Sanford, NC — Nov. 16, 2015 — Eric Currey, spokesperson for Supreme Squeeze, noted that anyone contemplating learning to play the guitar can make their journey much easier by preparing their muscles with hand grippers. The devices are equally applicable for professional guitarists and musicians playing instruments that require a lot of finger, hand and wrist movements.

“It takes strength, dexterity and coordination to play guitar and hand grippers facilitate those needs by strengthening all the muscle groups that come into play,” said Currey.

It doesn’t matter what genre the guitar player favors, adding a daily routine of hand gripper exercises build strength and stamina in all the relevant muscle groups used when playing. The devices benefit musicians in multiple ways, from developing dexterity to helping to reduce the risk of painful conditions that can derail learning and practicing, including tendonitis.

Hand grippers strengthen the hands, fingers, wrists and forearms, all of which are involved in guitar playing. As the muscle groups become stronger, it’s easier to perform tasks of increasing difficulty and complexity and practice longer. Many beginning musicians make the mistake of using hand grippers only on their dominant hand. People don’t play the guitar one-handed and neither hand should be neglected.

Musicians that utilize hand grippers for strength training are also helping to protect themselves against repetitive motion dysfunction, while decreasing the risk of injury. Those new to the guitar often spend hours running scales, an activity that can quickly result in inflammation and injury. They’re also useful for relieving the frustration and stress that people may experience when learning a new skill.

Hand fatigue is one of the most common problems encountered by guitarists and it can occur for any number of reasons ranging from improper thumb positioning and wearing the guitar too low on the body to the choice of guitar. String types and thickness vary depending upon the type of guitar and has a definite impact on how playing affects the hands. Hand grippers can help individuals develop strength that will be reflected in faster results.

Supreme Squeeze hand grippers can be used by men or women and are sold in sets of two with bonus exercise and training tips. The devices feature 66 lbs. of resistance for muscle strengthening and conditioning for improved grip, dexterity and endurance. They’re an effective means of building coordination for beginning guitarists and musicians at any level of expertise.
