Hand Finger Exerciser
![]() |
Lack of use of the hands for tasks requiring force, whether we no longer do those activities by choice or because of injury, weakens both the forearm muscles and the small muscles in the hand. Usually both these groups of muscles will need strengthening to improve function. The small hand muscles will benefit from special equipment in addition to the forearm equipment used for the larger forearm muscles.
The specialized devices available to work the small hand muscles are too numerous to mention them all. Some are too difficult to adjust so they can be used progressively. For some, progress is measured by using them for an increasing length of time. For others, more repetitions and sets demonstrate progress. For another group of devices, progress is measured by moving to another identical device that has more resistance.
Much of the specialized equipment has the advantage of portability, being small enough to carry with you to allow you to use it several times a day. This is a big advantage for rehabilitation of the hand after injury or disuse. Some have versions that can be used by uninjured athletes who are trying to increase hand strength. Some of the more popular devices are the grippers, grip rings, Xtensor hand exerciser, and the Hand Helper.
Most of the devices are designed to increase strength in the flexors of the hand, and are difficult to use for the finger extensors. The Hand Helper and Power Web can be used to develop both flexors and extensors. They are helpful for hand rehab. The advantage of the Hand Helper is that the resistance can be varied from very minimal to fairly strong by changing the size and number of rubber bands used in the device. Once the limit is reached, the trainee will need to use other devices to further strengthen the hand.
Some of the more common devices to be used after restoration of the small muscles of the hands are thick bars and sledgehammer exercises. However, most of these devices develop the forearms more than the small hand muscles. To further develop the finger extensors is difficult, but to continue improving the small hand muscles that contribute to grip, there are quite a few. Grippers can be grasped in a way that will develop the small hand muscles. Sand bags can be used to develop these muscles, as well as Eagle loops, and the thick wrist roller grasped by the finger tips. This equipment can be used for forearm exercises or for small hand muscle exercises. The resistance can continue to be increased so that the exercises are difficult even for very strong trainees.
