Beast Gear Barbell and Dumbbell

Exactly what they look like. I wouldn't change a thing about them. Very solid, quality built product at a pretty good price, (compared to the more expensive 'FatGripz'). They arrived on time, and shortly after, I received a personalized message from the owner of the 'Beast Gear' business himself, asking if everything was alright with them and if I had any questions; very direct customer support. As an intermediate powerlifter and gym-rat, I can highly recommend these... especially when it comes to grip/forearm training. I have only trained with them a couple of times so far, but they are very grippy (rubberized surface), unlike some of the cheaper variants on Amazon that apparently aren't very grippy, and don't fit around bars well. This is not the case for 'Beast Grips'. They definitely increase forearm activation when doing wrist curls, and other forearm exercises. I also tried them on deadlifts... (emphasis on "tried"), I can usually (double overhand) grip anything up to about 150kg/330lbs, however with the 'Beast Grips' applied, I couldn't even (double overhand) grip 100kg/220lbs! Guess I'll have to start working my grip more now... fortunately, now I have the perfect product for that! I plan on using these occasionally on pressing movements too (especially bench, and OHP). Apparently thicker grips on pressing movements reduce joint stress, not sure if that's true, but they definitely make presses feel different... which could be beneficial for reducing the law of accommodation. We'll see... Anyway... definitely recommended for those who know what to do with them. I wouldn't recommend them for beginners because they're simply unnecessary. However, if you have been lifting for at least a few months, and you want to step up your grip game, or you simply want to introduce new stimulus on familiar lifts, give em' a try! They're only like £18 and they'll last for years, plus I think they'd be beneficial for bicep training too.

Chose these over other alternatives due to the great price and having bought (and constantly use) Beast Gear's skipping rope as well (really recommend those too). The build quality is great. I know on a lot of these reviews you wonder how much the reviewer knows about the alternatives, but really - I can't imagine it being any better. There just isn't any point. Not a superlative, it is a simple product just very made well. Had it wrapped around barbells, dumbells, EZ-bars, even kettlebell handles and it works like a charm. Nice grip surface, and made of strong rubber/plastic material that hangs on, while being very durable and offers a tiny bit of give so you can really grab hold of it. Useful when you're looking to really blast your arms, especially when you're in the middle ground where you know you can push more but the weight is a bit much, I use these on a slightly lower weight and make the most of the high rep sets (let's be honest, getting the pump through high reps on arms can be tedious and dull to get the work to kick in). Used these on smith machines too. A nice mixer to keep things interesting. It's a bright red, so bear that in mind if you want something low key. But to be honest, it's just a small gadget and the red motivates you to really go for it in the gym.

I love the idea. Using smaller ones now from another brand. These are good but my hands aren't quite big enough to get enough of a hold on them. Just a bit precarious for say, average or smaller guys when lifting. Not the fault of the manufacturer/supplier. Excellently made and packaged product. Stupidly, I threw the boxes away so can't return.

Did chest using the new grips . Pecs are hanging off . Didn't press as much as I normally do ( just getting used to them ) but felt every rep with more engagement and depth.

Does the job. Still working.

Noticed the difference in my workouts straight away. Can't lift as much with these and the soreness the next day is very noticeable so the product does what it says and will help increase strength and muscle growth without a doubt. The only downside is that one (of the two) grip wraps too loosely around my bar so it slides around. I suspect it might just be the one I received as I haven't read this as an issue with outher reviews.

Having used these "Beast Grips" now for around 2-3 week I can tell the change in the muscle groups being worked - my grip strength is up, my forearms are getting bigger (didn't think this could happen) and I have no niggle on my left shoulder when benching using the grips either which has helped me increase the weight I am lifting again without fear of causing injury! I have used the alternative product "Fat Gripz" in the past and thought they where good however due to the hard and stiff material they are made with found the pressure on my palms hurt if I went heavy on the weights and it was difficult to apply onto bars and attachments being very fiddly to do. BEAST GRIPS on the other hand are softer which helps to ease the grips onto Bars and attachments however you still have the confindencr they are made from a strong durable compound which will last and not cause you discomfort when using them! I'd score Best Gears BEAST GRIPS 11/10. Cracking product and highly recommend over the over priced alternative

Goede grips voor een betaalbare prijs. Nog maar 1 keer gebruikt maar stevig en goede grip. Iets zachter dan een originele fatgrip

excelente para mi barra de ejercicio

Finns inget att klaga på, gör den den ska och bra kvalité känsla

Très bon grips qui travaillent bien les avant bras Ca fait pas longtemps que je les utilisent, j'ai eu un peu du mal les premiers jours mais la c'est bon j'y ai pris gout. J'ai l'impression que la force de mes mains a augmentée et que j'ai gagné un peu en masse au niveau des avants bras et des biceps. Ils se mettent facilement sur ta barre. J'ai meme essayé sur un bar de traction ca marche aussi mais du coup c'est vraiment dur de faire tes tractions comme avant lol Donc attention ca rend toute exercice plus difficile donc ne vous étonnez pas si vous n'arrivez pas a atteindre vos PR de la derniere fois... Bon produit et vendeur sympa et dispo donc 5étoiles pour moi

Love them. Nice modification to my workout, great grip and fairly priced.
