I ordered a pair of Grip4orce grips a few weeks ago and I have been using them regularly. After reading about them and what they are designed to do, I felt they would be very beneficial to me and my workouts. They are made to help strengthen the grip. Most people do not realize the importance of a strong grip when they're training. A weak grip leads to a weak lift.
These grips force your forearms and grip to actually work harder. The grips are made with a slit down the middle so you can clip them on any barbell or dumbbell or any machine you may use. The slit also forces you to grab firmly and hold it shut so the barbell/dumbbell you're using doesn't slide out. There are other forms of this grip but they clip on and you don't have to hold them tightly like you do with Grip4orce grips. To me, that takes away from the purpose of the grips. Why have a grip device if it doesn't force you to GRIP the grip?
So, I tried them out for a while and was really surprised at how they worked. They really made my forearms do their job. My forearms were on fire! Now, as with any product there is always a pro and a con. Here are my thoughts on these grips.
*Very tough and durable.
*Fit perfectly in my hand and on the bar.
*No slippage or sliding out of my hands or the bar.
*Made to last a very long time so my investment is totally worth it.
*Forearms were sore for a while from having to "work".
*The amount of weight I normally use was cut way back, almost in half.
*Increased my wrist stability.
*Cut ALL the pain out of my arms doing bicep curls (bicep injury a few years back is aggravated by curls but not when i use the grips)
Here are a few videos of me using the Grip4orce grips.

I am very pleased with these grips. They do a phenomenal job and really work your grip. A strong grip leads to a strong lift and that leads to bigger and stronger muscles. I want to thank the guys over at Grip4orce for making such a quality product. They have 2 different grips, the regular flex grip which I have and the Stiff Flex grip. They also come in a variety of colors to choose from! Yes ladies, even pink!
Here's to a new you!
