About this deal

You may be able to do some dumbbell exercises with lifting hooks, but it will depend on the type of dumbbell that you use. This is because the hook might be too big or too small for the specific piece of equipment. Lifting Hooks Pros Ratchet straps – also known as tie down straps or cargo straps – are most commonly used for securing cargo and equipment during transport. They are extremely versatile, coming in a range of lengths and strengths, allowing them to be used for a huge range of purposes – not just load securing!

The reinforced stitching and edges add the durability they’ll need for repeatedly pulling heavy weight. It generally takes a few attempts to wrap the strap around the barbell properly. The key mistake people make is wrapping the strap “over the barbell” versus “under the barbell”. When wrapping the strap, always loop under the barbell first. If you only need to improve your grip on exercises like the deadlift, row, and shrug, and you won’t need grip assistance with any other movements, then hooks will serve your purpose.

If you’re doing sustained movements like farmer carries, you might want to look at a more secure strap, like a figure 8.

Lasso At the time, this was the heaviest deadlift in the World. So you can see that lifting straps can handle an incredible amount of weight lifted without a struggle. Lifting hooks have less of a learning curve, but myself and others have always found them to be slightly uncomfortable on the wrist. This is because most lifting hooks come in a one-size-fits-all model, which doesn’t take into account individual wrist and hand size.

Hooks are mostly used by beginner lifters who aren’t yet lifting a lot of weight (less than 300lbs). For some smaller individuals and women, they may never lift over 300lbs, and lifting hooks would be perfectly suitable for their entire lifting career. When testing hooks for weight limit, this is assuming the lifter takes their hands completely off the barbell and isn’t using any gripping strength to assist. Keep in mind, that if your hand isn’t assisting with the movement, then all of that tension gets placed on your wrist joint. Typically, adjustable straps will range from 20 to 50 inches. The range of adjustability creates versatility for musicians of multiple instruments. Most ukulele straps will fit mandolins and other small strings. Longer ranges are great for taller people and larger string instruments like guitars. The answer to that question is going to be different for everyone. If you’re a powerlifter, then you’ll likely only use them during your off-season training since they’re not allowed in competition, or when you have a grip-heavy session such as one with rows, shrugs, deadlifts, and heavy dumbbell rows in the same workout. If you’re a strongman competitor, then you can usually use them whenever you like since straps are generally allowed in competition. For everyone else, you can use them when you feel it’s necessary — just be sure not to use them as a crutch for poor grip strength, as grip is an important aspect of overall strength. What are the best lifting straps?This material is the least common of the three and is usually used due to personal preference. The feeling of leather on the skin is much different than the above two – once it’s broken in, many feel that leather is the most comfortable material. The slim layer of neoprene padding around the wrist can help prevent skin pinching or abrasion during heavy lifts. Adjustability directly affects a ukulele strap’s versatility, another valuable factor to consider. Versatility is necessary, especially for professional performers.
