Wrist Wraps

When I put them. And I go to grab a bar. Does the wrap go "over" the bar? Or "under" the bar?

Wrap them in the opposite direction of your grip. So if you're gripping the bar overhand, wrap the straps under the bar. The bar won't be able to unroll from the straps AND your hand at the same time.

Got it! Thanks!

You mean...straps right?

Take them the opposite direction of your fingers, around the bar once, and back THROUGH your pointer and middle finger.

You can see mine here...

Straps yes. LOL

I see what you mean. I was actually wrapping them all around the bar. So you say just wrap once? One loop around ( no need to wrap ALL around ) and then through the fingers. Correct?

My straps are from APT and they make all their straps long. Basically they do go completely around once...and all the extra goes through my fingers. I'll be training tomorrow (Sunday) so I'll try to get a good picture and maybe video of how I do it.

Not a great clip but maybe you can see what I mean. Forgive the lighting...I don't have electricity in my gym and this was shot on Sunday evening when I finished everything else.

Bro! Thanks so much for taking your time to do that movie for me. I really appreciate it. Question. Doesn't it feel weird to have that strap go in between your fingers? Is that the "normal" way to do it? Or is it just YOUR way?




You must spread some Karma around before giving it to b fold the truth again.

Honestly, I have pretty large hands. Big for a normal person (normal/small for a strongman) and when turned sideways it fits perfectly. I guess it took a little time but it puts a "lock" on the strap so there is no way that it is going to move once I grip it into place...unless the strap breaks (and my APT's aren't gonna do that anytime soon).

I think my straps there are red poly with a black cotton 2nd layer. I love them for sure, even though I hardly use straps for anything much.

It just looks like it "might" hurt and/or burn the inside of my fingers holding it like that.

I've never felt it inside my fingers with pain at all, ever. It is locked in. It tears the skin off my wrists like crazy though...meaning that the straps are doing their job and not slipping a mm.

Yeah! Same thing happens to me. That is why I "imagined" the same thing happening in between my fingers. OMFG!! That would hurt!
