Great if your grip is holding you back
I had surgery on my wrist several years ago which left me with bad nerves and very poor grip in my left hand. Ive been lifting for about a year and my grip has always been the point of failure when it came to any pull lift.
Not any more.
Quality straps do exactly what they say on the packet.
Only thing i dont like about them is that there are a few rough edges on the padding and seams of the strap where it feels a bit singed. Little bit irritating.
Review of core sliders not straps (Great customer service!)
First and foremost I’d like to stress customer service was great. I originally purchased the weight lifting straps which felt more uncomfortable than usual so I gave them back. Ben from Beast Gear explained occasionally you can have manufacturer faults when you make so many but gave me a full refund and an opportunity to try the same item or another at a similar price point free of charge. I went with the core sliders instead which were fine as I’d already ordered the lifting straps from elsewhere.
Only criticism would be that I was inundated with emails about how the product was and how I was getting on. The first email is a nice touch but thereafter it’s a bit much – hence the 4* and not 5*.
Comfy and good grip!
So this is my second pair of these wraps (after leaving my previous ones at the gym 🙁 ), bought them again instantly as they are comfy to use and provide good grip. Originally thought that the silicone dots would be a gimmick but they do work when you’re a few sets in!
Would recommend these to anyone.
I am a newbie to lifting and do it for health not strength.

Amazing. Game changers for me
Absolutely mint. The first session with them they felt really stiff, but the softened up and now they’re perfect. I was recovering from a forearm injury, and getting back into lifting. This let me shift the focus from grip strength to whatever life I was doing. Using them for back day is a total game changer! Ben has been super friendly and helpful as well

brilliant lifting straps... does the job it’s intened to do!
I bought this product to help focus on isolating my traps. I found every time I do shrugs with barbell or dumbbell my forearms would fatigue a lot quicker than my traps. I bought the beast gear straps in the hope to relieve this problem and it did just that.
Since using the straps I have been able to increase the weight by 70% and it really isolates and fatigues my traps. Part of the wrap will dig in to my wrist and feel a tiny bit uncomfortable but this is probably to do with the fact that I have small wrists as there is a soft foam padding on the inside, this never phases me as I’m in the zone ready to go.
The design is very good! There is a dotted red rubber grip on inside which wraps around to bar with ensures the straps don’t move. I would 100% recommend this product. I take these with me every time I am doing my traps in the gym. If you want to push yourself that little further on some of your pull exercises then purchase then these will be great for you.
They even sent a little guide to help you use the straps and when you should/shouldn’t use them.
I don’t usually write reviews but I felt I had to with this as the straps were really good and customer service you brilliant to.
High quality item at a great price!
I’ve used cheaper straps before and these are on a whole other level. The main advantage to these are that they are very comfortable to use. The rubber on the straps also add the extra grip. I have already passed my PBs but now I need to train on my grip strength.

These straps got me feeling like 2002 Brock Lesnar, 2005 Batista, Fast Five Dwayne Johnson! I absolutely love these! Used gloves before but for some reason it felt like my hands were always slipping. These are PERFECT for deadlifts and barbell shrugs/rows. Haven’t looked or checked any other exercises but these a re a great investment.
Less stress on the wrists and hands. It might take a while for someone to get used to them (especially if you have never used something like this before) but for real, these are great.
Five stars. No exaggeration. Get them if you want to reach your goals.
Seriously.
Stop reading this and buy them now.
Excellent quality and very prompt service!
The straps I ordered are of an excellent quality and look great! I have a few uses to see how they fair after long term use, but by looking at the quality of the product I can imagine they’ll fair rather well for a long time to come.
Also I would like to add that the beast gear team are very polite and helpful if their assistance is needed.
Comfortable and secure.
Have been incorporating more compound movements into my training and realised pretty quick I was going to have grip issues with the deadlift. Bought these to try reduce issues due to sweat or general grip weakness in heavier lifts, and have found them to be fantastic so far. Using them a little over 6 months and have found them to be very comfortable and very secure.

