    Hmm, wouldn't this make your finger like... built and bulky? Your fingers wouldn't be as dexterous, most of your old dexterity would be replaced by raw strength.

    Interesting topic though, there's a martial arts called Jeet Kune Do where they use fingers (open palm) to strike the enemy in the bodies weak points. Its pretty dam hectic, youtube it.

    there are all ready grip exerciser things for sale, albeit they are not weights. and I am pretty sure fingers don't put on weight like other muscles, the actual muscle that gives you strength in your fingers is in your wrist, so you won't get built fingers. For pen spinning I don't see this being useful, since so little strength is required for pen spinning, and stronger hands don't have an advantage, its all in how well you control your hands.

    I think weights would be to annoying to actually use when you can just get a small spring thing to produce the same results, and that it won't aid significantly for pen spinning.

    I dunno ... you'd find every pen almost weightless, wouldn't you? Even the sexy KT and heavier mods ...

    Which means that you won't "feel" the momentum ...

    Or am I wrong?

    ...seems like it's just adding a risk. who wants a strained finger muscle?

    YUCK! your hand would look gross, like its full of tumors, thus u wont be able to spin a pen since all thoese "abs" will get in the way

    i suggest playing a lot of piano... its strengthens your hands. but your hands would probably get firmer rather than bulky.

    Lol, well I think it could be quite interesting, building up muscles in your fingers but i dont know if it would help with PS that much. it isnt something you go to the gym to practice. smile.gif

    even though jerking off builds muscle, it doesnt build the fingers anyways, so ive wasted my time lol.

    Your fingers would be ugly and not cool. PSing would probably be harder.
