Element 26 IsoGrip Hand Grips for Cross Training, Gymnastics, and Weight Lifting - Gymnastics Grips for Men and Women - Hand Protection for Muscle ups and Pull ups

Upgraded from a pair of cheaps. These are a game changer. First use and I swear my t2b capacity has tripled. Minimal forearm strain and it feels like my lats are using 10% of what they were using before. They actually grip and protect, my hands feel 100% after using them this morning. Took like 6 beat swings to feel broken in. Very very satisfied with the purchase.

I originally purchased a previous version of the grips and have since moved to the current version. I have large hands, but tiny, tiny wrists. I also previously used Versa grips as comparison. These grips are not like anything else on the market. INCREDIBLE grip! One hop on the bar is all it takes for you to discover the difference in the Elements 26 grips and every other brand on the market. I have tried a dozen different grips. The Versa grips had been my favorite, but didn’t last. The Versa grip assists with grip due to a thickened section at the end which increases the bar diameter and sort of hooks around the bar. They are loopless. I thought I might like some finger looped for a change and I was impressed with what others said about the Elements 26 grip ability. My hands measure right on the line between the medium and large so I ordered the medium. I liked the finger loop version but should have ordered the large as the elastic ended up too tight against the webspace with grip motion. The wrist straps were too large for my tiny wrists and tightened as tight as they were still too large. The Velcro was not attached to enough of the wrist straps to allow me to get it to a comfortable size. In addition the edges of the wrist straps were stiff and would cause abrasion on the medial aspects of my wrists with prolonged use. I spoke with the company and found they were about to release an updated version. I decided to try the updated ones and also changed to loopless again. This time I got a large size. In hindsight I should have stuck with the medium since there were no finger loops, however I freaking love these grips! They are just as sticky/grippy as the previous version, but the wrist straps are so comfortable. Because of my tiny wrists I still have some issues getting them wrapped like I prefer, but since you don’t use the grips to hold you by the wrists, but rather directly to the bar via your palm, it isn’t as important as in other brands. I can’t recommend these enough. I plan to get yet another pair, this time in a looped version in a size large and/or a loopless version in a size medium. Get you a pair today!

Super grippy but the quality and fit are to be debated. I’ve only owned these grips a little while and they are already frayed and a bit stiff. And the most important part I should not have fallowed the size guide🥲 they are WAYYYYY too short I got a medium and it it barley comes to the edge of my palm definitely should have gotten an xl or more.

These grips are pretty amazing! They have full coverage of your hand and fingers and grip the pull-up bar excellently. I tend to rip on my fingers and would sometimes try to tape my fingers, but the tape would eventually start to slide off. These grips solve that problem. They are slightly bulkier than the other grips I'd been using (Bear Complex and JerkFit), however, once I got used to them, they worked beautifully. They are so grippy that I can't use the excuses of "my grip was giving out/I kept slipping off the bar" anymore, since my abs/lats/arms will fatigue during TTB/pull-ups before these will allow my grip to give out. The only thing you have to be careful of is if the pull-up bar you're using has too much chalk caked on from previous classes, the chalk will actually reduce the grippiness of these grips, so I guess another downside is I can't pretend to be getting chalk when I'm actually resting. My hand measurement is 4.5", and the size medium fit well. I do have fairly narrow wrists and have to tighten the wrist straps all the way, so I like that I was able to cut off the extra strap length. I don't really use the strap to tuck in the grips when not in use, so I can't speak to that feature. I've used these grips to transition between the pull-up bar and jump rope, dumbbells, and wall ball without any issues. They are a little too long to wrap around the barbell (sort of becomes a lifting strap) which is where the retaining strap would come in handy. The pair I currently have are really awkward to try to tuck in, which is why I don't use the retaining strap, but I heard there have been improvements made in that area already. Overall, these grips are excellent for staying locked onto the pull-up bar and preventing tears which are the two largest reasons why I use any grips in the first place and why I love these ones.

I love these grips for CrossFit. They feel great on both the textured and smooth bars with no chalk needed. The wrist straps are nice and secure and I don't feel like I'm falling out of them.

I've had these for over 6 months now. They are ok. They definitely protect the hands from ripping, and they're great to wear if my hands are already ripped, but the thickness of the material, the stiffness of the material, and the overall bulkiness of the item makes it more difficult to perform most movements. I've used these for pullups, bar muscle-ups, toes-to-bar, cleans, and snatches. When I have these grips on, I have no concerns at all about ripping my hands, which is great. But having this thick, stiff, rubber item between my hand and the bar makes every movement more awkward and difficult. The shape of the grip doesn't quite conform to my hand. I have to work harder to hang on to the bar during kipping pullups and bar muscle-ups. It wears down my grip strength faster. It's common for me to rip these off in the middle of a workout because I no longer have the grip strength to hang on to the bar, and then the movements are so much easier after I've taken these things off. It becomes a tradeoff - keep these on to protect my hands from ripping, or take them off to have an easier grip on the bar. Another negative is that they end at the PIP joints, so they don't cover the entire finger. The edge of the grip digs into the skin, which is uncomfortable, especially when doing a lot of unbroken reps. I recently tried the Victory X2 grips, and those were far more comfortable. I'll be switching to those.

very good grips!! Much better than many of the bigger names and more expensive options. I use these for crossfit and they have become my go to grips.

I have purchased these at least three times and will go for them every time! Perfect for crossfit and for those with tiny hands like me. They are also very durable and a great quality, you are guaranteed not to rip!