Fantastic straps, fantastic company
After 7 years with my trusty old straps I decided to treat myself to a new pair. These are brilliant. They are very well priced and you can tell from their feel that they are durable too. The extra grip from the lettering on the straps is a bonus and the extra padding on the wrist part of each strap really helps when it comes to comfort on those heavy sets. No more red wrists! I use them for my heaviest pulls and rows and have not been disappointed. The service from Beast Gear has also been first class – they are a company who care about their customers.

Amazing as always!
I have got a few things from beast gear (lifting belt and wrist supports) and just like them this is an amazing product. Does just what you want and it doesn’t hurt your wrists to much when lifting. This alone helped me reach a new pr on deadlift and when I added the belt it took me even higher. They are also very durable as I’ve had these for a while now and they are showing no signs of wear. Externally worth a buy!

How have I lived without these!
For something so inexpensive they make all the difference. I’m not a fan of lifting gloves and these are a great alternative.
I was struggling with the bar slipping during dead lifts, but no more. Also good for rows and pull ups.
Well worth the money.
Best straps you will ever buy!!!
A great and we’ll made product, it does exactly what it says on the tin, I’ve experienced using other straps from different brands but noticed over time the straps wear off and break, with Beast Gear straps I can lift heavy and not worry about them giving way due to their unique design, and Ben is always there if you need any questions answered

Fantastic product! Better then most others out there on the market, would highly recommend.
To note as well the extra padding on the straps really helps when doing some big lifts! With my previous straps they would slightly cut into my wrist but with these nothing at all
10/10
Also delivery right on time, so didn’t have to wait long

Don't scroll past these straps, they are fantastic!
Great straps, from a very good small independent manufacturer. Don’t let that put you off though. They are incredibly high quality and provide great grip! I’m barely holding the bar with them on and find my entire focus is on my drive and push with legs and back. The actual grip becomes an afterthought. Cannot praise them enough, the rubber outside grip on them, which admittedly does seem gimmicky at first, genuinely has a huge help! Don’t buy any other straps get these.

Highly recommended
Brought the straps a couple weeks ago, saw dramatic improvement in my lifting. Before, my deadlift was stuck at 160KG as the bar would put strain on my wrists and would slip through my fingers. After, saw improvement days after, being able to lift 180KG just from the fact My wrists where more supported. Also from this fact it helped my technique as I was able to concentrate more on it, rather than being distracted on the strain. overall great product and very comfortable, highly recommend.

Just what was needed - and great customer service
The lifting straps were a present for our son.
He’s very impressed with the lifting straps and they have helped him reach new personal best results at his recent training sessions.
The lifting straps appear very well made and the customer service is excellent. The package included detailed instructions and we received a follow up email with more details and an invitation to ask for direct support, as needed.

Great produc
Excellent product exactly as described, well made and good length.
I’ve purchased a number of items from this company now, their customer service is excellent and reliability of both the company and products is second to none. I would highly recommend this product and company as a whole. I am not related nor do I get anything from this but when I receive good service and products I’m very happy to recommend them.
They do the job well
I’ve only used these once so far, but they helped me hang on to the bar during RDLs when my grip was beginning to fail.
Easy to fit, and they feel very secure.
If you’re not used to using straps, a guide can be downloaded from the Beast Gear website. Personally, I think the pictures could be a little bigger but the text is easy to follow.
I would definitely recommend these straps.

perfect!
Perfect, very happy. I tried a friend’s pair before I bought these, and he lifts very, very heavy, with these straps, for a long time. I knew they are long lasting and heavy duty before buying. These are very comfortable and easy to use. It’s so frustrating to have to stop short of what you can lift with these straps, and the form is easier to focus on at heavy weight, it already has changed my whole workout! The guide is helpful too.

Better than expected
I have never used lifting assistance before, but going heavier than normal, I needed something to help me. These straps are great and have improved my lift. Obviously I will strenghten my grip over time, but initially they are a great help. I can get the first strap in place really easily but the second is fiddly, which I suppose most people find until they get used to using them.

