Gripper Strength
It's difficult to recommend gripper strength as personal abilities and response to hand strength training vary between individuals, but we've put the table together below as a guide.
| Hand Gripper Sizes | Gripper Guide |
|---|---|
| Heavy Grip 100 Hand Gripper |
Beginner The perfect gripper for people just starting out with grip training as well as for younger athletes, female athletes, athletes with small hands and as a warm-up for stronger trainers. |
| Heavy Grip 150 Hand Gripper |
Intermediate For people with a fairly strong grip, many can often squeeze out a few reps with the Heavy Grip 150 but it can be difficult for women and younger athletes, although it's often achievable with only a few weeks grip training. With consistent Heavy Grips training most people find that they're ready for the HG200 from 2-6 weeks because the hand responds so well to low-rep grip training. |
| Heavy Grip 200 Hand Gripper |
Advanced The HG200 offers a resistance level that even people with a naturally strong grip may have trouble closing. If you have prior grip training experience you probably won't have too much trouble closing the Heavy Grip 200, but anyone without previous grip training experience will find it very difficult to close the grippers at the beginning. When comfortably closing the HG200 for a few reps you will have developed very strong hand strength, which is highly beneficial to sports and strength activities. |
| Heavy Grip 250 Hand Gripper |
Professional If you can develop grip strength to the point of even closing the HG250 once, your hand strength is well beyond that of the average athlete. Usually only people with dedicated grip training, or those who perform heavy manual labour with their hands can close the Heavy Grips 250 on their first attempt. Even if you have trained with weights for many years please don't assume that you'll be able to close the HG250 as it's much tougher than it looks. |
| Heavy Grip 300 Hand Gripper |
The Gripper King There are very few people who can perform multiple reps with the Heavy Grip 300 but with dedicated training most males with an average sized hand can build up the necessary hand strength to close a HG300 for at least one rep with regular Heavy Grips training. They key to achieving this is a consistent training routine and avoiding over training with an adequate rest period (don't train when hands are still sore). |
| Heavy Grip 350 Hand Gripper |
The Grip Monster Developed at the request of those absolute monsters in this world - the Heavy Grips 350lbs Hand Gripper. A truly difficult hand gripper for those with world-class hand strength. |
Please note that different brands of hand grippers are not comparable in strength levels to the Heavy Grips. Heavy Grips test the "twisting force/torque" of the torsion springs and not lateral pressure.
Heavy Grips FAQ
Please see below for our collection of Heavy Grips frequently asked questions. If your question is not answered below feel free to email us - admin@fitstream.com.
Who should use the Heavy Grips?
The Heavy Grips hand grippers are a highly effective strength training tool for anyone looking to substantially increase wrist, hand and finger strength.
How do the Heavy Grips compare to other hand grippers on the market?
Hand grippers are not all made equal. The amount of resistance offered by the grippers can be measured in different ways - Heavy Grips measure strength as a conversion of "Torque Twist" so it may not be the same as other brands you're already using.
Heavy Grips are a premium hand gripper at an affordable price used for serious strength training. They are not comparable to common plastic hand grippers which can typically be used to perform 25+ reps in one set.
Which gripper should I start with?
Please see our Heavy Grips selection guide above.
How do you determine the strength of the Heavy Grips?
Heavy Grips strength is measured using a standardised testing procedure measuring "Torque Twist", however the strengths are an approximate figure, and classed as fitness equipment rather than a calibrated instrument.
The Heavy Grips are tested in the middle of the gripper and measured in Newton.metres (N.m) and converted to inch-force-pounds, shortened to lbs for marketing purposes.
How often should I train with my Heavy Grips?
We only recommend training with the Heavy Grips two to three times per week, squeezing the grippers less than 5 to 15 times for each set) as these grippers are designed for intense resistance work to challenge the hands and wrists.
You should not train again with the hand grippers until they have fully healed and any soreness has gone.
Why are the handles on the Heavy Grips so tough?
Plastic handles simply couldn't handle the torque from the larger springs used in the Heavy Grips and would be too slippery to use. Heavy Grips are made of cast aluminium machine-knurled handles, and the knurling is used so that you can maintain a solid grip.
How should I train with the Heavy Grips hand grippers?
To develop impressive hand strength you must train your hands similar to any other body part and use low repetitions (only 2-3 times per week, or when fully healed). Also remember to warm-up and stretch your hand before using the Heavy Grips.
Try to keep the reps in the 5-25 range and when you're able to do 15-25 reps with a particular gripper then it's time to move up a notch!
Even if you aren't able to fully close a gripper you can still train by doing partial reps or forced / negative repetitions until you have built up the required hand strength.
When you are able to close your hand grippers for 25 or more reps you can use them for warm-ups or super-sets, i.e. use the HG250 for 2 reps, then the HG200 for 8 reps, then the HG150 until failure.

Heavy Grips are a premium hand gripper at an affordable price used for serious strength training. They are not comparable to common plastic hand grippers which can typically be used to perform 25+ reps in one set.
Which gripper should I start with?
Please see our Heavy Grips selection guide above.
How do you determine the strength of the Heavy Grips?
Heavy Grips strength is measured using a standardised testing procedure measuring "Torque Twist", however the strengths are an approximate figure, and classed as fitness equipment rather than a calibrated instrument.
The Heavy Grips are tested in the middle of the gripper and measured in Newton.metres (N.m) and converted to inch-force-pounds, shortened to lbs for marketing purposes.
How often should I train with my Heavy Grips?
We only recommend training with the Heavy Grips two to three times per week, squeezing the grippers less than 5 to 15 times for each set) as these grippers are designed for intense resistance work to challenge the hands and wrists.
You should not train again with the hand grippers until they have fully healed and any soreness has gone.
Why are the handles on the Heavy Grips so tough?
Plastic handles simply couldn't handle the torque from the larger springs used in the Heavy Grips and would be too slippery to use. Heavy Grips are made of cast aluminium machine-knurled handles, and the knurling is used so that you can maintain a solid grip.
How should I train with the Heavy Grips hand grippers?
To develop impressive hand strength you must train your hands similar to any other body part and use low repetitions (only 2-3 times per week, or when fully healed). Also remember to warm-up and stretch your hand before using the Heavy Grips.
Try to keep the reps in the 5-25 range and when you're able to do 15-25 reps with a particular gripper then it's time to move up a notch!
Even if you aren't able to fully close a gripper you can still train by doing partial reps or forced / negative repetitions until you have built up the required hand strength.
When you are able to close your hand grippers for 25 or more reps you can use them for warm-ups or super-sets, i.e. use the HG250 for 2 reps, then the HG200 for 8 reps, then the HG150 until failure.

