improve your grip strength with pullups, farmers walk, exercises like that. don't waste time on stupid squeezing exercises. try holding a cinder block or large weight plate with just your fingertips for as long as you can without dropping it. do it on a regular basis, trying to hold on longer each time. try pullups holding onto a towel draped over a bar or rafter.

Ok, I have very weak hands, mine are due to loads of operations and having a bad auto-immune disease, but I do go to the PT To get some work on my hands. There are actually a lot of little machines that will help build up the hands. There is one that is ;ike a big coil and you hold it in one hand and squeeze and squeeze and it helps with strength.. If you can get to a hand therapist for a day they can probably help you. A lot of these hand things are quite cheap

you can buy special equipment that you squeeze to improve your grip, but a soft ball will do as well. just keep squeezing something as often as you can.