Price is good and product is sound
I bought these as I lost my previous straps , I find then sturdy and easy fitting , the rubber spots in the straps give extra grip on the bar and make for a good clean lift with an easy release when finished. I use them for deadlifting primarily but can be used for dumbbell pulls as well. I have only used them a couple of times but am very happy with the produc

EXACTLY WHAT I NEEDED
with increasing the weight of my lifts combined with having nerve damage in my left hand moving up the weight was becoming more and more difficult until I hit a block and it was near impossible for me to even grip the db.. Bought these straps after a friend recommended them and couldnt of helped more!! i can rep the weight i was unable to hold for 2 before and have continued to up my strength. will forever be a part of my training from now on. AMAZING VALUE FOR MONEY

Great produc
I have just started lifting heavy and my personal trainer recomended getting lifting straps. Based on other reviews on here, I chose these and i am not disappointed. They are amazing, grip the bar really well, are good quality and very comfortable. Do exactly what they are meant to. Been looking at other items that beast gear offer and I will definitely be ordering from them again. Very quick delivery and great customer service.

Excellent Value and superb quality
Took these for a spin today.
I am not normally a fan of standard straps in the gym and prefer figure of 8 for speed. Boy was I not disappointed.
Quality is superb.
Solid stitching
All out solid feel.
Racked up the bar and away I went.
Grip felt secure and very very comfortable up to 180KG (didn’t go past there today)
Will not go back to the figure of 8s now.

Rubberised grip is a game changer!
Recently purchased these as I’m getting back into Powerlifting and had no idea where my other straps were (4/5years, no way I was going to find the others) and honestly, I think I’ve found the straps I’m going to be sticking to!
Padding is great and doesn’t feel like there is any pulling in the wrist at higher weights and the rubber grips are an absolute game changer, no chance of slipping at all…really helping with my lifting
10/10
BEAST, say no more.
So for starters, the small family company are extremely helpful & appreciative both of me buying the straps (and leaving a review).
I never normally leave reviews but these were a fantastic price for a QUALITY piece of kit. Love them for deadlifts they’re perfect, especially as they dont leave horrible marks around my wrists.
TL;DR
Massively undervalued piece of kit, would recommend vs bear grip straps as they’re more comfortable. 10/10
Helping me get started!
I was resistent to purchasing these as I didn’t want to be “all the gear with no idea” guy. But for back and squat work my weak grip was limiting my capability. So while I only use these for a couple particular exercises they’ve allowed me to increase the weight I use on those exercises dramatically and therefore allow me to move things forward while improving my grip with other exercises. Well worth the purchase.

Excellent purchase
I am fairly new to lifting, and I was progressing well until my grip started failing. My PT lent me some of his lifting straps and it made such a difference.
I decided to buy some myself and am so happy with my purchase, it really helps me. I have used them for bar and dumbbell deadlifts so far but he has suggested I use them with any kind of pulling so I will put them to the test for that also.
Very pleased.

I lost my original material straps I had for about 5 years, so thought I would upgrade to something better and I am not disappointed.
I’ve been training regularly for 8 years now and mainly use these just for deadlifting once a week, not huge numbers, but I have had 160kg on the bar with these so far and no issues.
The additional padding makes them sit more comfortably on the wrist, extra grippy from the gel sports on the straps and they work very well for their intended purpose.
I feel they have got better as I continue to use them and the material breaks in, so if you aren’t happy with them first I suggest you stick with them and the material will soften.
A nice touch with the follow up service from the team at BeastGear who sent multiple messages to ensure I was happy with the product. These guys know how to do online retail, keep up the good work!
Really help lift more
These are excellent and really work. First session of dead-lifting with these, i didn’t use them until the point I had felt my grip failed. Once I had them in place I straight away doubled the reps at that weight and went 10% higher (only 2 reps but hey!). I also used them for heavy dumbbell lunges at the end of a workout when my grip was pretty much done.
I would not suggest using these for everything but at the extremes of your grip they will allow you to lift more and push further. Seem good quality, arrived quickly and the instructions online are OK…but they aren’t that hard to figure out anyway.
Spot on.
I can’t recommend these enough. They’re a great tool to have in the gym when it comes to lifts like shrugs and deadlifts, were typically your grip will go and the bar drops before you’re ready to stop. Grips/forearms are still important enough to need attention, but when you want to isolate the right muscle groups and do so with a sturdy, solid grip that feels comfortable (and safe!) on the wrist, these are the answer. I’ll be looking at the other stuff beast gear sell, impressed with the quality too.
Great product, allowing me to train weights with a physical disability!
Absolutely amazing product. I have been able to use these weight lifting straps to lift dumbbells over twice as heavy as normal. This was not previously possible due to a lack of muscle strength in my wrists and poor grip. This product completely eliminates this issue and I will be frequently training with these straps to further develop my upper body strength. Really great company, personal and very friendly. Would definitely recommend!

