Fat Gripz Pro - Special Edition Black

Extremely durable, appear to be of good quality. Significantly improve my workouts. Super easy to add and remove. I like the Pro-Edition for heavier weights and the Extreme series for lighter weight (shoulder/ rotator cuff exercises).

Really love adding either at the start or end of pull days really helps me fully tire out my forearms on hammer and reverse curls. Really worth the value with 2 grips, plus you can use it for curls or also pull ups or chin ups really helps you secure and workout your grip.

These work great in my weekly routine. I've been putting them to the test, and I have enjoyed them so far. They will definitely improve grip strength and forearm size. I can't wait to see some results for bicep and tri. They fit comfortably in hand and work great for all size hands. I have large hands, so I've been using them for a lot more than they are intended for. A buddy of mine tried them with much smaller hands, he loved them and bought a pair for himself.

Made an immediate difference when training. Matt the seller has reached out offering to help with the best ways to use them. Highly recommend

Yes you will have some pain go through some agoney but it is well worth it .. so go ahead order it now and begin your journey to ganiz

--Preamble-- Like many people, I decided to try out some thick bar grips to optimize my current regimen. I too was attracted by the idea of improving my grip and strengthening the whole complex of muscles/tendons/ligaments in my forearms. So I purchased four kinds of wide bar grips - Fat Gripz One (1.75"), Fat Gripz Pro (2.25"), Iron Bull Strength Alpha Grips (2"), and Yes4All Thick Bar Grips (2.2"). Before the review, some context: First, you should ease into these things, and so if you aren't accustomed to thick bar grips, I would recommend you start with the Fat Gripz One. I did not do this; I tried to integrate all four into my routine, and as a result I gave myself acute tendonitis in both arms, in the form of Golfer's Elbow. Now I need to take at least 4 weeks off while I heal up, and no one likes that. I don't think this would have been a problem if I just started with the narrower grips and moved up from there. Second, if use a ruler, my hand is 6 5/8" (168mm) from the bend of the wrist to the tip of my middle finger. The Fat Grips One is fine, the Iron Bull Strength grips are about the limit of decent grip, and the Fat Grips Pro are too large to get my hand around, limiting me to fairly light dumbbells. For pull-ups, only the Fat Grips one are comfortable, the Iron Bull's are marginal. I have chronic issues with my TFCC (something I was hoping to help alleviate through these grips) and the thicker ones tend to aggravate that complex. Lastly, I am fairly fit. I am about 183lbs (83.2kg) and was doing sets of 23 pull-ups before this. I could maintain those numbers with the narrower wide grips, but with greater effort. I have my pull-up bar (an Iron Gym) wrapped in racket grip tape, so it is about 1.1" in diameter. Most of my dumbbells have bars that are between 1.1 and 1.25" in diameter. --Product Review-- The Fat Gripz Pros are the gold standard for thick bar grips, and for good reason. These do the best at balancing out material, thickness, grippiness, shape, and cost. While these are a bit too thick for my hands, at least at my current stage of development, I think they serve their purposes well. ---Comfort The Fat Gripz Pros - which are just the same as their standard grips, but in black - are the most comfortable of the grips I tried, tied with the Fat Gripz One. They aren't soft like silicone grips, but they have a little give to them, making it easier to hold them. Their profile makes them easy to hold - i prefer this flat profile to the curved one found in the Iron Bull Alpha grips. The seam has a bit of a hard edge - it could use a chamfer or bevel - but it isn't too distracting. These will not fit IronMaster dumbbells due to those having a 1.25" bar but fit standard CAP weights and my pull-up bar, which have a ~1.1" bar instead. ---Benefit These are very wide grips, for me anyway, and so they require a significant change in hand position. I had to drop almost 50% of my reps, and 25% of my weight, in order to use them. This means that I just moved these to my lighter dumbbells - currently they are on 25lbs - where I can use them effectively. A bigger guy likely wouldn't have this problem. However, there was a noticeable benefit to how the exercise felt, in my arms, and visually I noticed the forearms were larger and more toned. I think that there would be a lasting benefit to using these if you integrated it into your routine, with mass gains occurring after a month or so. Once I heal up, I intend to continue using them. They don't rotate as much as grips with harder rubber, but you still may need some contact adhesive to keep them in one orientation, especially during pull-ups. ---Conclusion While I would recommend the Fat Gripz Ones for beginners, and maybe the Iron Bull Alpha Grips 2.0 for people with hands the size of mine, the touted benefits of these appear to be legitimate. I wouldn't expect immediate, wild results, but adding them to the routine is easy and the cumulative benefits will most likely endure. As such, I would recommend them.

