For those who are new and want to build grip strength, the little do-nut below is one of the options out there.

I claw it, two finger squeeze with one finger supporting over the top of the other, side finger pinch, and what ever else comes to mind.

I do some squeeze and release, squeeze and release, but mostly I squeeze hard and hold; just like what is done while climbing. My philosophy is to condition the muscles for how they are going to be used.

It's good to use during commutes. Just pretend the do-nut is the heads of all those bad drivers giving you road rage!

I like it but you have to have clean dry hands and as you use it it warms and gets softer.

Gripmaster is probably the very best finger and digit trainer I have seen in my 34 years as a climber. It's light, durable and it works each digit as necessary. You can get it in 2 different levels (maybe more now days) of strengths.
