Big Grip No-Slip Nylon Lifting Straps with DuraGrip (Pair)

I have been lifting heavy weights for 51 years. My hands started slipping a few years ago and in order for me to keep my weights the same weight, I started using lifting straps. They work very well. I have tried numerous brands and types. Someone at the gym told me about these lifting straps and suggested that I give them a try. They are by far the most comfortable and secure straps I have found to date. They put all other straps to shame. They are completely adjustable, comfortable, and they absolutely do not slip. If you are looking for the best lifting strap, then look no further. ***Update...Have used these straps weekly for the last 10 months. Last week one of the straps completely pulled over my hand (which I thought would have been impossible) on a heavy lift and today one of the straps simply popped open during a lift. Both times I injured myself. I couldn't figure out what happened. Then I looked at the Velcro and noticed that it had become worn and was not gripping as it should. Obviously they had become worn out and needed to be replaced. So be careful to check that the Velcro is in good shape and connects firmly, if not, then replace.

These straps are awesome, and completely kill the competition because of their grip. There are many other good wraps on the market, but they dont have this feature. Pretty much, if youre interested in buying these you know what they do. The only complaint I have about these wraps for a person who is a beginner, is that they don't have padding on the wrist. For myself, I have been exercising for years, so its not a bother for me. I would definitely recommend these straps over any other. I simply love them, and use them for deadlifts, barbell rows, and weighted pullups. They have an awesome grip, and have proven to be very durable. For those who are talking bad about the product, I honestly have to say that maybe youre not using them correctly. Im sorry, but they are really good to say the least.

In my on again, off again work out cycle, I'm on again. I've been at it long enough this time to have gotten to the point where doing shrugs had become a pain since I spent more time focusing on trying to hold onto the bar versus doing my reps. I decided it was time to pick up a set of lifting straps. These looked better than traditional straps, and the reviews were good, so I picked up a set. I'm very pleased. I did my sets this morning with no inkling of loosing my grip on the bar, even when I increased the weight. Not only do they work well, but they are very well-made and surprisingly comfortable. If you need a set of straps, these are well worth the couple extra bucks.

So these straps were bought to help with Pull workouts. They were great overall in their function and what they were intended to do. But, they do get used frequently and as a result get sweat all over them. That's where I believe I went wrong. I threw them in the washer and for some reason the left strap would not reach over my wrist to velcro down. Sure enough after inspection it had shrunk in the washer, the seams had that it. So although they are great to use, I highly recommend you wash them by hand and with cool water if possible.

Originally gave this two stars after one workout. After a second workout I'm dropping it to 1 star. These things are terrible. It's a good concept but the slippery material is so useless for holding a grip that any improvement on barehanded grip was marginal at best. Ruined my deadlift workout completely. For perspective: I'm not a crazy powerlifter or anything, I can deadlift 315 with bare hands, and 405 with straps. I was doing deadlifts at 315 with these when the slick material started to slip through my hands. I had the following issues with these: 1) The cuff is fairly comfortable if you get it adjusted perfectly, but it has it's issues. If you tighten it up too much without it right up tight against the flare of your palm, it will sort of pull your wrist skin into a wrinkle and pinch it between the wide part of your hand and the cuff. The extra padding is nice in that it prevents the hard edges of the nylon from digging into your wrist, but the other issues it creates are IMO, just as bad or worse. I've never had a regular strap leave marks that lasted more than a couple of hours on my wrists, so really... is this a problem? 2) The strap part comes straight off the cuff at 90 degrees. Anyone who uses "regular" wrist straps knows the strap hangs at an angle, angled from the pinky side of your palm near your wrist, towards the thumb, so when you wrap it around the bar it forms a nice helix. This strap can be cajoled to do this, but it's a PITA. 3) The strap material is very slick. I even washed mine, hoping it was some kind of manufacturing oil or something. This is a major issue both when you're trying to maintain a solid feeling grip through the strap, and when you're trying to wrap the strap around a bar. As stated above I was losing my grip with a weight I can do barehanded. 4) The stupid, gimmicky rubber material they use on this strap and others. I really don't know why they do this - I've never had a regular, unadorned strap slip off a bar. This sticky rubber makes it very difficult to cynch the strap down on any bar, especially when combined with the slick material that faces your palm. It's doable on dumbbells where you can roll the weight to pull the strap tight, but on hammer strength or other machines it's near impossible. I've also noted that the rubber is chewed up after one workout, so it's clearly not very durable. Get rid of this crap harbinger, please! 5) Others have said the buckle placement is bad, but I don't have this problem. They may be using the straps so the "strap" part is positioned at the center of the palm - in which case the buckle will dig into your wrist. I rotate the cuffs a bit so the strap hangs near my pinky (see issue #1). In this position the buckle didn't cause me any issues. 6) At the end of the day, they are kind of goofy and a pain to use. Regular straps you just loop around, slip on and go. These you have to thread the velcro through the buckle, position them on your wrist, tighten, adjust, etc. It doesn't sound like a big deal but if you want to do supersets or something it makes it difficult. This extra hassle would be manageable if they were better in some way than normal straps, but they are definitely, definitely not.

Well built. Tough. Takes a while to break them in, but better grip strength than traditional cotton straps.

Molto comodi al polso anche con carichi elevati. La striscia è lunga il giusto, fa più di 2 giri intorno al bilanciere

Me encantan mis straps! Muy cómodos, súper resistentes para pesos pesados y el silicon que tiene evita que se resbalen de las barras o agarres.

2ème utilisation, un peut raide mais une véritable aide pour tout les tirage de charge lourde en salle.

Straps are well made, with rubber pattern on the bar side allowing rigid and stable grip. Padding is very comfortable, highly recommend the product

Super cómodas y gentiles en las muñecas a comparación de muchas que he tenido, no se compara el agarre mortal que te brindan, excelente producto!
