We did a research on different powerlifting wrist wrap brands and YOU were the ones to choose which ones are the best. Before we introduce you to our ranking though, here are a few questions that people who are unfamiliar with weightlifting might want an answer to.

What are powerlifting wrist wraps for?

The primary benefit of wrist wraps while benching to help stabilize the wrist to prevent hyperextending and promote proper wrist placement under the bar. With wrist wraps, you can better stabilize barbell weight and prevent sapping any strength from your shoulders or legs for corrective movements. There are two types of wrist wraps – Stiff and soft. Stiff ones lessens the movement of the wrist providing better casting on the wrist. Soft ones are for beginners and are not as overwhelming.

Are they necessary?

Wrist wraps are especially useful with exercises like bench press, shoulder press, clean and jerk, and other push movements and help improve your range of motion. If you’re thinking of getting into powerlifting, CrossFit, or bodybuilding you’ll notice that wrist wraps are an essential part of most routines.

Reviews:

“These are the first straps I’ve ever used and although the weights I’m presently used may not warrant straps to some people – I still bought them and use them as they actually do provide added stability. And the way I look at it is – even if you’re presently not lifting heavy heavy weights, you could still injure yourself so why take such a risk?”

“Best multipurpose wrap. Can be used for wrist, elbow, and knee support.”

“Highly recommended. Perfect amount of aggression with these straps, allows you to wrap tighter. Have used the 36″ pair on my wrists as well as elbows and have had great result with both. Highly recommended, especially for the elbows, as these are pretty expensive if you’re using them exclusively for the wrists.”
