Talking digital hand-grip exerciser keeps track of squeezes
We're still not entirely sold on exercise gear that yaps back at you, but if you'd rather your machinery do the counting, the Talking Digital Hand-Grip Exerciser is right down your alley. The title pretty much tells all, but this hand exerciser boasts an integrated LCD and a built-in drone (or its vocal box, at least) that proudly announces how many squeezes you've completed and the current, total, or maximum grip force. Throw down $12.99 for this and couple it with your Konami push-up counter for a workout that's sure to be unbelievably invigorating.[Via UberReview]

Hand exercises? Why waste money when you can do it for free?

Do we really live in a world were "counting" has become so difficult?
If this thing sells I would have to say yes.

We used to sell this very thing up at the Source by Circuit City in Canada. Last time I worked there was over a year ago now and we probably had it a year before that.

It should be really useful for people like me who need to strenghten fingers to "do various stuff" better (and I'm telling about playing the flute ;) )

As someone who had bi-lateral Carpal tunnel release surgery in July and still working on fully recovering and regaining strength in my grip; this is actually a great looking product. Much better than the large metal spring grip tool used in rehab. Now I just want to know where I can buy one.

That would actually be good thing to have to strengthen my hands.
Dentistry wears causes fatigue. This would be a good way to increase hand strength endurance. http://www.AtlantaDentalSpa.com
