Using hand weights is an excellent way to build strength not only in the hand but over many areas of the body. Adding weight to workouts or even just walking increases the amount of energy the body must produce to move the body through space. This, in turn, builds strength and endurance. Using hand weights to strengthen the hand is a great way to develop task-specific and movement-specific strength. Building strength in the hand helps to improve coordination, dexterity, and grip.
Unlike dumbbells that provide an unforgiving hold, soft weights allow the weight to be molded under the user’s hand to provide a custom grip that is comfortable to the patient. The soft grip weights are ideal for users with arthritis or conditions that inhibit coordination or dexterity.
Sets are excellent for users that plan to advance through the progression of weights or who like to vary the amount of weight added to workouts. The sets are also great for clinics and exercise facilities due to the wide range of sizes and the ability to store the weights efficiently.
The grommet on the end provides a place for the weights to be stored and protects from accidental tearing. The hole can be used to hang the weights from most storage racks designed for cuff weights.
