Multi Grip Straps/Hooks - Rubber Lifting Straps/Gloves | Gym straps with strong grip and wrist support for deadlifts, rows, weight training and heavy pull sessions for men and 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.

Got mine delivered today on rest day. I ordered the normal rubber sized grips. I've tried them on and they seem like they'll be durable. I will update this tomorrow though. I'm 5"9 and lift fairly heavy. I have normal sized hands and after trying these on I'm skeptical as to the length that they'll fit round the Olympic barbells and still maintain a decent grip etc. I'm testing my 1RM's next session so will update then. UPDATE After lockdowns, those who worked out regularly can all agree we want to get back to lifting what we did beforehand. Although I'm not there yet, obviously, these grips helped out massively when I tested my 1RM a couple times today. One variable, this isy first 1RM since lockdown finished. I used the grips for deadlifts, lat pull downs, and up right rows. I use the EZ bar for bent over rows and don't feel these grips would be suitable for that bar. My trepidations yesterday were smashed today. The length is just right but I do think it'd be nice to have a little more material to play with and make it easier to wrap around the bars. Deadlifts - work really well with an overhand grip. I can definitely feel my lower back working more due to the grip working. Lat pulldown - Easy work. Yet again, the grips engaged my lats more. I was starting to get impressed by how much the mind muscle connection clicked more because of it and I'm a qualified sports scientist, lecturer and qualify personal trainers. Upright row - Smashed it. With the grip I was able to add another 15kg and complete my sets comfortably. They feel durable also. I have little baby wrists and they still fit and I'm looking forward to seeing how they hold up as I get closer to what I was lifting prior to lockdown. I'm thoroughly impressed. Good job!

Good quality so far. Grip can be improved on leather.

Great quality. Great for deadlifts, rdls and keeping grip on the heavy lifts. Saves the hands.

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!

EDIT 4 month update - I’ve been using these for about four months now and at first I didn’t use them much and I couldn’t say they were having a big impact on my workouts until I used them with pull downs and split squats. The difference these grips make is literally an extra 3-4 reps, once you don’t have to think about holding onto the weight it really opens up the mind muscle connection and you can focus on making your muscles work. I’ve seen some other reviews talking about poor quality and sizing/strap too short, the pair I’ve received aren’t the leather ones and they’ve held up perfectly. If your finding the strap too short chances are you’re using them wrong. The strap doesn’t need to fold all the way round the bar and it doesn’t even need to be tight. I think the way they work is imagine an alternative grip you (shouldn’t) use for a dead lift, one hand stops the bar from rotating forward one hand stops it from rotating back, I believe the grips achieve this affect but in one hand. - The reason I bought these is because I’d seen Dr Mike Israetel recommend Versagrips. They cost about £70 in the UK... Bear Grips do not. The point of this accessory is to stop grip being a limiting factor in exercise where you’re pulling or holding a decent amount of weight. If you think “ha just train your grip strength!” Well is your grip ever going to be stronger than your lats or entire back? Or your hamstrings and glutes? No it’s not. And you will likely find that your grip fatigues before your primary moving muscles do. So why lose potential gains because your grip has fatigued. I’ve used them for a few exercises so far. Hanging leg raises, pull ups and stiff leg deadlifts. I don’t use them all the time only when my grip does become the limiting factor. I’ll start with chalk then move to the Bear Grips of I need to. It’s very surprising how once you don’t have to worry about your grip you can really focus on the primary moving muscles and focus on that mind muscle connection. I especially found this doing back exercises. The grips are fairly comfortable but I’m sure as they’re broken in they’ll become more comfortable. The fastenings feel very secure and they’re much easier than traditional wraps to apply to a barbell. The only situation I wouldn’t use these is if you deadlift and your goal is to get stronger and stronger. That’s a situation where you need to have a raw grip. Use chalk and use a hook grip. No ones impressed by a 500lb deadlift with grips or wraps and it doesn’t count... But if you’re goal is purely hypertrophy then use the grips but you probably shouldn’t be conventional deadlifting in the 1st place. Altogether very pleased with the Bear Grips and I’m sure they’ll be part of my array of gym accessories for a while to come.

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.

I have previously purchased a couple of BEAR GRIP products and have been happy with them—so when I saw these I thought I would give them a try. Originally I bought the small version but they were really too small for me (barely touching the Velcro), so I had to return and exchange for the regular sized one. Unfortunately now I have the opposite problem where not all the strap sticks down, making it poke out. This has been problematic for me when I'm using the V-bar row as the straps ends poking out jabs me during the movement. The quality of the product is undeniably good quality, but I feel like a more simple and thinner strap that can wrap an the way around would have been a better design. I think my problem is my wrist size is slap bang between the small and regular sized straps.

These grips are amazing. I have other brands and they just aren't as durable or as strong. I have very poor grip strength due to arthritis in my hand but these allow me to achieve lifting heavier weights than ive been able to in the past helping me break some savage personal best records.

Nach den ersten Trainingseinheiten hat sich gezeigt, dass die Zughilfen gut verarbeitet sind und recht angenehm zu tragen sind. Alles in allem machen sie was sie sollen und unterstützen das Training.

have been using for 2 years without any problems. Very useful compared to standard straps.

İlk kullanım çok garip geldi. Sonrasında ise bayıldım, hemen sete girebiliyor olmak diğer tarz straplere göre büyük rahatlık. Tek dez avantajı her set arasında çıkarmanız lazım, eli komple kavradığı için telefon kullanamıyorsunuz (

Muy cómodos me encantan
