Step-by-Step: How to Use Figure 8 Lifting Straps

Figure 8 lifting straps are designed to help you maintain a stronger grip during heavy pulling exercises like deadlifts, rows, and shrugs. They work by locking your hands to the bar, reducing grip fatigue so you can focus more on lifting safely and efficiently.

1. Place the first loop around your wrist

Hold the Figure 8 lifting strap so the loop hangs naturally from your wrist. Make sure the smooth side or logo side faces outward, depending on the strap design.

2. Wrap the strap under the barbell

Bring your hand toward the bar and pass the loose end of the strap underneath the bar. The strap should create a loop around the bar without twisting or bunching.

3. Slide your hand through the second loop

Pull the loose loop upward and insert the same hand through it. Adjust the strap until both loops sit comfortably around your wrist and the bar. Figure 8 lifting straps Outragear provide a secure fit for improved grip and support during lifts. 

4. Grip the bar directly

Place your hands on the barbell knurling, not on the strap material. Rotate your hands slightly inward to remove slack and create tension between your wrists and the bar.

5. Perform your lift and release safely

Keep your wrists straight, maintain your lifting position, and complete your set. When using figure 8 straps, always lower the barbell before removing your hands. Do not drop the weight while your hands are still attached to the straps.

Tips for Using Figure 8 Straps Correctly

• Adjust the strap length before starting heavy sets.

• Avoid wrapping the material over your fingers or gripping the strap instead of the bar.

• Keep your hands positioned naturally on the bar to prevent discomfort.

• Practice with lighter weights before using straps for maximum lifts.
