 | Not my usual supplement review this time. I just wanted to tell you about a piece of lifting equipment that is unusual in that, one, it's cheap, and two, it works!
I've got a tendonitis problem in my forearms/biceps. The usual "tennis elbow" type thing from heavy lifting. I've been trying different things to see if I could take the stress off while doing heavy back work and shrugs. I tried hooks – awkward. Straps just annoyed me, what with the eventual hanging from the wrists. I've tried other gripping tools before too...sponges, jar openers and so on. Not effective, especially on smoother bars.
My buddy Michael Foster swears by them for chins, and he's got the wings to prove it. So I tried them. Lo and behold, they really made a difference. My grip didn't give out nearly as easily and I was able to blast my back and traps in a major way, without that arm pump you can get. And my tendonitis...so far so good.

|  | Larry -- I'm just writing to let you know how much I like your product and how much I use it every day. I have a massive fitness business in Hollywood with hundreds of clients being trained each week. I was introduced to your product by a fellow bodybuilder, Don Howorth, who in 1967 won the Mr. America competition. Ever since, I have used the grips every single day in every single workout. They remove the discomfort in lifting, allowing the focus to be heightened within the desired muscle group. It really has helped me with my clients! They all claim the grips are addictive, and I agree. I even used them as floor cushioning recently when I completed 40,000 pushups to raise $$$ $ for charity. They kept me comfortable and safe -- My hands never slipped. Thanks again for making such an impressive product.

| I was fortunate enough to have been in Venice Beach on Memorial Day weekend and was able to try out your grips. I am a former NPC competitor and always HATED using straps on back day. They are cumbersome and tended to take my focus away from my workout. When I got back to Vegas, I used your Big Back Grips on back day, and all I gotta say is WOW! They are SO EASY TO USE! No slipping and I didn’t even have to think about them! Thanks so much!

|  | Dear Big Back: I got my first pair of Big Back Grips from your company booth at the Venice Beach competition after I tested them. I am writing because Big Back Grips have really enhanced my lifting ability and are helping me take my development to the next level. They give me the ability to lift hard without a nagging discomfort and maintain a natural open grip.
“Big Back Grips” are by far the single best useful tool in my lifting arsenal. I couldn’t believe how inexpensive they were so I bought 2 pair. I was a little skeptical because I love lifting heavy and I thought they would tear or shred. It was the opposite. They are extremely durable.
Psychologically, it makes me feel stronger when I’ve got a sense and feeling of the weight I’m smashin’! That edge is my favorite feeling in the gym. People will get that feeling with Big Back Grips regardless of their weight-training intensity level.

| “I bought 3 pairs of Big Back Lifting Grips. I use them for pull ups, dips, bench press, rows … They are very comfortable and they improve the grip. You can even clean them easily with just some warm water. I am happy with my purchase. “

|  | “I have tried them out on every exercise just to give them a fair go ahead. What I liked using them on most was definitely the rope attachment when doing pushdowns, and obviously on any bar that has the deep grooves, like lat pulldowns, cable rows, etc... They definitely take the initial sting off when grapping a hold of a dumbbell or attachment.
I would definitely give them a shot guys, this is a good product here.”Phil Damien, “projectthatch92” on www.BodybuildingDungeon.com |

“Well
I have had my
BBG`s now for a month, At
first I was thinking I'll only use them now and then, but I wanted to
give them a total trial of all exercises. First off they are very easy
to use, and convenient to have around to grab and well grip the bar or
dumbbells with. The thing I noticed right off the get-go was that they
do indeed provide a better grip over gloves -- no slippage, just a nice
no-slip hold. These work awesome for deadlifts, bar shrugs, and the
majority of lat pull down attachments i have. I even use them on bar
curls as well as triceps push downs. And as well as any dumbbell
curls. I find myself using them for almost all my exercises now. I don't
think I will go back to gloves after using these. I highly recommend
buying a pair and giving them a go."
