Pulling the exercise spring

I remember when I was young, my brother had an exerciser that was made of spring. It has a handle on both ends that you use to pull the spring in front of the breast. I tried it once but I couldn’t pull the spring because I was still a girl then. I am thinking that maybe I can use that spring to give me energy and also to serve as my tool for exercise. What I am using now is the hand grip which is also like a spring but instead of pulling apart, the hand grip is pressed.
 
Pulling will exercise mostly the hands and your chest. Squeezing will do the hands and the back. That is what I think. Every exercise seems to have different body areas it exercises.
