    wrist wraps

    okay i know there are a million threads about this but in this i was looking more for a comparison between the inzer true blacks and the high(er) end stuff apt has because the true blacks are very cheap in comparison 20 dollars as compared to the 35 that the "the wrap 2xh" cost. Again sorry to beat a dead horse but if the inzer is similar id like to save a couple bucks thanks

    Isnt the true black closer to the convict. I though 'the wrap' was another step up again?

    the wrap 2xh or 3xh is really too heavy duty to be used as wrist wraps, I have a pair of 2xh's and I can't wrap them myself.

    I prefer the APT strangulators or convicts.

    My favorites right now are Crains Genesis wrist wraps. Comfortable with great wrist support. I was a little skeptical with their "wrist loop" instead of thumb loop, but they are great.

    What length are you looking for and what is your current strength level / bone structure?

    APT Convicts are my favorite wraps and they are availble in 12" right now.

    The 'Blue Power' wraps are also pretty good:

    The true blacks are stronger than i can take for the bench! But I've never seen anything besides them and old school ace style wraps. So I can't give anything great

    I like my strangulators...the team has a pair of true black knee wraps and they seemed softer, for lack of a better term. Not sure how they compare to the wrist wraps but it cant be much different

    i have the true black knee wraps and i love them (compared to the z wraps)
    my bone structure i would say medium my wrist measure 7 inches around strength level is raw 365 loose rage x 440 but i have an overkill on the way apt has the 2xh wraps in stock and on sale 25% off. was looking for 24 inch long but the true blacks seem to be only available in 36

    i have 12 in inzer z wraps but they dont give as much support as i would like

    If you put in an order and enter the discount code "2FREE" they will throw in a pair of wrist wraps. Order the ones you like, and if they're not in stock, order another pair, enter the code, and you'll have two wraps to choose from. Plus you'll get 15% off the order.

    And don't get Convict Pro or The Wrap. They are VERY stiff.

    Well, I was only directing it at them because I figured they'd be the ones more likely to be doing it, but thanks for the answer.

    I'll have to give it a try.
