CanDo Twist-N' Bend Flexible Resistance Bars For Grip And Forearm Strengthening, Physical Therapy, Rehabilitation, Golf Training, Tennis Elbow, Injury Recovery, And Pain Relief Review

We are a family of 4 generations under the same roof.Last year my mom was very ill and they used the tan one of these for physical therapy. I finally decided to give them a try at home, now that we must stay in for long periods of time. We love it! my mom (93 yo) got the tan one (hopefully she'll go to the next one eventually!) my grand kids got the 2nd and third and they love them! I'm working my way up starting with the green! we are all getting stronger!

I like that this item can be used in several wrist and hand strengthening and exercises it does have great pushback support

Right out of the package the surface of the exerciser was sticky. When used the material stuck to my hands. The surface material sheds off onto my skin. I get to wash my hands after each use. I now get to buy a box of rubber gloves to use this or return it. Eww.

Good product - Black requires the most strength. Comes in different strengths, see the post I did for the Blue CanDo The product may not be suitable for children or minors.

Hopefully you can make-out in the picture I attached the imperfections in the Yellow Bar. Although the texture appears minor, I assure you it shreds my hands when twisting. I've only opened 3 of the 6 and so far 2 of them have this imperfection. Disappointing at $13+ each.

I have a fairly strong grip with familiarity with captain's of crush and similar devices. I bought this for working on guitar specific motions for string bending etc. Black is pretty difficult to bend in a U- pronation/supination or twist. I might have to get a blue for more reps and work into it as I can really only do short holds or a few reps with the black without ripping up my hands.

I learned about these is Physical Therapy. Easy to use beware blue is stiff so you'll need plenty of strength for the blue. You may want to try a different color below blue to start out. I own a black one which is much stiffer than the blue and requires alot more strength.There are several exercise you can do with them. Twist in vertical positions, Twist in horizontal postiiton, and bend in horizontal. I can definetly tell a difference.

Recommended by my PT for grip strength. Rubbery material kind of rubs off on to your hands, according to my PT this should stop after a while. And I think the red was listed as beginner/flexible, I'm glad I didn't go to green - this wears out my hands quite quickly!

They are rubber bars, ordered a light and medium(red, green) I cant feel any resistance difference themaside from being different colors they feel the same, ordered a thera bar red and that I can feel and see the difference also smaller diameter. I get feeling there is no difference aside from the color

This is the lightest and still too strong for my grandmother. It seems nearly as strong as the medium one she got from her therapist.

I used this item to recover from an elbow issue I acquired from mountain biking. I really found it challenging enough to get a good workout out of it. I used it to strengthen my muscles adjacent to the elbow and I could tell a difference in regaining strength. I had used muscle during the rest part of my recovery.

I have carpel tunnel and have been looking for a way to relief pain as well as strengthen my wrists. From my research I found these twist sticks were the best, simplest and cheapest way to do that. I'm very happy with my progress and feel my wrists have improved in the last week of use. There are more gimmicky contraptions that strengthen the wrists but they usually strengthen the pull (towards your body) of your wrist. This stick can strengthen every single movement of your wrist.There was a…

Pretty close in resistance to the green flexbar, for less than half the price. HOpefully will help my tendinitus The product may not be compatible with certain types of gloves or protective gear.

Using this as part of my therapy after my spinal cord injury. I use the red one and the yellow one. They're wonderful and versatile and really make me work my wrists.

I broke my elbow. I have a FIVE STAR ⭐️ Occuptional Therapist who recommended the bar. I've only used it for 3 DAYS, but the improvement in my range of motion and strength is SUBSTANTAL! I highly recommend its use if your arm has been in a cast.

The flashing makes this an uncomfortable hold. (Flashing is the extra rubber sticking out at the seams indicative of either poor mold tolerances or molds that have been kept in service too long to save money.) I have another brand’s red flexbar and it’s superior in every way. Not only does it not have annoying flashing, it’s slightly less girthy and therefore easier to manipulate despite being ‘medium’ vs this ‘light’.This product isn’t horrible but it’s not as good as the more expensive…

I had some mild tennis elbow issues for more then two years and after using twist exerciser for tree month the pain has gone. No ouch moments when handling 1 gallon water jugs any more.That's said I was also doing (and will) hand stretches every day, taken Manganese supplements, extra Collagen and switched to gymnastic rings from pull up bar.If you have anything but mild issues I recommend getting the medium torque bar (green), start slowly and give yourself every other day off to recover…

It did its job! Although the blue was a little firmer than I would have liked, doing the exercise with this cured my tennis elbow in less than 1 month.
