yes some people train their fingers by using rubber bands. then putting more/stronger rubber bands on for added resistance.

hope this helps.

If this is a legit question, then pinch grip training is your best choice IMO.

Stop wearing gloves and your gip strength will skyrocket.  Not sure if it really fits into the whole fingers debate  JMO.

Great link!  Look up information on "campus board" training as well.  rock climbers use them quite a bit.
