Tired of those pathetic little stems dangling from your short sleeves? The following forearm exercisers will add inches of powerful muscle!
After having made several hand-held wrist rollers experimenting with various materials and designs, I have finally put together the ultimate wrist roller!
This puppy meets all of my stringent requirements:
This is the very best wrist roller you could possibly get! I know. I have always had an affinity for hand-held wrist rollers, as they provide a powerful forearm workout, allowing overhand and underhand wrist curls simultaneously, and you can take it with you when you travel. I have purchased six commercial wrist rollers over the years, and each one of them has had its flaws - either they would loose resistance while being used, or they couldn't provide enough resistance, or the mechanisms would fail, or they would snag and bind, or all of the above. A couple of them weren't even worth the cost of postage.
The Mega Wrist Roller has none of these flaws and I can confidently say that it is the best wrist roller you'll ever wrap your mitts around! Give this thing a 20 rep go, and your forearms will get pumped!
I just received the Mega Wrist Roller. Love it. Love it. Love it. It is the wrist roller addict’s ultimate crack. Sturdy, difficult and challenging. I did 2x20 with it and felt the pump throughout my upper body especially my arms. Look forward to other stuff you might make available. Keep up the great work!- Mike Nowicki
I love it. It's certainly a lot easier to use than my homemade PVC pipe wrist roller which I have to go out to the garage, tie on some weights, etc. etc. It doesn't take long to work those forearms and when you get close to the end of a set and you can't go on, just a slight turn makes it easier so you continue. It's an ingenious design. I might have to get the martial arts gripper thingy. It's great and I wish I would have bought one a long time ago.- Charles Long, Colorado
My first impression was that it was very impressive. Bubble wrapped for safety.Yet when I say impressive, I mean also the device itself. Mega is right, it looks like a piece of technology left over from a Japanese monster flick! This thing is THICK. The handles are perfect width for really testing the grip and they have a grippy hard rubber coating for sureness. A heavy duty clamp in the middle anchored by an equally heavy duty bolt and handle rounds it out. It gives you a great feel and I can see how using this thing will prove to be addictive. It is obvious this is built to last. There is even a sticker on the clamp identifying what it is, and Yin-yang/shaolin symbols on each end, giving it a "retail" look.
Turning the screw tightens the clamp, making turning the handles harder as you tighten progressively down. Very quickly you realize that soon you can't budge the handles at all if you turn it too tight. Adjusting it is quick and easy. I am impressed with the ingenuity.
Bruce recommends 4 sets and I added some variations. I have to honestly admit, this thing does truly give you a terrific muscle-building experience. My forearms were quickly on fire.
I can tell that this device is great for anyone who is playing a sport, or sitting at the desk getting carpal. I got back into grip training to increase my range in disc golf. I now view this as a can't live without device and this is just the first day i have had it. It is definitely cool to look at, and fun to use. It is more portable than your traditional weighted wrist roller, and more easily adjusted. There is no real comparison.
I give this product 2 definite thumbs up. It really is a high quality product. I love the thick handles. this is a winner.

Utilizing the same advanced mechanism as The Mega Wrist Roller above, this device will build tremendous tensile strength in your fingers as well as ripping your forearms to shreds in the process! Ideal for Martial Artists involved in the grappling arts! This exerciser will directly target those finger and forearm tendons and muscles that come into play when grappling. Great for building pinching strength! Take hold of the handles with your thumbs and finger tips and twist them back and forth in opposite directions. This thing is the ultimate in "Jar Twisting"! The handles are shaped to conform to the natural span of your hands and provide recesses for your thumbs. The Martial Arts Grip will hit the muscles of your forearms from angles not possible with any other forearm exerciser - a totally unique device! Even if you're not involved in the martial arts, the Martial Arts Grip ought to be included in any serious forearm arsenal!
The Martial Arts Grip is one serious piece of exercise equipment. It really can go from 0 to impossible quickly. The grip is built to last, and is very sturdy. I did several sets of twenty with it at a level which is challenging for me, and not only is there a serious burn in my forearms and arms but I also feel it in my ABS. Great work!!!!- Mike Nowicki
A little while back I received the Martial Arts Grip from Sierra Equipment. I already own the Mega Wrist Roller, and was so taken with the concept I decided to order the MAG as well.Once again I feel that this company has done an impressive job of putting together a grip-developing tool that will raise your eyebrows with its effectiveness!
Aesthetically, the Grip looks odd, yet strangely enticing. It has dual Yin/yang symbols on either side of the device and even the title of the product on it to give it that "commercial" feel. Yet when you place your fingers (and just your fingertips, mind you, for best results) into the placement holds it is a revelation. Grippy "jar-opener" rubber lines the edges for a firm feel. the thumb goes in the shaped wooden groove. Tighten the bolt with the easy turn knob and off you go for a remarkable forearm and grip burning session.
From easy to impossible it says on the site. This is no joke. For anyone looking to easily enhance their torquing/gripping /turning power, this is a perfect fit. It manages to fill a gap I didn't realize was there for my grip training. watch out for possible blisters on weak fingers trying to keep up!
Moreover, the quality of the device lies in its simplicity. This is a product for life. Sierra Equipment backs all their procucts up with a strong guarantee, but I doubt anyone will need it. It is solid, tough,and best of all, FUN.
Give it a shot. "Twisting" is once again in style!

