Summary
The Element 26 Figure 8 Straps are certain to keep your grip on a barbell or dumbbell comfortably, taking a secure type of strap and adding neoprene padding for comfort. With a design that “locks” you into the bar, it’s ideal for deadlifts, but not Olympic weightlifting, where you might need a quick bail from the barbell. Although it comes in three different sizes, several reviews claim the straps run large, so be mindful of the size you should actually purchase.
