Hook Grips

[Jacked Johnson]

You've never heard of hook grips? They are a device that actually exsist and work extremely well. I use a brand by grizzly fitness, and I'll tell you from experience that they are far superior to straps. They take all of the stress off of your hands and fingers, and allow you to really isolate the muscle you are working. I used to burn through a pair of straps once a month, but my hooks have held up for a year. Worth every penny.

Ohh, okay. I just did a quick search and I found them. I've seen those before.

They always looked to me like they'd exacerbate the "wrist squeeze" that people sometimes criticize straps for, since they're more rigid than straps.

Just get regular straps but only use'em after forearm failure.

I don't use straps, I used to but realized that they were a crutch. Your grip won't get stronger unless you work it. My 2 cents.
