners, so having a way to exercise my extensor muscles in my hands too is great. The package gives you 2 each of 5 different wait bands. The price is very good too. Update 18Sep18: I've only had these a few days, but I really like these. I can feel a big difference in my hands already. I think activating the muscles in my hands, wrists and forearms, in a contrasting manner helps balance the grip training. Update 6Feb2020: Since my initial purchase I have purchased more of these bands. They're only rubber bands, so they're easy to lose or misplace. I have also purchased other similar products. IMO these are the best and simplest way to work hand extensor muscles. As long as I keep losing these bands, I'll keep buying them.

I like these bands. I use these along with the Captains of Crush Hand Gripper - No. 1 and the Gripmaster Exercise Tool, Light , to give my fingers and hands a good workout. The workout is pretty straight forward. You put the bands around your fingers, place them just under the fingernails and try as many times as you can to expand your fingers outward. It's a good workout, too. I do the reps until I feel the "burn" in my fingers. I do two sets each hand about twice a week. Now I feel more dexterity with my fingers after using these bands. I'm using the blue bands now (see photos posted). The other bands (except the red ones) are really too weak to give my fingers any real type of workout. I am not a doctor or hand specialist, but I do feel using these are a good workout. If you are a weight lifter, practicing martial artist, or especially a musician learning/playing a stringed instrument(s), etc., working with these bands will definitely be beneficial to you. I am happy with them so far. Now while these bands, I feel, do give your fingers a good workout. These are still basically rubber bands. IronMind states these bands are specially treated. Good. I do follow the advice of IronMind in "keeping these bands in a drawer, out of light, and definitely out of direct sunlight -- and also away from heat (so not in the glove box in your car during the summer, etc.)". But I still have the question in my mind: How long will these bands last? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update: Monday June 14, 2010 "But I still have the question in my mind: How long will these bands last?" The bands should last about a year and a half (give or take a few months). I was using the blue bands (the next strongest after the red bands) about twice a week, keeping them in a drawer when not in use. Then one day while I was using them, I noticed a small hole developed in one of the bands. I did another stretch and then - Pop! No more band. I recommend that if you're going to use these bands, use just one (you get 10 bands, five different colors, one set of each color) at a time for both hands. You'll get longer use out of them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update: Sunday May 19, 2013 "But I still have the question in my mind: How long will these bands last?" I am currently using one of the large red bands. That's been well over two years now. And they're still going strong! Both blue bands I had used earlier didn't last that long. I'm surprised it (red band) lasted beyond two years of consistent use. So I still recommend using just one band at time, and when you're not using them to put them away in a drawer or closet. Store it somewhere away from bright light and heat. I can't say exactly how long they'll last, but each band should last a few years at least. I would also recommend these bands to: Data Entry Clerks, Word Processors, Stenographers and Keyboardists or maybe to anyone with early signs of arthritis. In my opinion, along with the Captains of Crush Hand Grippers, they seem to lessen the pain/discomfort significantly.

I have been using these while using the captain of crush hand gripper. My raw dead lift has gone from 365 to 505 in the past 4 months. Now I can dead lift 605 with straps, but I am getting away from straps and these are a huge help. I keep them in my truck and use them for a few minutes each day. My tip is get into a routine, do 10 with each and, then switch to a gripper and do 10 for each hand. I then go up a band and do the same. On the fourth set I do holds, I try for 10 seconds for a few of 5. Also once I am exhausted on a larger band, I drop to the white or green and burn out. If you are looking to build a great grip I recommend getting these, the captain of crush gripper (size T,1, and 2), and a set of fat grips. Use the gripper and bands 5 days a week, and work the fat grips into several of you pulling exercises (shrugs, curls, rows, later pull down, pull ups, ect.) Work them all together and you will see huge gains and no longer need to rely on straps.

Great workout for the top part of your forearm and hand mobility. I checked when I had bought a set and it was way back in 2020! And I’m just now needing to replace them. Great value, great exercise tool. Yes I would buy again and that’s what I’m doing right now.

These bands are absolutely amazing if you are using the CoC crushers, or something similar. I overworked my hands on my CoC, to the point my hands were hurting all the time. After I received these bands I played with them for about 30 minutes, and by the end of that time my hands were not hurting anymore. They are nowhere close to as strong as the CoC obviously, but they provide enough resistance to keep your hands more or less balanced. Highly, highly recommend you get these if you intend to use the Captains of Crush. Just to clarify, since I didn't really see this on the product description, there are 5 levels of bands, and 2 of each level, so you are getting a total of 10 bands.

3.5-4/5 I’ve been using these 4-5 days per week for a few minutes daily to rehab some tennis elbow. I mostly used green and sometimes white. Sadly one of the green ones snapped already, which is disappointing given I’ve only used for a few months. I do love the design better than similar bands that have holes specifically for each finger, those slide up my fingers and get easier with each rep, with these bands, they stay at the tips of my fingers.

手軽に手を開く方の筋トレが出来ます。色によって強度が違います。白、緑、黄、青、赤の順で強度が強くなります。それぞれ２つずつ入っています。 グリッパーなどで手を閉じる方の筋トレをしている方は、このようなものを使い、手を開く方のトレーニングもした方が、怪我防止になるのと、筋トレの効果が高くなると、２つのメリットがあるそうです。 私はアラフォー男性ですが、緑色のバンドと黄色のバンドを使っています。黄色で追い込んだ後、少し強度を落とした緑色で更に追い込む感じです。前腕に効いてる感じで、やってると張ってきます。あんまり強度が高いのでやると関節や筋を痛めそうなので注意は必要と思います。

Great

Really helps the extensors. Great quality, durable. Iron Mind are the leaders when it comes to grip strength development
