    Wrist Wrap Suggestions

    I am looking to buy a new pair of wrist wraps, I've used the Inzer Z's in the past and my True Blacks are wearing out. It's time for something new. I've heard about APT 2x wraps but can't find them anywhere. THe APT website has a few designs but I saw nothis that said anything about 2x...that and everything was out of stock. If anyone knows where I can get a pair let me know. If I have to buy the Inzer True Blacks again, I will, but I'd like to try something new. Thank you!!

    I love my Inzers...but the velcro patch on one is hanging on by the last few threads and I can't get it as tight as I would like. Rock on!

    I use Titan THP...there like concrete on your wrist. Just make sure you get the 24" not the 12"...not enough support in the 12's IMO.

    They do I used to have some leather straps and they would dig into your hands when they tighten up

    Also had some shit tier inzers hook straps

    I literally took them out of the packet used them once then tossed em

    Hook wrist straps blow hardcore



    Gasp make a nice pair

    If anyone has any other recommendations for straps please share cos I need a new pair

    My gasp ones are getting pretty beat up

    Had them 1-2 years now

    For those of you in the IPF all APT wraps will be banned as of Dec31 of this year. I use true black wraps from Inzer, i really like them and ive had them for a year and they are still in nearly new condition.

    I could have swore this thread was about straps


    Duno bout those hook straps, I found the hooks were always slipping off the bar



    Back on topic, are the wrist wraps with the little flaps to keep your wrists from hyperextending the best?

    I don't know too much about powerlifting gear

    Were you taking about hook wrist support for powerlifting benching?



    Because they look like good wrist support for benching



    I was talking about those but for deadlifting




    This is getting very confusing....

    no, wrist straps are just the same as say, knee wraps, they take the strain off the wrist joint.

    when i squat i take the bar below my traps and ive plifted for so long my wrists are fvcked from my hands being bent back so much.

    lifting hooks and lifting straps are for overcoming a weakened grip and in some cases (mine for example) for giving relief to the forearm muscle groups on certain exercises. i can deadlift perfectly without hooks but give me something over 50kgs on a low row and ill need hooks
