REVOLUTION 2.0 FAQS

Grip and forearm strength is important because it serves as a key indicator of overall muscular strength and function and stronger grip and forearm strength has been associated with improved longevity. Here are some reasons why it’s significant:

1. Functional Movement: Many daily tasks, such as lifting, carrying, and opening objects such as jars, require a strong grip. 
2. Athletic Performance: Sports and activities like rock climbing, weightlifting, and martial arts rely heavily on grip and forearm strength for performance. It can also enhance stability and control during complex movements.
3. Health Indicator: Studies show a correlation between grip strength and overall health. Reduced grip strength can be associated to conditions like cardiovascular disease, reduced mobility, and even mortality, especially in older adults.
4. Injury Prevention: Strong grip and forearm strength helps stabilize the wrist and forearm, reducing the risk of injury in the upper body. It also aids in preventing falls and other accidents.
5. Rehabilitation: For those recovering from injury or surgery (especially in the hand, wrist, or arm), grip and forearm strength is often a key focus in physical therapy, helping restore function and mobility.

SportGrips has been crafting grip strength tools for over a decade, and we’re excited to continue that legacy after taking over from the original owner, Chris. We’ve kept the spirit of the Revolution product alive but added a few exciting updates. The new 2.0 version features a knurling design for better handling and improved internal construction to enhance the variable resistance profile, giving you an even better experience. Curious to know more about our journey? Check out our story on the About Us page!

 The Revolution 2.0 provides resistance in both directions, allowing for a full range of motion that targets and strengthens both sides of your forearms simultaneously. The adjustable resistance feature helps users progress from beginner to advanced levels and as the handles move independently, you can focus on one or both wrists and forearms.

The Revolution 2.0 stands out from other grip and forearm strengthening products due to its unmatched quality, durability, and versatility. Here’s how it differs:

1. Quality Materials: Unlike many products on the market that wear out quickly or lose resistance, the Revolution 2.0 is made from premium aluminum materials that ensure long-lasting use, making it a solid investment for anyone serious about improving their grip and forearm strength.
2. Durability: While other products might break or become ineffective over time, the Revolution 2.0 is built to withstand even the toughest workouts. Its rugged design ensures that you’ll never have to replace it, saving you from having to buy multiple products over the years that’s typical of other products on the market.
3. Effectiveness: The Revolution 2.0 is specifically engineered to target both grip and forearm muscles more efficiently than generic devices. Its unique design allows for more precise, progressive variable resistance, making it suitable for anyone from beginners to elite athletes. This level of targeted muscle engagement isn’t matched by basic handgrips or simple forearm rollers.
4. One-Time Purchase: Unlike other tools that may wear down or require upgrading as your strength improves, the Revolution 2.0 is a one-time investment that grows with you, ensuring you’ll never need another forearm and grip-strengthening product again.

The Revolution 2.0 is suitable for anyone and everyone who wants to improve their health, regardless of age, fitness level, or background. Whether you’re an athlete looking to enhance your grip and forearm strength, a busy professional seeking an efficient way to stay active, or someone simply aiming to maintain functional strength in daily life, the Revolution 2.0 is for you. It’s designed to help improve not only your grip but also your overall strength and wellness, making it a versatile tool that addresses the needs of all audiences—be it fitness enthusiasts, beginners, or those focusing on rehabilitation. Everyone can benefit from incorporating the Revolution 2.0 into their health and fitness journey!

The Revolution 2.0 is made with high-quality anodized aluminum metal construction, ensuring longevity and durability. Many of our clients have noted that it is built to last a lifetime, even with frequent use (especially if you reset the knob after each use!). In fact, we offer a lifetime warranty for our products because they’re built to last! Just remember to turn back the variable resistance knob to the lowest resistance setting after each use to maximize the lifespan of the product.

Yes, the resistance is infinitely adjustable, allowing users to customize their workout to match their strength level. You can start light and gradually increase resistance as your strength improves. To see how you can adjust the resistance levels, check out our How-To videos here.

The Revolution 2.0 is compact and easy to transport, weighing around 2 pounds (10.5″L x 1.5″W). It can fit easily into a gym bag and can be used at home, in the gym, in the office, or while traveling.

Over time, the device may get a little noisy, but this is easy to fix with a bit of oiling. Heavy users usually do this about once a year, while others may go much longer. To quiet the noise, apply a few drops of clean oil—such as 3-in-1 oil or even car oil—into one key spot. The type of oil isn’t critical, as long as it’s clean.

Look down into the center of the unit, where you’ll see red and white material. Apply 4-5 spaced-out drops of oil into this area. Stand the unit upright on its end for a few hours with no tension to let the oil penetrate. Afterward, turn the device multiple times to work the oil in. This should resolve most issues.
