Do you have weights?

farmers carries

loop a hand a towel around a dumbell, like a U and hold the weight this way for as long as you can

deadlifts, when you come to the top hold the weight there for as long as you can

hang from a bar

Squishy balls: the fitness ones come in varying strengths so you can customize how hard you squeeze.

Any lifting with dumbbells will help and, like the previous poster said, farmer’s carry at the end of every lifting workout.

Amazon has a ton of options. This is what DS used for his fine motor strength exercises

There are two types of strength. Finger or forearm.

Finger involves special "rubber bands" of varying resistance. Google it

Forearm strength as the above posters suggests requires gripping. More forearm strength is achieved with fat gripping. Buy "fat grips" to put on some 30-50 dumbbells. Hold them for as long as possible. If you are a guy, then use heavier weights. If you use fat grips every 2 days for a month or two, your forearms will increase in size by 20-30% easily.

Lift weights. Also yoga. I am shocked how strong my grip is these days after restarting both a few months ago.

Girls Gone Strong has a few articles w/exercise demonstration videos that I’ve found helpful.

When I had a significant injury that resulted in loss of all grip strength, I used resistance activities. Amazon has grip strength trainers.

Lol no. I do this exercise daily and it’s a great reflection of how well the other exercise (plus diet) is working, but not a replacement for anything.

Take a firm grip on husband's peen, stroke vigorously, repeat with other hand.

I was a bike mechanic for a summer and my grip strength has been amazing since then. Just use tools to repair things around the house on a regular basis, garden, tune up your bike / guitar / car / whatever, and you’d be amazed how much all those little bits add up.
