YEAH!! DrHax gets it.
Makes it easier to do stuff you would be limited in otherwise. Also climbing becomes easier, as does just holding stuff in general, as an added bonus I can crush hands when shaking peoples hands, and if it ever came to it i guess i could dangle off the edge of a cliff for longer, however thats a different type of training more focused on endurance whereas this is for actually squeezing things.
BONUS if at some point I can close the captain of crush number 3 hand gripper, I get to be forever immortalized on their website as one of less than 200 people that can do so. At this rate though I don't see that happening soon.

. Research has now shown that grip strength has proven to be a reliable indicator for quality of life at an older age. For instance, in 1999 a study concluded the following:
“Among healthy 45- to 68-year-old men, hand grip strength was highly predictive of functional limitations and disability 25 years later. Good muscle strength in midlife may protect people from old age disability by providing a greater safety margin above the threshold of disability.”
