4. Setup and Usage

4.1. Wearing the Straps

1. Insert your hand through the loop of the strap. The padded section should rest comfortably on the back of your wrist.
2. Adjust the strap so that the loose end hangs down on the palm side of your hand.
3. Ensure the strap is snug but not overly tight around your wrist, allowing for blood circulation.

4.2. Wrapping the Bar

1. With the strap hanging from your wrist, place your hand over the barbell or dumbbell.
2. Feed the loose end of the strap underneath the bar, between the bar and your palm.
3. Wrap the strap around the bar one or more times, depending on the length and your preference, ensuring it is tight against the bar.
4. Grip the bar firmly, securing the wrapped strap between your fingers and the bar.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Do not use harsh chemicals or bleach.
• Drying: Air dry completely before storing. Do not tumble dry or expose to direct sunlight for prolonged periods.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and moisture.
• Inspection: Regularly check for fraying, tears, or damage to the stitching and padding.

6. Troubleshooting

Issue: Straps feel too stiff or slick out of the box.

Solution: New straps may require a break-in period. Continue using them, and they will become more pliable and less slick over time with use.

Issue: Straps are not providing adequate grip support.

Solution: Ensure the strap is wrapped tightly around the bar and that you are maintaining a firm grip with your hand. The strap should be secured between your fingers and the bar. Adjust the number of wraps if necessary.

Issue: Wrist padding feels uncomfortable or too loose/tight.

Solution: Adjust the position of the loop on your wrist to ensure the padding sits correctly on the back of your wrist. The strap should be snug but not restrict circulation.