Amazing contraction and pumps, super easy to use and will definitely increase my weights when training

My uncle walks with the assistance of crutches and he never liked the original crutch grips. He found these and attached them to his crutch handles and they work wonderfully! They don’t slide and allow him to have a larger grip surface for his hands. We have only had them for a few weeks but they have withstood continuous use well! If you need to upgrade your crutch handles these work great!

Nutzung und Erfahrungen: Durch die Gripz ist es bei Pullups wesentlich schwieriger, sich an der Stange zu halten. Insgesamt wird die Übung für die Unterarme ganz klar anspruchsvoller. Schon nach dem ersten Satz habe ich Muskeln der Unterarme auf neuartige Weise gespürt, weil diese Griffdicke eine so ungewohnte Sache ist. Auch bei Reverse-Curls fühlen sich die Fatgrips richtig gut an; grundsätzlich bei allen Übungen, die einen gewissen Unterarm-Fokus haben. Vorrangig Obergriff-Zugübungen eben. Sie ersetzen jedoch nicht das Training mit dünnerem Griff, sondern sind eine Ergänzung. Es ist sozusagen das umgekehrte Pendant zur Griff-/Zughilfe. Will man einen Muskel beanspruchen, wo die Griffkraft aus der Gleichung eher herausgenommen werden soll, weil sie zu früh aufgeben würde, lässt man die Fatgripz lieber weg. Beispielsweise, wenn man die Pullups durchziehen will, bis der Latissimus möglichst aufgibt und nicht vorher schon die Hände. Bei den Griffen je nach Übung variieren ist langfristig also die cleverste Variante. Eventuell noch dazu mit einem dieser Hand-Gripper trainieren, wenn man die maximale Griffkraft entwickeln will. Ich selber habe etwas größere als mittelgroße Hände und komme mit dieser Gripz-Größe gut klar. Wenn man Riesenpranken hat, könnte man sich wirklich überlegen, sich die Übergröße in orange zu gönnen, aber für die allermeisten wird das eher nicht nötig sein. Die Kleinvariante ist eventuell sinnvoll für einen subtileren Effekt an Kurzhanteln und damit bei mehr Übungen nebenbei einsetzbar, aber eben auch nicht so direkt effektiv wie diese mittelgroßen hier. Außer natürlich die Hände sind auch eher klein. Haltbarkeit und Qualität: Wirkt nicht so, als wären sie irgendwie kaputtzukriegen. Dazu müsste man schon extrem experimentell und kreativ vorgehen. Einmal kaufen und man hat sie für immer, so wie gute Eisenhanteln und -gewichte jeglicher Art. Entsprechend ist der Preis als langfristige Investition in den eigenen Körper völlig in Ordnung. Der Einfluss auf die Griffkraft ist jedenfalls enorm. Auch als Kampfsportler kam mir das schon entsprechend zugute, man merkt's relativ schnell. Die Unterarme sind auch schon etwas definierter. Geniales Produkt; sollte man im Arsenal haben!

Fungerar alldeles utmärkt. Riktigt bra grepp.

This product is exactly what I thought it was going to be . I bought the mid range grips 2.25”. They are a little on the big size . I do have big hands so it kind of balances out . The limited colour is cool. Easy on and easy off . I probably will buy the original size in the future to compare . But I’m happy with my choice and the product it’s self . You can definitely feel the difference between using the fat gripz and not having them

Works well - put heaps more pressure on the forearms
