Snapped an extensor tendon on the back of my ring finger. “Mallet finger.” I couldn’t believe such a tiny injury can sideline weight training. Almost said forget it and ignored the problem. But gave it a chance to heal. 8 weeks of absolutely no bending of the finger, keeping it dead straight. Imagine trying to grip a heavy dumbbell and keep one finger straight while the rest make up for the loss. Pull-lifts were almost impossible for a dumbbell and barbell user. After a few weeks, got this in the mail and it was just enough to assist the remaining fingers to avoid bending the damaged one. Saved my sanity and let me get back to the iron-meditation. Now that it’s almost healed it still serves to protect it while learning to bend lightly again. Well worth the cost. I’d heard using these can help concentrate on form. Not one for assistance, I honestly prefer a more natural approach but after trying these I can see what people mean. Never realized how a little assistance can make you focus on the target muscle. Will use them off and on after healing on the days where the weight amount is increased to focus on form.

I’ve tried numerous lifting straps/grips over the years, but none that have surpassed these excellent grips. Their design is great; very quick to apply and release from the bar. Most importantly, though, these things are DURABLE! I’ve had them for 5 years, and there are no areas of notable breakdown anywhere on them. Highly recommend.

Get some. These are a must have for just about any type of lifting, push or pull. Durability is excellent.

they are super durable, very well built, i think they will last forever

Perfect straps at a great price, I expect they will last

Perfect tool that enabled me to continue with deadlifts after breaking a finger and losing my ability to maintain a good grip.

These grips have been a game changer for both me and my wife in our deadlifts and any other lifts that require a good grip. Both me and my wife have small hands but we have had no problem using these so I would definitely recommend them to anyone with smaller hands. I have tried traditional lifting straps and could never get the hang of using them correctly (probably because of my small hands) and I have also used lifting hooks. These Harbinger Lifting Grips worked far better for me than either the straps or hooks. I would definitely recommend these to anyone whose grip strength is holding them back on comfortably lifting more weight.

Great quality. Super thick material, won't ware down for a while. Great price for the quality you get.