Perfect!
I have used these every 2-3 weeks or so for about 5 months now. The straps themselves are super comfortable because of the gel, something most other brands don’t have, and have barely lost their quality. These were especially helpful for times when my calluses stung too much or when I needed to push through a plateau. It’s also incredibly helpful that the seller emailed a pdf document explaining how to properly use these for maximum gain.

My first ever weightlifting straps!
First time buyer of lifting straps and can say I am very lucky to have found a product with this quality and design. The product works perfectly and has allowed me to reach a new level in strength as I am able to pick up a higher weight without losing grip. Spent 2 weeks training before I wrote this and so I’ve had time to really think about it. Would highly recommend!

Great addition to your gym bag!
I have had a couple different tulles of straps from different companies. I can’t say anything on the longevity of this product as I have only used them once but first impression is the are a lot more comfortable on the wrists and have a lot more grip on the bar then my current ones. Great addition to anyone’s gym bag!

best straps
I have used various versions/makes of lifting straps but these out do the rest. Good quality material, good length and the rubber gripping detail really work. Once I purchased the straps the company emailed me with helpful instructions of how to best use/fit them which was brilliant. highly recommend these.

Solid grip
Though I’m trying to cut down on my use of wrist straps and improve grip strength, these help when the weight is just too much and you end up focusing on not letting go of the bar instead of good form/posture ie. during DL/rack pulls.
I’ve used various wrist straps in the past and these are among the best.
Take it from someone with experience – if it’s decent weight lifting straps you’re after, they’re well worth the price!!
High Quality
I’ve only used them a little on my PR and for lifts in which my grip strength fail but they have worked perfectly every time. They have allowed me to deadlift 140KG for the first time and thanks to the guide videos using them was easy, having never actually owned or touched a pair of lifting straps before. I’d recommend them to anyone that wants to push themselves past their own grip strength. I’ve found them useful for non-conventional lifts too such as hanging leg raises that become difficult due to my gyms equipment and my own straps.
Overall a great product!

I brought these having brought other weightlifting straps, looking at the design they looked good so I thought I would give them a try, I have brought cheaper ones before now and they just break or the material rips into your skin.
When these came I was really pleased with the material but the added thought that had gone into the design, so the writing on the straps is like a rubber compound that adds grip to the bar but also whilst wearing to ensure the straps stay tight in place. Really pleased with this item, will be buying again when these wear out!
My experience
I can now confirm after my training yesterday that I am really happy with the straps they are comfortable and I got a good grip, very good straps.
Great produc
I bought the straps because I developed golfers elbow from my training. Having done a couple of workouts with the straps, they definitely help reduce the load through the elbow and reduce the pain of training. They look and feel great and Ben from Beast Gear has done a great job following up and answering any queries I have had. Highly recommended.
Simple product, brilliant design and great quality
Let me first say that all of the reviews of this product do it justice. I was skeptical whether the reviews on this product were genuine at first due to the overwhelmingly high average rating, but it looks like the product is as good as they say. I have been going to the gym consistently for over a year now and I started getting to the point where my lifts were being limited by my grip strength and not the capability of the target muscles – especially dead lifts and bent-over rows.
I don’t need to explain what this product does as i’m sure if you’re searching for it you already know what they do.
The strap length is long enough to wrap around the bar at least twice, for me it edges on 3 wraparounds as my wrists are very small for a male (~15cm circumference). This is another good point to make: the straps work fine on small wrists which in my experience is often an issue with other brands.
Overall, the design is nice, the red gel grips look very good and seem very durable and definitely make the grip more comfortable and stable. The strap may feel a bit sharp on the edge at first but it faded after the first wear, i guess it’s just from the machine cutting the cushioning, but a little bit of rubbing and it smoothed right out. I’m going to be looking for a weightlifting belt soon and Beast Gear’s will be the one I go for – I have good confidence in this brand where quality is very important when it comes to your safety in the gym.
Delivery:
Ordered the product quite late on Wednesday and it arrived around 9 am the following morning, which was a huge help as I had a deadlift meet that afternoon and it gave me enough time to accustom myself to the product.
Product:
Look and Feel:
The product looks awesome with that gorilla logo and is made of very high quality and sturdy material. It feels very stable when it’s around your wrist and the padding on the wrist makes it so much more comfortable, especially when dealing with heavy loads.
Function:
I am a power-lifter and tend to go on the heavy side of weights when rowing or dead-lifting (all variations). I have used many a strap in my life but they either tend to wear off easily over time and/or do not provide support to the wrist or adequate grip. These straps on the other hand seem like they will last absolute ages given the quality of the material being supreme. Additionally, the gel flex grips makes it that much easier to hold onto the weight without it slipping off your grip which is paramount when dead-lifting (no point letting a weak grip compromise the posterior chain development. I would of course recommend grip training in any event). I could not be happier with the product and look forward to ordering other products from Beast Gear as I am sure they’ll all be of the same great quality as these straps.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Awesome produc
Had never used lifting straps before , having tested these this week I’m amazed at how comfortable and easy to use they are. They also take your mind off the barbell sliding from your fingers ( especially in my hot home gym with sweaty hands ).Would highly recommend.
Quality product at an awesome price and super service .

