Are death grips actually worth it?

These guys are marketing this shit pretty aggressively now saying they're faster to put on than regular straps and better. Keep in mind they cost like $40 so ain't cheap plus looks like a gimmick to me

    As the only anon in this thread who actually bought these things. Don’t bother. They are significantly worse than straps and make you look like a gay. The moron who invented them convinced me to buy them while I was at the Arnold. I can’t believe I fell for it. They don’t take any weight off of your grip no matter how tight you strap them. Velcro shouldn’t be used on straps .

      Im not sure its meant to reduce weight anon, only demands placed on your grip?

        Straps are meant to transfer weight from grip to wrist. “Reducing demand” on the grip is the same thing as lessening the weight on the grip friend.

    Doesn't look safe. I do that SS thing where you take a strip of seatbelt nylon, fold it in half and wrap it on the bench. Takes 3 seconds.

    Just use regular ass walmart DL straps ffs it shouldn't take you more than a few seconds to put them on and the material wraps very nicely around the bar. You'd have to be really dumb to not notice any increase or benefits from using like $10 at most straps. Fitness industry is full of ridiculous gimmicks. Its just weight lifting for fricks sake god this shit isn't that complex.

    They are a copy of Versa Grips. Yes versa grips are worth it. I use them and have never felt my back until I started using them. Grip would always give out first. Now i train grip independently with actual grip workouts and both my grip and back are progressing faster. I don't know if they're better than regular straps though, still worth it.

    I don't understand the point of training to perfect lifting something you can't actually lift.
