    wrist wrap recommendation. 6-6.5" wrists

    Hey all,
    Having repeated issues with left injury strain. Especially with ez bar curls.

    I cannot seem to settle on a good pair of wrist wraps to get. Yes, I know stretching and forearm exercises will be really important moving forward, but I could use some help picking a good pair of wrist wraps.

    I was considering harbinger red line, maybe some scheik.

    I also wasn't sure if I need 12", 18" or 24".

    Again, wrists are quite small.

    Thanks!

    I'd buy contraband wraps. They're cheap and pretty stiff

    Looks like a solid suggestion. See them on amazon.
    Do I go with 18"?

    Also, I only bench press about 155 for 8-10 reps.
    Based on chart, it says I should get the 3-stripe medium, but it is confusing.

    If you want really stiff, like a cast, check out the SBD stiff wraps. The longer the more cast-like... I use 1m (36in) for competition.

    The Harbingers you're looking at won't be nearly that stiff. They look like they might be like my Titan Max RPM. You'll have to pull them very tight for to offer a decent amount of support. I'm not even sure how that support would work for curling... I only use them for benching/pressing.

    Going to try the contraband.
    Reasonably priced and solid ratings on Amazon.

    Most ratings on Amazon aren't by people who actually lift, but then again, it's just wrist wraps... so do whatever you want. They're cheap enough that you'll learn from your experience and probably buy a new set or three at some point down the road

    They work fine lol. I use a different set now but I like using them when I don't need much support or for oly lifts
