5 Reasons Why I Prefer Death Grips Over Weightlifting Straps

Although I prefer to use my own grip 95% of the time, I do find benefits in using lifting straps when necessary.

Like that one time I tore a ligament in my left ring finger and I had to keep it in a split for 8 weeks.

Thanks to lifting straps I was able to continue training my upper body (for pull days).

And yes, those cases are not a common use for lifting straps but it saved me from using the injury as an excuse to not workout.

But mainly for exercises like deadlifts and rows where I can load up a lot of weight and my workout grip strength is bound to fail before my back muscles.

So here are 5 reasons why I prefer using JerkFit Death Grips over regular weightlifting straps.

Superior Grip

Death Grips have a thick rubber strap that provides great grip on the bar, so there’s less chances of slipping, and I can feel a solid hold during lifts.

I notice this the most when deadlifting cause I can grip the bar easily and all my focus goes to the lift not my grip. Using these gym accessories helps in improving grip strength significantly.

Ergonomic Design

Death Grips have a comfortable pad and I can velcro them down tightly.

The ergonomic design helps reduce my hand fatigue so I can keep my intensity for longer periods of time, which is beneficial for hand grip strength training.

And the short rubber pad makes them much faster to wrap around a bar than weightlifting grips.

Multiple Uses

I can use Death Grips for more than just deadlifts.

While I had my finger injury, Death Grips came in clutch so that I could keep doing pull ups and rows. They are perfect for enhancing weightlifting grip strength.

The short rubber grip design makes it easy to wrap around a pull up bar or cable attachments and I can transition quickly between exercises when doing super sets.

JerkFit Death Grips’ high grade PVC (made with car grade rubber) is built to last and can take on the heaviest workouts I’ve thrown at them so they’ll last longer than regular straps.

Although they’re more expensive than weightlifting straps I’ve bought before, they’ve lasted longer so they’re more cost effective in the long run.
