Serious Steel Fitness Figure 8 Straps | Deadlift Straps | Lifting Straps

I bought these out of curiosity. Without wraps my grip gives out around 375-365 double overhand. With a mixed grip I can pull over 400 but I don't like the way it feels its very unnatural to me. And with traditional wrist wraps once I get past 450 The bar basically starts holding on to the tips of my fingers and I'm fighting to keep it in my hand as well as making sure the wrap doesn't come a loose and complete the lift.Now enters the figure eight wraps. When I first got them I was concerned that they were actually too big. My wrist is about 7.5 inch so I got the 70s and there was a lot of extra space. But once I looked up online how you secure yourself oh may that was one of the best deadlift sessions I've ever had. With traditional wraps I can pull 490 for one because grip strength even with wraps becomes a problem. With these I did a 490 triple with ease. My grip was completely on the bar it was completely tight and secure the whole time. I can't recommend these things enough to anybody who is struggling with their grip strength while doing deadlifts, heavy rows or pull-ups. It allows you to focus on the actual pulls motion and you don't have to worry about your grip going out on you. But just make sure you still train your grip strength too.

I suck at using straps for deadlifting. These though, are incredible. I took a chance on these, and would buy again in a heartbeat. I specifically bought these for snatch grip deadlifts. Literally, if you wear these right, you will never miss a lift because of grip.Only con is about 1 inch up my wrist, i am getting callouses from these. They really hurt the first few times using - kinda like rope burn. However, if you want to never fail because of grip... 100% give these a try. I wish I had these years ago. I would have never missed a PR attempt.

FIRST! Once you are strapped in, these mofos will not let you go! While my grip on my left hand gave out @ 405 lbs, I was able to keep pushing through. That said, if you try to bail once locked it, you are going for a ride! It does take some getting used to, but I will continue using these on max attempts and in failure sets. They're dead simple to use and the speed at which I can set up, lift and be done is worth the price alone. The straps themselves are of good quality both in material and stitching. Added bonus, Right after receiving my straps, I received an email from the seller offering a free exchange if I needed a different size. That was awesome IMO, because it shows a commitment to customer service that I didn't expect and am happy to be a customer now and in the future.

Work perfectly, and cheaper than competitors. I tried another pair of figure 8 straps that ended up being a little to small by another brand, and these feel like the exact same quality for a cheaper price. I love these straps, I find them much easier to use than traditional straps, and they can handle any load you throw at em. I have used them for plenty of 400LB+ lifts, and they feel rock solid the whole time.P.S. If your wrists are near the upper end of the suggested range, you may need to go to a larger size like myself.

I purchased these solely for helping with my deadlifts. These work great and are definitely what I was looking for. I'm a bit older and I am starting to experience early stages of arthritis, but these helped so my grip wasn't impairing my deadlift lifts.I have the 70 cm ones, and I do feel the straps are maybe a bit too tight. I know they're supposed to be tight, but they are seriously tight. I don't have extraordinarily large wrists or anything.Update: The issue I felt about them being too tight is gone. After using these for a couple of weeks and breaking them in, they fit perfectly now. I can only say great things about these straps.

Intended to pick up some Cerberus straps, but when they were out of stock, figured I'd give this a chance with nothing to lose. Stitching is heavy duty, material is heavy duty - I will never wear these things out. I have big wrists and short fingers - this lead to a forearm injury when a traditional wraparound strap slipped. I went to the figure 8 straps and hit a deadlift PR on my very first use with no wrist or forearm pain. I would recommend the largest size if you plan on doing axle lifts. The 70CM was perfect for me for barbells, but would be too tight for axle deadlifts.

I use these straps for deadlifting. Originally, I was using a mixed grip and liquid chalk because the bar was slipping out of my hands when was doing double overhand grip (when I lift I pick a weight where I can only do 3 reps max and I lift until failure). However, I decided to switch to straps because I was experiencing strain on my biceps. Anyways, these straps are very durable and they allow me to grip the bar stronger than I could using mixed grip. There's no longer any strain on my biceps either and my hands which normally would get really sweaty without chalk stay dry when using these straps. The shipping process is also very fast. I did standard shipping and I received my order the very next day. I'm very impressed with this company and their product.

These straps are a serious upgrade when compared to the typical gym bro beginner straps.One can get the bar strapped to the hands within seconds and begin to pull very fast instead of winding up the ends or a lasso strap.They are super secure and almost impossible to get off without resting the bar down which makes it kind of bad for more dynamic lifts (Olympic lifts) or for ego lifters that want to drop the bar.I would recommend them to anyone looking for something to help out on deadlift day.

I ordered a size small originally and it was too small for me. I was able to return them quickly and get a size larger within the week. I received them today and they fit perfectly. They are a very thick and durable material that they are made out of, and they wrap perfectly around the bar. Great Quality, will hold up for a very long time and on very heavy deadlifts. 10/10 would recommend this product, just be sure to order your exact size and fit!

This is my first time using a figure 8 lifting strap. I don't know if these are that good or all figure 8 straps are. These are much more comfortable then regular straps. They look like heavy cotton canvas that has padding on the inside. They have the feel of being broken in the first time I used them. They are not hard or stiff. I will never go back to the old style straps.

Solid enough construction much like you find from brands like Cerberus. Be mindful of sizing, if you think they might be a tad large, downsize.Pulled to 495 lbs deadlift on testing, no issues. Setup is different than a conventional strap. Start your setup about a hand width outside normal then move your hands inward to tighten. Unlike a conventional strap you can grasp the bar instead of the strap. These straps are thick enough it would be uncomfortable if you tried.

I have tried other figure 8 wraps before and these ones are not comparable. They are super stiff so it makes it really difficult to actually grab the bar. Also, I found the sizes to run quite large so if you can order down a size.

Should have bought the smalls. I recommend the smalls to anyone no matter the size of your wrists. But I can still use themy with the twist trick, and they work fantastic. Most comfortable type of lifting strapsr
