Hand Grips & Wrist Trainers

Of course! On decathlon.com.gr you will find a full collection of wrist strengtheners & hand grippers designed to strengthen your grip, fingers, wrists, and forearms. The collection includes fixed hand grippers with various resistance levels, adjustable exercise grips with a dial, as well as ergonomic rehabilitation aids.

To safely increase your grip strength, squeeze the handles until both sides touch and release slowly in a controlled manner without letting them snap back. Squeeze the gripper fully and hold tight for 5-10 seconds before releasing. Perform 3-4 sets of 10-15 repetitions for each hand, focusing on a gradual increase in resistance rather than excessive repetitions.

The choice depends on your goal and current strength:
Light resistance (10kg - 15kg): Suitable for beginners, rehabilitation, or warming up before heavy workouts.
Medium resistance (20kg - 25kg): Ideal for general hand strengthening and intermediate athletes.
Heavy resistance (35kg+): Suitable for advanced athletes, climbers, powerlifters, and cross-training enthusiasts.
If you want ultimate versatility, an adjustable hand gripper (8-40kg) is the best option as it allows you to adjust the weight resistance as you get stronger.

Yes, absolutely! During deadlifts, pull-ups, and rows, your back and legs can often handle more weight, but your fingers and grip fatigue first, forcing you to end the set early. By strengthening your finger flexor muscles and forearms with hand grips, you improve your crushing grip strength, allowing you to lift heavier weights for more repetitions.

Yes, low-resistance grippers (8kg - 11kg) are excellent tools for physical therapy and rehabilitation following sprains, tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or prolonged immobilization. They help restore finger mobility, activate forearm muscles, and improve blood circulation without overstraining the joints.

Forearm and grip muscles are used daily, so they recover relatively quickly. It is recommended to train your grip 2 to 3 times per week, preferably at the end of your main workout session, so you don't fatigue your grip prior to heavy barbell or dumbbell lifts.
