Wrist Straps?

[MilburnCreek]

I have gotten to the point where my back is able to continue to more reps and heavier weights on a deadlift (I'm at 245), but my fingers can'thold the damned olympic bar; my fingers are giving out (and I do mix directions my palms are facing) before I am. I've been looking online for 'wrist straps," but I don't know if that's the right name, because most of what I've found are just that: wraps around wrists.

I'm really looking for something that will wrap around my wrist AND also wrap around the bar. Is there a specific name for these? Anyone have any favorite styles/sources for said equipment? I need them NOW!

Check out our sponsor ProWristStraps. I have a couple of pair from them and they are awesome. Very sturdy and well made. Best straps I have personally owned.

Look for "wrist straps" NOT "wrist wraps"

Might want to work your on grip strength a bit . Grip strength improves
quickly with some grip work. Straps are fine I use them for back work.
I would still try bringing your grip strength up. T

Like T says Milburn. Try and use straps only at most fatigued part of the set as grip strength will improve and you want python forearms as a side effect from killer grip. Hang on to edge of outside of skyrise. It gives two choices . Live or hit the car below. Ok just Kiddn ..

Yep. I got 2 pair of straps about 7 years ago. 1st pair still perfect and 2nd pair still in original packaging unused, because I can't wear out the first pair !

Best quality you'll ever find.

They have awesome stuff for sure. Just don't lay down a huge order on them, they have been selectively scamming. I haven't used them in 2 years because they just flat out didn't ship my order. There is no way to communicate with them either. About a year later a mod on another board was able to get me half my stuff at least. Check out the sponsor thread at Pm there are quite a few bros got burned.

I have heard the same thing, but do have a dipping belt from them and it is the absolute sickest belt ever. It is one of the nylon/poly belts but has super thick stitching. The belt is pretty much indestructible.

I use the old fashion ones slip through they work fine
