A certified COC3 weighs in April 26, 2007

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.
Fantastic stuff! August 2, 2005

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!
The Ferrari of Hand Grips!!! December 23, 2004

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!!!
