BEAR GRIP Multi Grip Straps/Hooks, Premium Heavy Duty Weight Lifting Straps/Gloves - Gym Strap for Deadlifts, Rows & Weight Training, Wrist Support for Men & Women

Having tried just about every type of gym strap available, from wraps to hooks, I was left speechless by this offering from Bear Grip. I saw the recommendation by Dr Mike on his Renaissance Periodization videos for this style of grip but the ones he named are over £60. I saw these Bear Grips for under £20 and they look identical. I read the reviews and they were stellar so I took a punt. I am so glad I did. They arrived quickly and in brand new condition. I tried them today and I can honestly say that all the other grips I have are going in a storage bag in the garage as I won’t ever be using them again. Simply put, these are perfect. They take all the effort of gripping heavy weights out of the equation and leave you to focus on the core muscles you are targeting. So today I shrugged 36kg dumbbells with ease. I could have held them for an hour as my grip just didn’t give up. I was left to make a mind connection with my traps and I have never hit them like this before. Amazing. Yes, it probably means I am taking out some of the grip training from my forearms but this should easily be compensated for by the rise in the weights I can handle. I moved rapidly through the dumbbell rack and ended on the 44kg and I still could have gone higher. The straps are very accommodating for a wide range of wrist thickness so pretty much one size fits all. On the inside are two foam cushioning pads that mean despite the heavy weight, the straps do not dig into the skin on the wrists - making them super comfy. There is no faffing about like with regular straps when it comes to wrapping the bar. You simply flick the tongue over and the material is rigid and tactile enough to grab on the other side under the fleshy part of your palm. There is no time wasted and you can begin the exercise immediately. Also, unlike with hooks you aren’t stuck at the end with the heavy load in tired arms because you are able to effortlessly disengage from the weight by simply loosening the fingers and lifting the palm to release the tongue. Therefore you can knock out those final fatiguing reps safe in the knowledge you won’t get in a difficult disengagement at the end. I wanted to add some negatives to balance the review but I seriously can’t. I come from a family with seamstresses and so I know about stitches too and the needle work on these is perfect. Absolutely no issues with the quality control. I can see these lasting until my old age. I even chatted with the company. They are clearly 100% behind their product with exemplary customer support. I recommend any gym goer, from amateur to professional, to grab a pair of these. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic, durable grip support. I previously used normal lifting straps which exacerbated tendinitis on my wrists, these however do not cause any issues like that. They're very comfortable, with good wrist padding, adjustable fit and great quick grip. They have proven very durable compared to anything else I've used for grip support.

Well made and sturdy. Built for the job.

Wow, just wow! I’m slightly newer to weight training and I was really struggling with my grip failing meaning I wasn’t reaching my potential. These have absolutely transformed my pull day. No more calluses and no more sore hands. I managed numerous PB’s after using these. They look decent and feel very comfortable. Very very well made and the actual flappy part is very good and grippy! The standard size fit very well on me! Took a couple uses to get 100% used to them but man they’re so much easier than lifting straps. I found they supported my wrist very well as well. I did have to move my Apple Watch slightly further up my arm but not much. Still recorded my heart rate fine and wasn’t uncomfortable. If you haven’t already bought these. Do it!

Don't normally write positive reviews if something does the job. These are absolutely game changing. Any kind of pull exercise where your forearms are the limiting factor these completely eliminate. Very comfy, the grips are super grippy and they just feel great quality. Don't doubt the extra cost for these just get them.

Been using these for ages, just replacing old ones that were damaged unintentionally. These will last you through wars. Fit is great, as well as wrist support.

First of all, I would like to say, that I have never used such lifting grips as I tend to only previously use conventional lifting straps. However, since using these I think I prefer them over regular straps by quite a bit. I won't go into too much detail in this introduction but I would like to say that these are the grips that helped me to deadlift 4 plates (180kg) for the first time, at 15. I love them. I mainly use them for deadlifts, however I also use them for lat pulldowns, barbell rows, and sometimes dumbbell curls. They are great, and well worth the money. :) I bought these grips almost 6 months ago and they are still in great shape, the only problem is the velcro isn't in the same perfect condition as when they were brand new but this is no issue as they still hold up absolutely great! After wearing them in, they are great, I assume probably the best grips for beginners looking to improve their grip when doing exercises, however even like me, hold up for intermediate lifters and heavy weights. I have seen that the only other type of grip like these are the versa grips although they aren't available in the UK (to my knowledge) and seem to be very pricey. These certainly get the job done and very well, and I don't plan to get rid of them any time soon. 5 stars.

They're easier to get on for your non-dominant hand than straps are. Felt more secure than figure 8 straps But, they're not great if you're sweaty. These were good for the lat pulldowns and rows towards the start of my back day but I struggled with them for the deadlift set at the end. Felt like they were slipping out of my hands once I was sweaty. I'll try them with chalk but they could be made out of a better textured material to get around that.

Ottime strap da palestra! Taglia S perfetta per i polsi, vestono bene e garantiscono una presa sicura su bilancieri e manubri. Il materiale è resistente e di alta qualità, si sente subito la solidità durante stacchi da terra e allenamenti di Body Building. I guanti sono comodi, non fanno sudare troppo le mani e proteggono bene dai calli. Spedizione veloce e imballaggio curato. Prodotto consigliatissimo per chi cerca sicurezza e comodità durante gli allenamenti con i pesi!

Reseña no pagada, me han costado 16€ y es la mejor compra que he hecho en mi vida. He probado todo tipo de agarraderas / straps (tipo 8, tipo correa que hay que darle vueltas a la barra, tipo garfio de hierro que tiene RDX) y ninguna es comparable a estas. Son de goma muy dura y no se resbala absolutamente nada la barra. Es parecido a un agarre tipo hook pero sin reventarte el pulgar, y sin necesitar magnesio ni nada por el sudor. Haces una ejecución perfecta al no haber desbalanceos y tener que utilizar un agarre mixto. Es una pasada. 210kg en peso muerto (foto) y aguantan como si no llevara nada (flanders reference).

Benutze sie jetzt seit einem Jahr und bin sehr zufrieden. Preis/Leistung ist einwandfrei, wenn man bedenkt, das es Zughilfen um die 100€ gibt. Der Gummi Geruch ist da, finde den aber überhaupt nicht schlimm und der verfliegt mit der Zeit, wenn man sie benutzt. Nach einem Jahr sind auch noch alle Nähte heil und keine Risse im Gummi. Absolut zu empfehlen

Don't love them. They do the job, but are very hard. I don't feel comfortable and fully safe wearing them. I constantly have to remake my grip while on the bar, and can't fully focus on doing the movement I want to because they don't give me confidence

Very useful during back workouts.
