I was skeptical, but these are awesome and make free weight work so much more comfortable. I can see how they definitely prevent callouses and can't speak to the biomechanics of preventing forearm strain, but can anecdotally share the I was able to lift heavy weights with noticeably less strain on my wrists and forearms and with less fatigue. Unlike lifting straps, these fit snugly and easily into your grip so changing out sets of free weights and/or transitioning to weight-free moves in circuits is super easy and fast. I found these to be an awesome buy and about 1/4 of the price of the branded version that is widely advertised. One caveat: I'm a woman with small-ish hands (size 7 foot) and these fit my grip absolutely perfectly. I can see this item feeling too small for someone with much larger hands, so I'd consider this factor. It really feels like these should be sold in a S-M and a L-XL size. Read more
Great protection for your hands. Take a little getting used to but once you get it they are great for heavy lifting. Read more
These work well. I would give them 5 stars if they were a little wider and covered more of the palm of hand. Read more
Used them for first time in strength training class. Protects your palms from getting calluses. And helps you grip the bar! Read more
These are a LIFE SAVER! Doing deadlifts, assisted pull/chin ups, and seated cable rows absolutely eff up my hands beyond belief. I hate gloves bc the grip sucks. These were randomly recommended to me while I was browsing on Amazon one day. It makes lifting SO much easier and the grip is phenomenal! I HIGHLY recommend these. Read more
I wish it was more grippier, for my small hands :( If you have long fingers this might work better for you. I wish it gripped more surface area. Read more
I’m very happy with these weightlifting gloves. They’re easy to put on, fit well, and don’t slip while lifting. They stay in place and feel comfortable throughout my workout Read more
I was disappointed in these grips. I found them to be far too small to be effective and as such, they were more of a hindrance than a help. I ordered a small because my hands are smaller than the average woman. In hindsight, I should have ordered a medium. Consider ordering a size larger than what you think you would need. Read more
