Pro, Made in USA, Wrist Straps for Weightlifting Alternative, Best Training Accessory

Versa Gripps are a game changer. I had tried some other types of straps but after having seen a lot of hype for VGs I decided to give them a try, and I was not disappointed! They're well made and do exactly what they were designed to do; help improve grip, maximize weight, and isolate muscles. The Pro versions are exceptionally grippy, have a nice little bump at the end of the pad to secure the hold, and have a little extra length, which I find beneficial even with smaller hands and wrists. Also love the colors, which might not seem important, but training is hard and a splash of color put a bright spot in the midst of pain. There are some people I've heard from say "I don't need straps because I want work on my grip strength". Those same people have eventually started using these and expirenced substantial improvements to their training. There are some misconceptions about these having a negative effect on grip training, however, they don't eliminate grip strength, they eliminate the limitations of grip. When you're doing a heavy set of barbell or dumbbell rows or stiffleg deadlifts trying to isolate your back and hamstrings, you don't want to burn up your total energy reserve trying to stabilize and hang on or unintentionally put more focus on supporting muscles. After training with these for several months, I've greatly increased my weight and training effectiveness and my natural grip strength has continued to improve (turns out grip has a lot to do with other muscles beside you hands). If you have a well rounded training split, you're going get plenty of work on general support and strength. One thing to note on this specific design over other straps or hooks, is that you can quickly and safely remove yourself from a bar or equipment when you need to. Some designs can actually carry some risk, such as with hooks, as you are not able to let go if need be. These are expensive, there's no getting around that, but when used properly the results more than justify the cost and they will last, plus they're made in the good ol' US of A. I know people using the same pair after many years. There is a bit of a break-in period and you may develop some calluses but they'll work in over time and during training you should be more focused on form. I don't know that I would ever strictly say VGs are "comfortable" but they are very functional without being distracting, and you do get used to them. To be fair though, I don't go to the gym to be comfortable... exercise is hard work and takes dedication. Maximize the work for the time you put in. Use Versa Gripps.

Excellent. As they are breaking in, they greatly impacted my lifting for the better: grip, weight, handling are all improved.

Versa Gripps Pros are great and superior products. My 2 thumbs up on Versa Gripps Pros. Durable. I bought my Versa Gripps Pros on November, 2014. I used them regularly, and, in October, 2016, almost 2 years later, they were in great condition. I could lift very heavy weight successfully and repeatedly with Versa Gripps Pros on my hands with good grip without too much discomfort in my hands and wrists. They're not too uncomfortable, and they’re versatile. I can wrap them forward and use them with pushing exercises. I can wrap them backward and use them with pulling exercises. I can use them on many different exercises. I can use them with barbells. I can use them with dumbbells. They’re lightweight, not too heavy. They fit well on my hands, and they’re easy to use. Appearance-wise my Versa Gripps Pros are good. I like my blue pacific with black Versa Gripps Pros appearance. Versa Gripps Pros are similar to and better than Versa Gripps CLASSICS . A Versa Gripps Pro medium/large seems to be a bit larger/longer than a Versa Gripps Classic medium/large and the surface on the Versa Gripps Pro is smoother. After using Versa Gripps Classics and using Versa Gripps Pros later, I prefer the Versa Gripps Pros. The Pros are a bit more expensive than the Classics on amazon on Sept. 2017. Versa Gripps Pros are also similar to straps like Anvil Fitness straps and Rip Toned straps , but straps are much cheaper on amazon. I have used straps before, and I liked them. I love Versa Gripps, but after losing 2 Versa Gripps, I bought cheaper Rip Toned straps , and, after wearing and using the Rip Toned straps with some dumbbells, I can say Versa Gripps Pros are better and easier to use. I recommend lifting heavy weights with Versa Gripps for good grip.

I’ve had these for 5 years now. I only use it on back day. They’re fantastic. No complaints.

Grips are comfortable on the wrist and easy to use. The straps are thick and durable. The functionality of these grips are great. I’d recommend these grips to anyone into heavy lifting. I’ve had them for a while and they’re still held together.

Very nice

Did a lot of research for a pair of weightlifting gloves and these do not disappoint

Super grips

Orderd small got extra small in post, turns out they are the perfect size and smalls would have been to big. If you are unsure what size to get, go one size smaller.

Amazing product I totally recommend it
