Never had this problem buddy, looks like you didnt have a good grip on the bar and you let the straps pull on your wrist way to much. Wrap it tighter

[KillerHerts]

... do we have any other suggestions or we all just anti straps

wrap tighter or just deal with it. i walk away from back day every time with those marks. they shouldnt actually bother you?

pulled 335x12 for 5/3/1 with my straps and they only left a minor buise, are yours padded or just the nylon/cotton/whatever? also it looks like youre not wrapping right if the strap goes up that high on the top of your forearm

Have you tried using different grips?

i do alternate grip with deadlift at a lower weight i can just hold in my hands.

Just start doing things without straps as much as you can. Chalk up for deadlifts, and only use the straps when you actually can't grip the bar anymore.

I used straps for a bit, but then I just started getting too lazy for straps. Haven't had a problem with my grip since, I can pull 405 with just some chalk.

no straps > straps in my opinion.

[FrozenMercury]

I've misplaced my straps some where in my house. Not that my lifts were heavy enough to warrant them lol. Chalk isn't allowed in my gym. Still see it from time to time from the old schoolers.
