Gripmaster® Exercises

Flat Fist

What it does: focuses on the small muscles in the palm that bend the larger knuckles and straighten the small joints. These muscles help you to get a firmer grasp around a handle for increased stability, and are used for fine motor manipulation of the fingers.

Recommended for: golf, tennis, cricket grip / glove grasp, fishing, shooting.

How to do it: place the centre of the ergonomic bar on the thumb tip and line up a button to the base of each finger. Keep small finger joints straight while bending only the larger knuckles to press buttons. If you experience pain or fatigue – stop immediately.

As with any exercise, excessive or incorrect use can lead to pain or injury. Therefore progress slowly and increase reps and resistance very cautiously. Standard advice is to consult your GP before embarking on any fitness program.
