Lifting straps are designed to improve grip strength and support during heavy lifts like deadlifts, rows, and pull exercises. To use lifting straps, loop each strap around your wrist and wrap the loose end tightly around the barbell or dumbbell until it feels secure. Maintain a firm grip so the strap and bar move together as you lift. Padded lifting straps provide added comfort for high-rep training, while figure 8 straps offer extra stability for heavier pulls. Choose the lifting strap style that best fits your workout to enhance grip and control throughout your training sessions.
Weightlifting belt helps increase intra-abdominal pressure, giving your core something to brace against so your spine remains more stable during heavy lifts like squats, deadlifts and overhead presses. It enables better posture and control, allowing you to focus more on generating force and less on balancing or supporting the load. Make sure the belt fits snugly around your waist, just above the hips, and that you are still able to brace your core and breathe properly throughout the lift.
To use a weightlifting belt correctly, position it around your midsection so it sits just above your hips and covers your lower back and abdominal area. Tighten the belt so it feels snug but not restrictive, you should still be able to take a deep breath and brace your core. Before lifting, inhale deeply and press your abdomen outward against the belt to create stability and support for your spine. Weightlifting belts are most effective during heavy compound movements like squats, deadlifts, and overhead presses, helping you maintain proper form and reduce lower back strain.
Barbell collars help keep weight plates secure during lifts and come in various styles: spring collars, lock-jaw collars, and clamp or clip collars. Spring collars use a simple pinch mechanism for quick load changes and are great for general lifting. Lock-jaw collars offer a lever or locking mechanism for heavier loads and more stability. Clamp or clip collars provide a tight fit and are ideal when you’re lifting with Olympic-style bars or shifting plates rapidly. Choose the collar type that best matches your bar type and training style for better control and load security.
