British design collective Ma3t designed this amusing Pinch Hold Mug. It very purposefully lacks a handle, as it's targeted at rock climbers.
"With a Pinch Hold Mug, even when your relaxing with a cuppa, you'll be getting a little bit stronger."
"These first editions are not graded for difficulty, but designed to be lifted by anyone though still require a good pinch and therefore build strength. Obviously, enjoying a hot drink from one means you don't want to let go, so take care during this climbing exercise."
They run £35 (USD $45) a pop.

best part is, he'll sell the same product to the same people over and over and over, due to them losing grip and drop/smashing it. that's the ingenious part of the design.
