Supports/wraps

[Quack24]

How much does the supports/wraps help you lift? My friend has wraps and he really likes them. He does powerlift but he likes to use the wrist wraps. I'm just curious.

All it does is minimize injury and keep your wrist straight.

No extra help. So dont put on a pair a try to lift more than your max, or your going to get stapled.

Depends what condition your wrists are in. For me it helps tremendously

When going heavy DB I use wrist wraps, and the last couple of sets.of heavy shrugs I will use lifting straps...but I try not to for my forearm development and grip strength, but when hitting the heavier weights and my grip is giving out before my targeted muscle group I use wraps.

I never use wrist wraps, and I try to stay away from using straps too. But on occasion I will throw them in on heavy deads, shrugs, of rows to isolate the muscle group and crank a couple more reps out

I tried wraps my freshman year for some deadlifts. But I didn't really like them that much. They did help tho.

Wraps wont do shit for a dl. Lifting straps will help you hold the bar, but it limits grip development.