Great Nipples of Isis! Those things are hard!- Doug from NC
I just received the Power Grip Tee's. Another great all around product. I marvel at the improvements, the cost effectiveness, and the versatility of all your products and the Tee's are no exception. You have the competition beat on these everyway and Wednesday too! They are all that and a bag of chips. I put them together and did ten reps. WOW! I can't wait to use them for tomorrow's workout. Plus I think they are very portable. I'm going to sneak mine into work one day and do a few reps when I work alone. GREAT PRODUCT.M.N., Michigan

Heavy, Medium, and light bands enable you to provide any combination of resistane desired. Latex surgical tubing has the unique property of being stretched and then snapping back to its original shape while having lost virtually none of its elasticity. Whatever elasticity that might be lost is infintisimal.
I'm still using the original bands I made 5 years ago!The type of resistance these bands provide is progressive in nature. The further the bands are stretched, the greater the resistance, which will provide a burn to your muscles not experienced with weights. This is the same type of resistance that is used in Nautilus machines. |
1. Speed - It's not the amount of time spent on workouts that matters, it's the quality of workouts that matters. The Hook enables you to set your resistance levels in a split second, allowing more time to focus exclusively on exercises.
2. Progressive Resistance - The Resistance Bands provide progressive resistance with each and every rep of each and every exercise, challenging muscles to the max!
3. Versatility - The Hook isn't merely a pair of handles connected by resistance bands as are other such exercisers, The Hook is unique - essentially a pair of dumbbells enabling Unlimited Resistance and providing a vast array of exercises not possible with other systems.

The door hooks work with the Exer-Genie, Apollo, Isorobic, as well as with "The Trainer." Placing one hook at the top and bottom of a door allows for a smoother transition between up and down movements. The straps & stoppers that come with the exercise devices take time to set-up, but with the hooks you can alternate the device's placement 'on the fly.' The epoxy potting compound that anchors the hook was much heartier than your web site's pictures indicate. I have only seen this much ruggedness in military equipment. The box-stitching on the webbing and tack-glue on the stitching's bitter ends protects it from the friction of a door-jam. The tightness of the web's stitching around the two anchor tubes prevents the hook from having excessive 'play.' Thanks for taking something that's been helpful to your exercise routine and making it available for such a nice price. It's fit right in since pulling out of the box & has been in use every day. The quality of this almost makes me feel guilty about paying such a low price for them.- John Riehle
Thank you Sierra!! I got my hook two weeks ago and I just love it! I have a set of TNT cables, but they are really just two handles connected by cables and changing the cables is a pain. I was looking to get a couple of more sets of TNTs just so I wouldn't have to go through the pain of changing cables everytime I want to do a different exercise. But then I found this site. The Hook completely wipes out the process of changing resistance. I love having the resistance bands just hanging from the door attachment and then just being able to grab what I need when I need it. The hook has enabled me to run the complete gambit of exercises to fatigue as fast as I want to move! And crafstmanship. Outstanding! These things are built to last! Great job, Sierra!!- Ralph Bromstein
They're great. I worked out with them the last two days and I really like the quick change capability of the hooks. It gives me the ability to run the rack so to speak when doing an exercise by easily removing successive bands as I fatigue. It blows lifeline etc. out of the water.- Mike Kier
Ive just received "The Hook" set with bands and door attatchment. This stuff is great! Changing bands is just so easy and the bands aint going to fall off as you exercise. If you want a workout where you can move very quickly from one exercise to another and change bands as you go then this is ideal. It takes no time at all to add or take off bands. When I first tried it out I did a few reps of just about every exercise I could think of and was constanly adding or taking off bands. Its so simple. I bet Bruce must have been very pleased with himself when he tried out his first set of these. I definitely recommend it.- BigBruvOfEngIandUK
I was on the internet looking at resistance bands i looked at lifeline, bodylastics but then i came across the hook what an amazing piece of home gym equipment its so easy to use & quick changeable resistance bands , i work out on the hook everyday doing different body parts , i get a real buzz after my workout, a truely amazing invention.- uzair (united kingdom)

