GD IRON GRIP 80 Light

Build quality and design is flawless. You can adjust the resistance and the width of the grips. This is a true buy it for life product, doubt I will ever break it. Only issue seems to be that the grip itself is quite painful to use, not sure if it's designed that way on purpose, but for now I have taped over. Doesn't change any resistance aspects, just the abrasiveness on the fingers.If you're looking for a grip trainer and you're happy with the 25 - 80KG parameters, I would 100% recommend this product. It's probably the most premium quality on the market.

I bought mine 3 years ago and went through a phase of doing 1000 reps a day. Hundreds of thousands of reps later it still feels brand new. The handles do chafe initially but your hands get used to it to the point where you don't feel it anymore.It's a real chunk of a thing and high in quality. I also bought its smaller brother with the plastic handles which I wouldn't recommend. Metal all the way. My grip strength has increased 20% so I highly recommend.

I’ve only had it a couple of days, so far though I’m impressed. It’s a beast. It’s heavier than most, sturdy & solid. Everything looks well made. But it all looks well designed & practical. It’s easy to change the resistance. Easy too, to close or open up the gap to suit different hand-spans. I looked at other reviews & saw others comment on the roughness of the handles. They are rough, great for grip but I could see they would mess up the skin. I applied a strip of Zinc oxide as a neat wrap around each of the handles & it’s perfect. Still grippy but without the rough edging.

The GD IRON GRIP Hand Grip Strengthener is, without a doubt, a seriously high-quality piece of equipment. From the moment you pick it up, it feels robust and well-engineered, a stark contrast to the flimsy plastic strengtheners you often see. Its excellent adjustability also sets it apart, making it a versatile tool for anyone serious about improving their grip.However, as many others have noted, there's one significant initial hurdle: the texturing on the grip absolutely kills your hands when you first start using it. It's incredibly coarse, and you'll definitely feel it. Some users opt to tape up the handles, and I can completely understand why. Personally, I found that if you ease yourself into it and don't overdo it in the beginning, your hands do adjust to the coarseness over time and build up resistance. It's a question of whether you're willing to endure that initial discomfort or prefer a smoother grip from the get-go.Compared to cheap plastic alternatives, the GD IRON GRIP feels fantastic. It doesn't cramp my hands, which was a common issue with lower-quality strengtheners. The three levels of adjustability for the handle gap are also a brilliant feature, allowing for a highly customized fit regardless of your hand size.I can genuinely see this being the only grip trainer you'd ever need. Instead of accumulating several non-adjustable grippers or constantly replacing flimsy plastic ones that break easily, the GD IRON GRIP offers a comprehensive, durable solution. While the texture can be quite painful initially, it certainly provides excellent grip – there's no slippage even when your hands get sweaty. That said, I still entirely understand why many people choose to use tape on it for comfort.

This is the good version of all the adjustable grip trainer that can be found on Amazon. I found the plastic on those starts to weaken and bend pretty fast - not on this. As with most other reviewers, I found the knurling pretty unpleasant and needed to give it some grip tape - this is too minor to take off a star

Great build quality feels tough and long-lasting. Super easy to switch weights, which makes workouts smooth and hassle-free, I would have to use a cloth just because the texture on the grip is a bit harsh but other than that this is perfect

If you want the best tool to excercise your hand grip than this is the universal tool to get. Fantastic quality, 6 very easily adjustable resistance levels, perfectly smooth operation (no squeeking, completely silent when in use), constant resistance from initial stroke to full (unlike traditional grippers which start easy/light at initial stroke), 3 adjustable stroke ranges, perfect knurling on handles, both handles close in-line (unlike traditional grippers which have offset handles). If you want Rolls Royce class of hand gripper I think it’s worth every penny. The Korean GD company created a reality perfect product. It’s a little on the expensive side but the quality of this product I think warrants it. I would highly recommend this to anyone who wants to improve hand grip. The quality of this product even makes you want to use it more than necessary. Thanks GD.

I have owned two of the other style of 'trigger' grip strengthener, they are all made of plastic with metal spring and on both occasions, they have exploded as the plastic fractures and breaks. On the second occasion, I was holding the strengthener towards the ground below my seat - one bitten, and all that. This version, on the other hand, is entirely made of metal and robust beyond words. It's heavy and I cannot imagine it letting me down. The only two small flaws it has; the handles are circular and metallic. As such, it's a little tricky to hold and you need to make sure you have 100% dry hands or it can be slippery to touch despite the textured surface. It would have been better to have a more ergonomic surface. Secondly, the load goes up in increments; 25kg, 36, 47, 58, 69 and 80kg. There is no in-between. Other than these two minor niggles, I would say if you are looking for such as a device to improve grip and strenthen forearms, this is the one.

EXcellent

Met dit apparaat doe je geen miskoop. Oer degelijk uitgevoerd en met genoeg weerstand voor de sterksten onder ons. Ik ben blij met dit apparaat en kan me niet voorstellen dat het geen jaren en jaren mee gaat.
