“I have to tighten the wrist straps pretty tight on my wrists as I have a 6.5-inch wrist size for reference. It's very bulky when you get it all on and use it for the extra grip function, and not as tight as I need it to be when deadlifting over 350+. Using these to wrap around the bar at the bottom and trying to tighten them for the grip as much as possible, you can only roll it one time and would start feeling it slip over 400+ deadlifts.”
“Surprisingly effective! I was slightly hesitant to try the Black Bear Workout Grips in lieu of traditional weightlifting straps; however, I quickly found them to be effective tools to aid in my lifts when my grip is gone.”
“The quality of this product is great and durable. The extra grip I have gained has made my workouts a lot more intense and effective. The only issue I have is that it doesn't cover my entire palm and unfortunately my calluses just keep getting worse. But I guess there is no actual way of preventing calluses all together. The Fast delivery is deff a plus.”
“I love the black bear workout grips, they made it so much quicker to wrap my hands over the bar or dumbbell and support my wrists at the same time. Hate to use this term but it's true, absolute game changer”
“While the grips wear very comfortable and looked good, they tore after my second workout. I was extremely disappointed because of how they felt and looked. The first workout I used them for high reps on Romanian deadlifts and stiff leg deadlifts and they held up pretty well. The second workout, they blew apart on my warm up set of rack pulls. Weight on the bar was 395 when they tore. They tore at the tab and also exposed a metal piece that began to poke and prick.”
