View Full Version : Leather Straps
Anyone use them? I just started to, so far I like them in some ways, but in others they kind of blow.

never tried leather straps. Is it easy to tighten grip with those? I only like straps that can get as tight as possible or else can't go as heavy

That's the only thing with them it's a bit tricky to tighten it up, once you figure it out it can be done.
I keep tearing the fuck out of the cotton style ones. I have some heavy duty ones but those are so hard to hang onto.

that's funny, same problem here. That's why I bought the "hookers" but they slide down my wrist leaving the weights hanging. I'll get myself some leather straps and hopefully that will solve the problem!
i got he hook ones also. good for certain things

it's funny..here we are talking about what straps are good for gripping, making me think about how Johnny Jackson doing 765lb deadlifts for reps with no straps whatsoever
Yeah, well I dont' have the greatest grip strength :p

I would be doing good if I can do 315 for reps without straps nonetheless 765

My leather straps are still holding strong, they have got a bit deformed 'stretched' etc but still doing ok.
