Gymreapers Weight Lifting Hooks (Pair), Heavy Duty Power Wrist Straps Hand Grip Support For Deadlifts, Pull Ups, Shrugs - Gym Gloves For Men and Women

A bit of a newbie to the gym scene and the workout routine I’m following uses a lot of dumbbells.. while watching workout videos, I saw these and thought what the heck, let’s give them a try. At first they’re a bit awkward when you put them on but once you actually put them use, you’re going to ask why you waited so long. Delivered today and put to use within hours. I was able to take my focus off my grip and focus on the muscles I was intending to work out. Absolute game changer. I was able to do more reps without the fatigue I experienced before. I 100% felt it in the muscle groups and was eager to continue lifting. The wrist padding so comfy, only obvious downfall was I had to move my watch up my arm. I use it for a timer between sets and exercises so I need it on. The hook has a nice grip material and you can tell it’s going to last for quite some time. I was able to push the hooks back so I could do a superset where the second exercise didn’t work with these.

Timely Delivery: Product was received timely as expected. No delays.Quality: The metal hooking has a rubber/plastic like coating which is great for hooking on to anything instead of a metal to metal contact. The metal hooking is heavy duty, not cheap flimsy material. Wrist strap is a quality made nylon like material with velcro for securing. Very comfortable.Use: I've used this daily for pulling dumbells and also on pull up bars. the wrist strap stays secure and tension is primarily the wrist which alleviates any strain from hand grip and forearm.Overall: I'm very please with the quality of materials and how secure it is around my wrist.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Excellent construction of product. Very pleased with the quality and durability along with the comfort. Highly recommend.

This is my first time using weight straps. I liked the idea of not having to wrap a strap around the bar before lifting so I bought these. The pros are that it a quality product. The “hooks” are made out of some kind of powder coated composite material over I believe metal. They fit snug around my wrist and are adjustable with Velcro. He only reason I gave it a three star is because the hooks do not allow your hands to contort to the bar like a standard strap would. I have found this a bit difficult when dead lifting and sumo squatting, however, all you need to do is work with it till you find a comfortable grip. It’s very nice with RDLs and if you enjoy hanging ab workouts. Overall I am pleased with the product

I have used other straps but these by far are my favorite! the pad makes a world of difference on your wrist. They take all of the handgrip out of the equation you just let the bar rest in the hook. I also used them for pull ups and they felt comfortable and made them so much easier for someone like me who isn’t the best at them. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a comfortable and reliable and multi functional set of straps that don’t have a long set up time, just hook up and lift.

The hooks and durability are fine and will work with a lot of weight with no issue. My issue is the padding underneath that wraps around your wrist is way too short so when I try to go really tight for heavy lifting it bunches up the padding leading to a uncomfortable fit and pressure on my wrist bones. Great brand hut the product itself is not that great.

I can't recommend these enough. I wish GymReaper hooks had been around when I first started lifting. They make a huge difference in pulling exercises like lat pulldowns, deadlifts, cable crunches, and rows. My grip is no longer the limiting factor. No more finger fatigue. No more straining my wrists and palms. I can focus on the actual lift instead of worrying about my grip giving out. These are an absolute game changer for anyone serious about lifting heavier. Excellent quality. Function much better than lifting straps. Great value for the money.

Great for the gym! Very sturdy and comfortable
