thehammer Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 My hand is around 8.5 inches long. When I use fatgripz, I like them, but I think I would prefer it if they were thicker. (I believe they are about 2.35" diameter). I don't have a wrist roller. I can get either a 2.5" or 3" diameter one. Without having used one, I think I would like the 3 better. Is this too big to be practical. Are my eyes bigger than my hands so to speak? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macaz Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 My understanding is that the fatter the diameter the more griping strength is used. So if you really want to exercise your fingers more then go 3". If you want your forearms more then go 2-2.5". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Brouse Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Go with 2" PVC. That's the inner diameter anyhow so it will be a touch thicker than that. My hands are only slightly larger than yours and its a good fit for some crushing strength as well as great forearm work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
