Summary: A certified COC3 weighs in
Comment: This is an awesome product. Unless you have a superhuman grip strength, however, do not buy this first.
Well, scratch that. Get this, the #1 and the #2. Then get the #3 out of the package, and try and close it.
With diligent and intelligent training, you will one day get the #3 to close like a castanet.
And at that point, you will have INCREDIBLE hand strength. You will be able to do things with your hands you never thought you'd need to be able to do - cut metal with way substandard bolt cutters, use cheap wrenches that people in Home Depot assure you you'll never manage a job with, telling you you'll need much more expensive torque multiplying wrenches to use.
The #4 is my next goal. It's INHUMAN. Only four men on this planet have closed it, and there's some who think you might need genetic gift to reach that plateau.
But make no mistake, the #3 is a superhuman feat, and it's the benchmark by which strong hands are judged.

Summary: Fantastic stuff!
Comment: These are the grippers that got me into training my hands as hard as the rest of my body, and I can't thank Ironmind enough for making such a product. Don't waste your time with cruddy store-bought grippers that you can rep 100 times per hand straight out of the package - you're not getting any stronger with them, so why bother? Do yourself a favor, get a few Ironmind grippers and start your journey toward a fantastic crushing grip! My advice - unless you've been training hard and heavy for a few years, start with the Trainer, and even if you have been doing some hard training, start with the #1 and go from there. Anything more will almost certainly be more than you can close at the start, so begin with one, master it for a bit, and move on to the next. You won't be sorry!

Summary: The Ferrari of Hand Grips!!!
Comment: If you are really serious about hand grips, and you want something that is not your standard sport shop model, this is where to go. I got the Trainer, and for someone like myself that has been using hand grips since childhood, it was too easy. Then I got #1 and that was tuff; but I decided to get #2 and #3 as well. I have just recently graduated from #1 and using #2, and maybe in a year or more I can go to #3 and get certified.
Let me tell you this, if you can squeeze #2 at least once all the way, you are good. You can't really understand what I am trying to tell unless you get one. So if you are person that has never used hand grips regularly if at all, then go with the Trainer. If you have been using hand grips for awhile, and looking for something harder, then get the #1.
Remember to always squeeze hard!!!

Editorial Reviews:

Captains of Crush grippers are recognized around the world as the gold standard for building and testing hand strength--for over fifteen years, these are the grippers used by some of the biggest names in the strength world, as well as by everyone interested in building a better grip for their job or favorite hobby. Easy and fun to train with, these are the grown-up version of those cheap imports you might have enjoyed as a kid. Original, authentic and unmatched, the quality of Captains of Crush grippers is legendary. From their aircraft-grade aluminum handles to their tougher-than-nails springs, these grippers are both precise and durable. If you are ready for serious grip training, we recommend that you start with our Trainer and work your way up, enjoying the challenge at each stage. If you close our No. 3 or our No. 4 under official conditions, we will certify you, giving you the most recognized bragging rights in the world of hand strength. Proudly made in the USA, these are the grippers that everybody talks about. NO. 3: This is the benchmark gripper--the one that everyone in the world tries to close for Captains of Crush certification. First officially closed by Richard Sorin in 1991, next by John Brookfield in 1992, it's practically a plaything for World's Strongest Man winner Magnus Samuelsson but unimaginably tough for nearly everyone else in the world. Want to put an eagle's feather in your cap? This is how you earn it.
