Power System X-Combat Straps – anti-slip lifting straps

Power System X-Combat Straps are lifting straps for heavy lifts that help keep your grip on the barbell or dumbbell firm even when your hands start to tire or sweat. The straps are made from durable, thick cotton material with integrated silicone dots. The dots give the strap an anti-slip surface, so it stays in place around the bar better. A comfortable neoprene pad sits at the wrist and makes wearing the strap during heavier sets more pleasant. The manufacturer describes the X-Combat straps as a strong accessory that offers support and stability during heavy lifting.

Cotton, silicone dots and neoprene pad

The base of the X-Combat Straps is high-quality, durable and thick cotton that handles heavy loads and can be tightened firmly around the bar. Silicone dots are integrated into the surface of the strap, helping to hold the grip even when you lift heavy and the bar surface is smooth. Above the wrist there is a neoprene support pad that makes the strap more comfortable to wear. Power System describes its lifting straps and hooks as accessories that ensure a solid grip in barbell and dumbbell exercises; lifters commonly use them for deadlifts.

How to use?

Put your hand through the loop of the strap so that the neoprene pad rests on your wrist. Pass the free end of the strap under the bar, wrap it around the bar and tighten it by rolling the bar towards you until the strap sits firmly around the bar. Then grip the bar as usual and perform the exercise. At the end of the set, relax your grip and unwind the strap from the bar. The manufacturer recommends the X-Combat straps for bench press, shoulder press, crossfit training, powerlifting and other fitness activities. After training, let the straps air dry.