Sold as a pair, the Fat Gripz clip over your existing bars such as barbells, dumbbells, pull-up bars, cable attachments and more, and turns them into thick grip handles at more than twice their usual thickness.
Why use Fat Gripz?
Thick bar training using Fat Gripz immediately works on what is most people's weakest link - their grip. Training with a thick bar will help simultaneously work your grip harder during workouts, increasing muscle activation and building more strength and muscle mass.
Typically, buying a dedicated thick bar is extremely expensive and requires another piece of kit in the gym. The Fat Gripz give you the flexibility to upgrade your bar in seconds for a small fraction of the cost of buying a thick bar.
Fat Gripz Features
- Small, light and portable
- Fits almost all barbells, dumbbells and chin-up bars in seconds
- Made from high-density, military-grade compound which does not compress, slip or slide.
Fat Gripz Benefits
- Develops strength in hands and forearms
- Versatile use for thick bar strength training
- Converts any bar into thick bar at fraction of cost
- Increased muscle mass and strength through enhanced muscle activation
- Suitable for thousands of exercises such as bench press, biceps curls, deadlift, farmer's walk

- 2.25" (5.55 cm) thick when closed
- 5" (12.5 cm) in length

A quality foam roller is one of the cheapest, yet most effective training tools available to anyone involved with prolonged physical training, intensive workouts or with poor posture.
A foam roller is an essential piece of equipment for anyone involved in resistance training, Olympic weight training or taxing workout regimes like CrossFit. Foam rolling can be used to break down adhesions / scar tissue between muscles, promotes blood flow to the targeted area in preparation for training and will decrease workout recovery time.
To use, simply roll out and stretch your back, shoulders, chest arms or legs to leave yourself feeling perfectly prepared to take on your workout and minimise the chance of injury.
Product features: Large Fitstream Foam Roller
- Dimensions: Length 31" | Diameter 5.5"
- Full cylinder foam roller
- Non-slip surface
- Durable, hardwearing design to ensure foam roller maintains shape under extensive use
- Easy clean
Product benefits and uses: Large Foam Roller
The Fitstream Foam Roller can be used for:
- Self-massage and improves muscle aligment
- Stretching and warm-up exercises
- Balance and core stabilisation training
- Physiotherapy and yoga
- Muscular flexibility
- Improved posture
- Quicker recovery times
How to use a Foam Roller
You can use a foam roller to 'roll-out' and stretch almost all muscles of your body. The rolling motion and pressure of your bodyweight upon the foam surface stimulates blood flow and circulation to the muscle being targeted. This acts as a form of self-massage to break up tight areas and prepare the body for exercise.
The grappler is designed for rotational torso training and revolutionises core conditioning whilst working the entire upper-body like no other piece of fitness equipment can. Forget crunches, if you want a strong, defined core and thick, muscular shoulders the Fitstream Grappler is the answer.
This heavy duty grappler has a free-standing, weighted base to keep it stable during workouts and it fits nicely into the corner of a room or against a wall.
All you need is to insert an Olympic or standard barbell in the rotational sleeve and you're ready to go.
Features:
- Multi-directional swivel allows you to perform rotational exercises and presses
- Grappling handle included for two handed training and increased torque (handle fits Olympic bars only but based unit fits standard too)
- Heavy duty, black powder coated finish
Benefits:
- Builds core strength and stability
- Rotational strength
- Upper body mobility
- Shoulder stability
Grappler Exercises:
- Russian twists, one-arm dead lifts, one arm rows, shrugs, choppers and many more.
How does The Grappler work?
Slide one end of your barbell (Olympic and standard connectors) into the heavy duty baseplate and load the other end of the bar with weights. The bar is now sitting in a rotating arm which will allow you to pivot throughout 360 degrees of motion.
The bar arcs around it's pivot point, allowing you to swing, row, lift and push the weight around its central fixed point.
Grappling Handle
The Grappler comes with a dual grappling handle (pictured below) for increased difficulty and two handed training.

]]>The wheel has been designed for use with hands and feet and will dramatically improve core strength, power and balance. The Power Wheel also helps strengthen the chest, back, arms, core and legs and is adjustable to fit all athletes.
How to use the power wheel
The Power Wheel is a versatile piece of fitness equipment that is designed for abdominal and core training.
- Connect to feet to perform push-ups, pike-ups, inch worms, leg curls, and many more
- Hold with hands to do wheel rollouts from a standing or kneeling position
A common exercise for the Power Wheel is to attach the equipment to your feet and perform "walk outs" by getting into a push-up position and walking forward with the hands. This can be done forwards or backwards, for set distances and under time limits. This is an excellent exercise that helps to build the strongest abs and back possible.
How does the Power Wheel work?
Whether the Power Wheel is attached to your feet or your hands your body is challenged to stabilise itself as the wheel moves, engaging the entire core throughout the exercise.
