Wrist Wraps & Lifting Straps – Maximum Support During Strength Training
Wrist wraps and lifting straps are essential safety and performance aids for strength training. They stabilize the wrist during heavy pressing exercises, improve grip during pulling movements, and allow you to train to your muscular limit—without premature failure due to grip strength or wrist instability.
What can you find in this category?
The collection includes wrist wraps made of rigid and elastic materials for pressing exercises (bench press, shoulder press), lifting straps made of cotton and nylon for pulling exercises (deadlift, rowing, lat pulldown), hook straps for maximum grip relief, and combination gloves with built-in wrist support.
Who is this accessory suitable for?
- Powerlifters & Bodybuilders – Protecting the Wrists During Maximum Loads and Exhaustion Sets
- Advanced Athletes – Overcoming Grip Strength Limitations in Heavy Pull Movements
- Rehabilitation – Protecting Injured or Unstable Wrists During the Return-to-Training Process
- Beginners with wrist pain – Stabilization when the wrist muscles are not yet sufficiently conditioned
How to Choose the Right Product
Wrist wraps: For pressing exercises (bench press, overhead press). Rigid wraps provide more support; elastic ones are more comfortable. Length: 30–60 cm—longer means more support. Lifting straps: For pulling movements. Cotton straps offer a better grip; nylon straps are more durable. Hook straps: Maximum relief for the grip without having to actively wrap them around the bar.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do lifting straps weaken grip strength?
If used exclusively, yes. Recommendation: Use lifting straps only for maximum loads or fatigue sets; supplement grip strength training separately with targeted forearm exercises.
At what weight should I start using wrist wraps?
As soon as the weight gets so heavy that you notice your wrist buckling or hurting. For many athletes, this is around 80–90% of their 1-rep max.
Are wrist wraps suitable for all exercises?
Primarily for pressing movements. They are unnecessary for isolation exercises (curls, lateral raises) and can restrict natural wrist mobility.

Completely satisfied:
There's nothing better than when a customer relationship turns into a friendship. Kraftathlet goes the extra mile. 100% recommended!
After a lot of research and comparison shopping, I decided on the Aerify compression set, which I was able to order at Kraftathlet . The thorough and helpful advice from customer service was great. All my questions were answered via chat, and I’m completely satisfied. After a while, I received a call asking if I was satisfied and if everything was okay. Now that’s what I call customer service! Everything was perfect. I asked about an additional adapter so I could use the jacket and pants at the same time, and shortly afterward I received a message and an offer, which I ordered right away. It’s really great how they take care of their customers here. I’m extremely satisfied and glad I chose this device and this supplier. The lymphatic drainage set works flawlessly—it’s quiet and easy to use. Top-notch!
It's been a pleasure working with Kraftathlet and getting the most professional fitness equipment on the market! Thank you for your cooperation!
I received immediate answers to all my questions; their customer service is outstanding. They are also fair, fast, and reliable. I recommend them.
