  3. What are Figure 8 Wrist Straps? Figure 8 Straps, as evident from the title, are named after their shape like the number 8 and are designed to lift heavy weights as they provide excellent grip & stability for lifting heavy like deadlifts. They wrap around your wrist and bar, so you can easily lift heavy weights without worrying about dropping the bar.

  5. What makes Figure 8 Lifting Straps so Popular? Figure 8 straps gain much popularity from their historical use in record-breaking lifting events. Unlike common open-ended lifting straps, these weightlifting straps are closed at both ends and offer exceptional weightlifting grip.

  6. Their design adheres to the lifter’s wrists and the equipment, ensuring that the risk of bar drop and wrist injury is minimal. Thanks to their heavy-duty grip strength, these straps keep you attached to your equipment even when your natural hand grip is relaxed.
