Much like lifting straps, figure 8 straps are a useful companion to have during your gym sessions! ποΈββοΈHowever, some people have some doubts about them, so lets talk about it here!
Here are some PROS and CONS of having and using figure 8 straps
PROS: β
1. These straps help alleviate the stress off your grip, so you have to worry if your hands are too small or too weak to support the weight! πͺπ»
2. With grip strength out of the question, you can focus on pulling heavier weights that your back and lats can handle! Grip strength can often hinder your backβs full potential. Thus, the straps help you to fully reach that potential!ποΈββοΈ
3. At just $6.64, this comes at a steal! π€You donβt have to drop a bomb having to purchase straps! I will include the link of the straps I use below ππ»
4. Because figure 8 straps help to lessen the load off your hands when lifting, they help to reduce callouses! So your hand can maintain its silky smooth texture π
5. These straps are hella durable! Have had mine for 4 years and still going strongβπ»βπ»
Cons: β
1. Although not hard, but some may find having to set up the straps for your lift may be tedious and unnecessary.π€
2. You might grow a dependency onto the straps. Having your back lifting heavier than your arms can support.π₯Ή
3. You might have uneven muscle growth! While you work your back, your forearms and grip have been on holidayποΈ, thus the growth might be uneven in the long run πͺ
Have you decided on whether you need them? If yes, I have also included a guide on how to use them! Have fun in your next workout!
