Muscle Locker Figure 8 Lifting Straps - Elite Performance deadlift straps, gym straps, heavy duty cotton

The media could not be loaded.  Very good quality of the materials which make them very comfortable on your wrist.Improve your grip on the bar. I would definitely recommend them.I also purchased thr power belt from the muscle locker, and I can say it's a lot more comfortable than other brands.

Very comfy and good quality straps getting me through my max reps deadlift training. No issues with using these on a standard bar or thicker trap / axle bar which is good news! Overall very happy with my choice of figure of 8’s, and so are my hands! - looking forward to using these in my training.

These are great straps they’re just a little bit chunky on the hands when I’m deadlifting, but nothing to complain about and they feel like they will last a long time.

Having used regular straps in the past, I hadn't realised how much of a difference the figure 8 strap would make. Simple to use, doesn't feel like it would slip at all, and takes a lot of tenaion out of your hands

It really helps remove grip as a problem during your deadlifts

I've used a few pairs of figure-8 straps (made famous by huge deadlifters such as Eddie Hall) and they certainly take any focus of deadlifting away from your grip and allow you to focus on your back, legs, bracing, etc.They don't come with any instructions, but essentially what you want to do is:*Firstly, note that you will be using a double overhand grip and NOT a mixed grip*Now, thread your hands through the top hole on each grip, so they rest on the back of your wrist*Wrap the second hole of each grip around the inside to outside of the bar and thread your hand over the top,*Now slide them along the bar so that they are a good few inches outside of your deadlifting grip,*Pull your wrists upwards so there is tension on the wraps*Keep this tension whilst moving your hands (not the wraps!) inside to your usual deadlifting gripIt takes a bit of practice, but you should feel the wraps feel locked in on your wrists as you deadlift and that there is minimal pressure on your hands - i.e. the bar is essentially hanging from your wrists.The wraps themselves are of very good quality. The black and white design looks very good and the subtle 'Muscle Locker' logo is well-suited for a gym environment. I would say that compared to some figure-8 grips I've used in the past they are a little thinner (width-wise) and longer (length-wise). As such, I found I needed to take them out a bit wider than other wraps I've used, but I didn't find they performed much differently. In addition, although they were thinner, they didn't seem any less strong, less durable or uncomfortable. Honestly, they felt as good as other ones I've used in the past and as these ones were a bit cheaper I think for most people they're probably the better buy (unless you have a preference for shorter and thicker figure-8s).Overall, I think these wraps are brilliant for deadlift training - whether deadlifts, sumo deadlifts, Romanian deadlifts, clean deadlifts, snatch deadlifts, etc. They save your grip and are especially useful if you happen to have sore hands or forearms from other training or are pushing higher percentages that your grip may limit you on. The quality of them is very good and they will last for a very long time. At just £14.99 (at time of writing) they seem some of the best priced high-quality figure-8 straps I've come across.

These are really great quality straps,they are made of hard wearing material and are comfy to use,the stitching looks like it will hold up.Very happy with them.

I tried these straps in place of my normal wraps and found that they are easier to get around the olympic bar as they are permanently stitched into their correct shape and wont allow you to drop the bar by accident. I lose my grip on the bar at around 120KG, with these lifting straps I managed to increase my personal best to 170KG, very impressive!. I love these straps they have allowed me to train much harder, I have no complaints at all with these.please hit the helpful tab if my findings were of use to you.
