ruffhans Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 im now learning alot about grippers, but im weak on knowledge about grip machines. is the IM hardy hand shake a good one to get? will it be worth the money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiotGrip Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 I'd wouldn't reccomend hardy handshake as a grip machine. if you check <a href="http://www.wwfitness.com" target="_blank"></a> they have some good grip machines that are reasonably priced, and better to use than the HHweightlifter's warehouse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybersnott Posted September 9, 2002 Share Posted September 9, 2002 O.K., you're interested in a grip machine!! That's great! I suggest you look around.... HOWEVER, since you are a "beginner", I say start with something simple. A simple plate-loading grip machine can be found at NYB. Here, try this link: http://www.newyorkbarbells.com/9165.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngun Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 I have one and it works ok. I recommend using that money to save up for a G-rex. It may be more expensive but I think you'll use it far more with far better results than the Hardy Handshake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Walker Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 If its $$ that you lack-many of these grip machines can be built to your own specifications with a little creativity and some one who knows how to weld/cut. As a matter of fact-I may have a few more of my own machines in the making. If I can save a few $100, then why the heck not! I own an Atlas that I was lucky to get for half its price from another baord member. I love it, and it is, in my opinion, far better then the HH. There are plenty of machines available-shop around. Or-just use the grippers Rick Walker :hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffhans Posted September 10, 2002 Author Share Posted September 10, 2002 well, i would like to get one. im not far from the #3, but, when its time to start training on the#4, i think a grip machine will be handy! all i want in a machine is one that most mimics the position of the grippers!