i have to say these are right up there with the best. great produc
gone through a fair amount of straps over the years from different manufacturers. i have to say these are right up there with the best. great product, comfortable on the wrist when lifting a lot of weight and i particularly like the extra grip from the imprinted rubber logo running down the length of the strap. thoroughly recommend this product to the serious lifters out there.

Better than the res
I sadly lost my pair after a few weeks so brought a cheap pair to save spending again. This made me realise how good these straps actually are. The cheap pair ripped into my skin where as these have a supporting foam to prevent that. The grip on these is also excellent and never pulls away unlike the others. Ordered again and won’t be considering any others.
Better than other brands!
I’ve had bigger known branded straps before and found they’re too short to wrap around a bar more than once. These can wrap 3 times if you need it! Perfect!
A little rough on the inside wrist but I’m hoping they’re just new and need a bit of “breaking in”.
The seller also sent some helpful info on safety and how they’re best to be used!
Would recommend this product and company.

Love these.
Been going to the gym for over 2 years and made significant gains, but some exercises such as deadlifts, dumbbell bent over row, lat machine, etc, I felt I couldn’t target the intended muscles well enough because my grip would fail before those muscles did.
These straps help a lot. The gel spots also add a bit more grip.
The downside is it improves grip so much, that you need to consciously remind yourself to do as much weight as you can without the straps, to naturally increase your grip gradually.
Best i have ever used.
good straps they have a really good feel to them easy to use. my personal best on dead lift was at 140kg and it was stuck there (That’s with out the straps) After i bought these i have added 10 kg to my personal best and continue to improve. If you are looking for good straps that wont fail you these are the best option.
Sturdy and comfortable
Really sturdy and comfortable – really like the grip with these. My only complaint – and this is because I have ridiculously small wrists (I’m only 150cm tall, <52kg lifter) - is that the loop doesn't quite go as small as I would like because the foam padding stops it passing through the loop. Like I say, this is because I am at the very end of the range and this would not be an issue for the average person. I can still use them and have been doing so - and really liking them.

Great produc
Work well and are comfortable. Lately I have been struggling with increasing the weight with my deadlift, this being down to the bar unraveling my grip. I gave the hook grip a go but was not having success with it. I bought these straps and was instantly able to add more weight. Wouldn’t recommend the yse if straps if you are just starting to lift, I think you would miss out on developing grip strength.
In summary, great product and very versatile.

