Which Resistance Level Is Right For Me?
Therapy putty comes in a range of different resistance levels. This particular putty is firmer than most of the putties in the CanDo range, meaning that it is more difficult to stretch and mould. For general resistance training, we would recommend choosing a lighter-resistance putty and working your way up to these firmer options.
Please Note: If you are recovering from injury, or have a condition / affliction that effects your hands, wrists, or fingers, we would recommend talking to your healthcare provider about the resistance level that's right for you.
