Barbell and Dumbbell Beastgrip for Weightlifting & Muscle Building - Strength Training Equipment

Exactly what they look like. I wouldn't change a thing about them. Very solid, quality built product at a pretty good price, (compared to the more expensive 'FatGripz'). They arrived on time, and shortly after, I received a personalized message from the owner of the 'Beast Gear' business himself, asking if everything was alright with them and if I had any questions; very direct customer support.As an intermediate powerlifter and gym-rat, I can highly recommend these... especially when it comes to grip/forearm training. I have only trained with them a couple of times so far, but they are very grippy (rubberized surface), unlike some of the cheaper variants on Amazon that apparently aren't very grippy, and don't fit around bars well. This is not the case for 'Beast Grips'. They definitely increase forearm activation when doing wrist curls, and other forearm exercises. I also tried them on deadlifts... (emphasis on "tried"), I can usually (double overhand) grip anything up to about 150kg/330lbs, however with the 'Beast Grips' applied, I couldn't even (double overhand) grip 100kg/220lbs! Guess I'll have to start working my grip more now... fortunately, now I have the perfect product for that!I plan on using these occasionally on pressing movements too (especially bench, and OHP). Apparently thicker grips on pressing movements reduce joint stress, not sure if that's true, but they definitely make presses feel different... which could be beneficial for reducing the law of accommodation. We'll see...Anyway... definitely recommended for those who know what to do with them. I wouldn't recommend them for beginners because they're simply unnecessary. However, if you have been lifting for at least a few months, and you want to step up your grip game, or you simply want to introduce new stimulus on familiar lifts, give em' a try! They're only like £18 and they'll last for years, plus I think they'd be beneficial for bicep training too.

Excellent!! Definitely makes a difference to my training. Have much better grip and control over the weights.

I love the idea. Using smaller ones now from another brand. These are good but my hands aren't quite big enough to get enough of a hold on them. Just a bit precarious for say, average or smaller guys when lifting.Not the fault of the manufacturer/supplier. Excellently made and packaged product. Stupidly, I threw the boxes away so can't return.

Chose these over other alternatives due to the great price and having bought (and constantly use) Beast Gear's skipping rope as well (really recommend those too).The build quality is great. I know on a lot of these reviews you wonder how much the reviewer knows about the alternatives, but really - I can't imagine it being any better. There just isn't any point. Not a superlative, it is a simple product just very made well. Had it wrapped around barbells, dumbells, EZ-bars, even kettlebell handles and it works like a charm. Nice grip surface, and made of strong rubber/plastic material that hangs on, while being very durable and offers a tiny bit of give so you can really grab hold of it. Useful when you're looking to really blast your arms, especially when you're in the middle ground where you know you can push more but the weight is a bit much, I use these on a slightly lower weight and make the most of the high rep sets (let's be honest, getting the pump through high reps on arms can be tedious and dull to get the work to kick in). Used these on smith machines too. A nice mixer to keep things interesting.It's a bright red, so bear that in mind if you want something low key. But to be honest, it's just a small gadget and the red motivates you to really go for it in the gym.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. No frills, nice and comfortable in the hand. Feeling effects in grip, forearm strength and general strength.

Noticed the difference in my workouts straight away. Can't lift as much with these and the soreness the next day is very noticeable so the product does what it says and will help increase strength and muscle growth without a doubt. The only downside is that one (of the two) grip wraps too loosely around my bar so it slides around. I suspect it might just be the one I received as I haven't read this as an issue with outher reviews.

Excellent alternatives to the famous fat gripz, I've got the original fat gripz for home use but needed some for the gym and took a gamble on these as their half the price and my word they are worth it. Easy to put on and take off.

I do a bunch of sets of 10-15 reps pull ups easy on a standard bar, I have a strong back for pull ups but always felt my grip strength was weakI’ve put these on the bar last night before me workout and was shocked by the extra difficulty they add my rep range has gone down to between 1-5 it’s a good struggle to hang onWorks for me so far so good, 100% wish I’d invested in these awhile ago so I’d be more used to the thick bar by now
