Big Back Lifting Grips Review
On their website FAQ, they advertise that these weight lifting grips are not like cheap competitors that use re-purposed mouse-pads with nylon material on one side. Well, these workout grips look and feel just like mouse pads, except they have the treading found on the bottom of a traditional mouse pad on both sides. But don't discount their simple construction of these weightlifting grips.
I have to admit, I was skeptical upon ordering and even taking them out of the package. But these little square pads actually feel pretty damn good.
Hands without Big Back Grips
One of my interests in this product was to improve my grip and comfort-level when gripping thin, smooth bars as are found on my SA Gear Power Tower.
I have actually wanted to sell this tower on Craigslist for a while now since I already have pull-up bars on my power rack and a dedicated dip station. But I knew this tower would be a hard sell because the bars aren't the most comfortable to use.
I was always looking for something I could wrap the bars with to provide better traction and padding. Well, I am pleased to find that the Big Back Grips fit these criteria perfectly.
The material is soft and pliable, so the pads conform to the bars while relieving pressure points on the interphalageal joints during pull-ups. I previously had discomfort with this while performing high volume sets.
Dips on the small diameter bars are much more comfortable as well. The treading works just as advertised and the pads do not slip or slide during the exercise movements. I will later see how well these grip pads perform during heavy dead lifts.