As with any strap, these will make you lift more.
I’ve added 10kg to my deadlifts so far which goes to show I had it in me and my grip failed me.
What I have also noticed immediately is my grip is no longer improving to suit, as such I’ve implemented hanging and farmer walks in my sets to suppliment.
To comment on the strap, it’s comfortable, but be aware that despite any level of padding, a large weight dangling from your wrist will strain your skin and cause mild discomfort.
I hasten to add that the padding on these does go a long way to make lifting comfortable however.
Long story short, great to progress and get those extra reps, but make sure you train grip without them!
Great quality, but not for very small wrists
These are really good quality straps, and I would recommend them for most people. However, as a very small female with tiny wrists, the width of the gel padding means that they don’t seem to tighten around my wrists enough so unfortunately I can’t use them. I have other straps that work just fine, but these just don’t work for my build. If you have very small wrists like me then I’d give these a miss, otherwise I’d recommend!

I don't need them, but my friend loves them.
I don’t need wrist wraps myself, but my… friend, he uses them regularly and thinks they’re ideal for his deadlifts and rows. the grip’s decent, the straps are long enough for two solid windings around an Oly bar and the padding absorbs sweat almost too well. I’m lucky I don’t need them – good genetics i guess – but my friend really appreciates the quality.
Very Pleased
After a couple uses during sessions I’ve gotten on really well with the straps, they were far more comfortable to use than a previous pair which didn’t have cushioning from AQF which would dig into my wrists and leave them irritated no matter what. They were overall better than a previous pair of myprotien cushioned ones, both in grip and cushioning that they provided. The gel greatly helped reduce the strain off my wrists as I was able to maintain a better grip, which has been an issue recently with heavier lifts. they feel like they have a nice quality to them as well.
Seller provided a quick help guide as well and was happy to help with any questions or advice I may need regarding routines.

Very nice straps, managed PRs on rack lift and other ...
Very nice straps, managed PRs on rack lift and other pull movements I was struggling with because of my weak grip and forearms.
Not giving it five stars just because they are a bit big for my wrists so I cannot get them to be tight enough and it hurts my skin a bit. Other than then, would highly recommend, perfect length and they look great! Also, great customer service from Beast Gear staff on Instagram!

I have been using these straps for about a week now and I love them.
I only use them for dead lifts and only for my max weight sets and not every rep. I was struggling to increase my dead lift weight even though my legs and back could definitely manage more because I just couldn’t hold on to the bar for more than 2 reps at a time.
These straps have completely solved the problem and I can now work on my grip strength without neglecting my lifts.
Incase it helps anyone I’m 5’3 woman with the tiniest of wrists and have no problem with the size of the straps, they are easy to use and wrap around bars only using the hand they’re attached to.
Great lifting 🏋🏻♀️
Gift for my brother, exactly what he asked for and he is pleased with the lifting straps. He has used them every day since Boxing Day. Thank you for the speedy delivery, arrived about 2 days before expected delivery day.
Great product + Great service = more purchases in the future.
The item came very quick from the seller. Upon recieving the item, the quality is of a high standard and comfortable around the wrists which is reassuring when lifting heavy at the gym. Seller contacted me as a thank you for purchasing and if there were any issues to email them directly. Got to say, for a small company the attention to customer service is top notch and I will be coming back for more gear in the near future. Highly recommended. Many thanks. 🙂

Strong , well made and comfy.
Cracking pair of straps. Very well made, strong and comfortable as well. Can’t attest to longevity, as I’ve only been using them for a few weeks, but so far they have worked flawlessly. Nice robust stitching too.

When the lift and weight calls for it, I use straps when my grip limits my ability to overload my muscles when performing certain exercises.
You know when a piece of kit is good when your gym buddies don’t want to give back what you have loaned them. These lifting starps were just that bit of kit.
Whilst I keep a selection of lifting straps in my bags I have been interested in giving this type, with silicon grips, a go.The overall quality of these is pretty good. Given the use, some straps fray at the edges and are destined for the bin after a while. The edges of the tight cotton weave are neatly finished so there should be hardly no fraying. I like that the neoprene padding is fixed all around the edges rather than just at the ends, this gives me a more solid fit plus stop any potential of the padding coming away.
The dotted silicon grip actually works pretty good and certainly gives extra confidence when lifting big. Those that I have loaned the straps to, including myself, notice the difference between using standard cottons straps against this silicon version. Once wound on tight the straps help give the lift a bit more drive by taking away the worry of losing any grip.
Overall a decent set of straps that work pretty well when lifting big.
