An alternative to gloves, straps, chalk and bare hands.

Honestly this is a great marketing idea but I think it is a little like putting the pussy pad on the squat rack

I don't. I use them. As a matter of fact I need some more. I don't like chalk. Don't really plan on using it. I like padded gloves for most of my work but I don't like them for my pulling work. They are simple and work.

Good for deadlifts?

This was my question also...

BBGs on Deadlifts

This was my question also...

If you reverse hand deads, they are golden -- no slipping, no hand distractions. If you do same-way facing deads, they are more comfortable but will not prevent "roll". just being honest.

I'd say that is the only downfall to these and the only reason why I still wear veras gripps.

Everyone needs a solution that works for them. We have a lot of users who use us strictly for reverse hand deads. And others who do not. There is room for all.

Just bought a 3-pack for the free pair. I would be lying if I said I wasn't skeptical, but with the holidays coming up, this is definately a cheap gift to hand out to my lifting partner and a few buddies. Look forward to giving them a try and also see what my buddies think as well.

I picked a pair up at Max Muscle today. If you go to the Big Back Grips website you can look up stores that have them. I ended up paying only $4bucks!

Looks good.

So far so good. I'm using them and they work well. No matter how heavy you go it gives a good amount of cushion and grip.

As a side note they are starting to wear down a little too soon.

looks like a good alternative to straps, although I love straps because when I'm dead tired the straps keep me locked into the weight and I always manage an extra rep or two..I feel like if I used these I might just let go after 10 reps

Also, for $6 they r def worth a try

Great interview with the doc. He sums up chalk users as people that don't like to moisturize their hands.
