Not gonna lie, I was very skeptical of this product before buying one at a nice discount at the Arnold. Build quality is nice, and the range of tension is surprisingly large. I wouldn't recommend this as a main portion of your grip training, but I think it's a great option for warming up as well as getting a simply ludicrous forearm pump to cap off a grip workout, especially if doing isometric grip lifts that don't really promote a good pump on their own.

Let's be real, give already made up your mind if you're reading reviews of this product. You can tell your significant other that they provide a novel stimulus vs the standard versions by letting you overload the hand or wrist depending on how you orient it in your hand. I have both saxon offset handles because I too am this deep down the grip equipment rabbit hole.

The option to buy different sizes of handles so affordably is what makes the Arm Assassin napalm environment really hum. Best bang for your buck and the company is ran by a cool dude. Would recommend to a friend.

These end up actually spotting my drinks since my drink spotter is typically on tripod duty. Can't imagine not resting drinks on these while lifting weights in my basement.

Great option for hanging all the extra crap you're bound to accumulate over time, especially if you have a solid surface to screw them into.

Made by Otevoima and imported by Arm Assassin, the Pecco is one of the few dedicated thumb trainers available. It does what it does, and it does it well. Very niche market. If you're reading this review, you've likely already fallen deep down the rabbit hole. Just buy the thing. If you're outside the US, contact Kristoffer Lindqvist on IG to purchase.

Simply the best grippers available. Excellent knurling, excellent consistency, excellent folks running the company. I would recommend these over anything else.

Honestly a pretty lousy landmine if you value your equipment. Metal-on-metal contact with both the rack and barbell sleeve means you kinda want a beater bar. I added a bunch of duct tape to try to keep my rack and sleeves from getting torn up. Shoulda spent a few extra dollars in retrospect.
