Lifting Straps

Sometimes you feel you've got one more rep in you on the deadlift - but your grip gives out first. That's exactly what lifting straps are for. They give you security and a firmer hold when lifting heavy weights. Our range comes mostly from Schiek Sports, alongside models from LaFamilia. Shipped from our Swiss warehouse, free over CHF 89.

Why straps should be a fixed part of your kit

Experience shows that on many exercises the muscles in the hands and forearms are the weakest link and hold back strength development in the large muscle groups. So your weights don't slip out of your hands, straps make your training safer and more efficient - and heavier weights routine. Especially on deadlifts, shrugs and rows, they're hard to do without.

Which strap suits you?

• Basic lifting straps - the classic padded cotton-webbing straps. The simplest, most proven solution for classic bodybuilding training.
• Power lifting hooks - straps with steel hooks for very heavy deadlifts, shrugs and rows. Maximum hold, minimal strain on grip strength.
• Grips - neoprene grips with wrist support for a secure hold on all pulling movements.
• Leather straps - particularly durable and popular with many experienced lifters.
