Expand Your Hands - Sormi Expanderit

True to our tradition as the hand strength specialists for over 15 years, IronMind introduced our Expand-Your-Hand Bands in 2004 for two primary purposes: 1) training the extensors for muscle balance as a way to facilitate gains in crushing strength, for example, and 2) as a rehabilitation tool for people with arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or elbow pain. IronMind was blazing a new trail in both areas, so heres a little bit on our thinking.

In terms of the people who are looking for maximum hand strength--and these are our guys--we wanted to give them the same advantages that all serious strength athletes gain by training for muscle balance: fewer injuries and greater strength. And for the people who are seeking a way to reduce or eliminate the pains plaguing them anywhere from the elbow to the fingertips, we wanted to offer something that could be used at a gentle, therapeutic level and that would complement what they might well have been doing way too much of: squeezing. Cheerfully colorful, so youll be eager to put these on and let your fingers dance, get a set for home and another for your car or your desk. The more you use them, the better youll probably feel.

Our sturdy rubber Expand-Your-Hand Bands are wide enough for comfort, thick enough for lasting power, and graduated in strength to give you a range of workout possibilities, starting with the easiest white band and working up through the green, yellow, and blue bands to the tough red. The color-coding makes it easy to grab the right one: lighter resistance for therapy-rehabilitation and flexibility work, and heavier resistance for building strength.