Attention grip enthusiasts! The two inch diameter, genuine leather-wrapped handles on these Hooks add Grip Work to your Hook workouts! Inspired by Thomas Inch, renowned British strongman, these handles will have you working your forearms with every exercise you perform! It was Thomas Inch who put the fat into fat bars with his legendary 173 lb. dumbbell, and these handles enable the thick bar training for which this celebrated strongman was famous. |

Just drape the strap over the Hook Door Attachment, select your loops, and grab hold of the handles. Facing the door, lean back and brace your feet against the door frames at the floor. From there you can do Back Rows, Biceps curls, Wrist Curls, Shoulder Flyes.
Face away from the door and you can do Pushups, Pec Flyes, Triceps Pushdowns.
The two independent handles allows a great variety of isometric exercises to be performed - from Squats and Dead lifts to Curls and Shoulder Raises, and all the way up to Overhead Presses!
Moving from station to station is a snap! There are no buckles or latches to have to fiddle with. No guess work - each loop is numbered for quick reference. Simply slip the Hooks into any desired loops and you're set to go. This super quick change feature makes the all important 3-point isometrics protocol easily feasible!
Combining resistance bands with isometrics for the chest expansion exercise is an ideal use of the bands with the strap. In a chest expansion movement, stress on your shoulders decreases as your arms are spread out. Set your strap and bands up so that you hit an isometric with your outstretched arms. Give it a good solid push with each rep, and then push out hard on the last rep, holding it for seven seconds.
I'm finding the Isometric Strap to be quite effective, versatile, and enjoyable. One trick I've discovered is that for many exercises that have the strap passing under the feet, it's often quicker and easier to vary the width of the stance rather than changing loops. Even if you do change loops, varying the stance width helps to fine tune the position of effort. I've also found it easier to put more effort into bench presses when you lie down like a regular bench press. Speaking of bench presses, I've found the strap to be perfect for inclines and declines too. Well, I guess the possibilities are endless.Iso routines are fast enough that they can be done no matter how busy I am. And, with the Iso Strap, isos can be done so that they effectively get to muscles all over the body. Before the Iso Strap, I found doing isos was often awkward, to say the least. Even using various objects -- doorways, sticks, etc. -- it was difficult to really isolate and stress many target muscles. Now I can easily get a full-body workout with isos alone. And an added bonus for me is that isos are easy on the joints.

I received the bw/iso strap yesterday when I arrived home. It is easy to use and versatile. I do own the competition's belt and that thing is uncomfortable, hurts my hands, and a pain in the rump to use the buckle and get the right length. Yours by comparison is a dream to use.- M.N., Michigan
I just wanted to write and tell you how pleased I am with the Hook and Isometric Power Strap. These two pieces of equipment when combined offer an exercise system that is unsurpassed by anything else on the market today. The quality is exceptional and well designed. In the past, I've used chains, ropes, chairs, walls, ceilings, and any and everything to push or pull against. No more hunting, the belt provides an infinite number of angles so that you can quickly and easily target any muscle you want. It offers an endless number isometric holds. The numbered belt loops make adjustments fast, no guessing and experimenting to get the right length. There is no clanking of the chains or pinching of skin from the rope. You can throw it in a suitcase or bag when you hit the road or stores easily on a closet shelf. Your service was quick and I was notified by email from receipt of my order to when it was shipped. Thanks again for customizing it.- David Ledbetter, Peotone, IL
