Primal Elite Wrist Wraps + Lifting Wraps Bundle (2 Pairs) - Professional Grade Protection for Weightlifting, Crossfit, Workout, Gym, Powerlifting, Bodybuilding

May 8, 2016Disclosure: I received Primal Elite Wrist Wraps + Lifting Wraps Bundle (2 Pairs) - Professional Grade Protection for Weightlifting, Crossfit, Workout, Gym, Powerlifting, Bodybuilding for free, in exchange for a fair and HONEST review. Also note that, because he's currently the one with access to Amazon Prime, at the moment, I ordered this product through my husband's account.-----Why I Ordered This Product: 1) I like to game on my PC, a lot. Unfortunately, that results in some serious wrist issues. I have a couple of carpal tunnel gloves, but they have a tendency to really limit my hand movements, which I rely on, to get anything done, whether it be gaming, writing, sewing, etc. I needed a better alternative, something that will support my wrists and keep them safe, yet allow me to do what I need to do. 2) I'm in no way a fitness junkie. In fact, I don't like exercise, to be honest. However, I'm trying to make an effort at being healthy. Part of that involves exercising. While my physical therapy exercises are no problem, the gentle, adaptive yoga I try to do at home can be a bit of a challenge, especially the ones that require me to put weight on my hands and wrists. In addition to the wrist issues I have from gaming, I have an old, old injury from back when I was a child. I'd been roller skating at the local rink and went a bit too fast, running into a wall. I stopped myself from really getting hurt by putting out my hands. My right hand took the brunt of the impact, bending it back at the wrist at a painful angle. Since then, my right wrist has always had issues, though it's gotten a bit better, over the years. However, I still find myself unable to support myself on that hand, very well. So, I wanted to be able to have something to shore up the weak wrist, as well as to protect it, further, from injury. 3) Cosplay. Yes. I love to cosplay. And I have created my own character that tends towards being something of an unarmed brawler, more than anything else, and I wanted something to help convey that. Wrist wraps seemed like a good candidate for my needs.-----What I'm Looking For, In Products, Like This: The wraps should fit comfortably enough that it gives my wrists the support and protection they need, without cutting off my circulation. Since I aim to use these when I'm at the computer, they should also give my wrists good, solid support without restricting the movements of my hands to where I have to take them off, just to get any work done. Finally, they should look really, really good on me. If they're going to be a part of my cosplay, I expect them to add an extra bit of flair to the whole setup. And, as with many of the things I order, I want the product to be strong and durable, capable of standing up to constant use, while being easy to clean.-----How This Product Measures Up To My Expectations: When I initially ordered this product, I thought I was getting two sets of wristbands. When re-read the description, after the order was made, I was actually intrigued. While I don't see myself doing a lot of heavy weight training, I can see how this would be helpful with just carrying things that require a really good grip. These look like handy things to have around, is what I'm saying. However, the primary reason I ordered this product was for the wrist wraps, so my evaluation of the product is focused on those. As far as the quality of the wraps go (as well as of the lifting straps, too, to be honest), I have to say that I am definitely impressed. The fabric feels really thick and durable, the stitching is good, and the orientation of the Velcro on the straps makes sense (the part of the Velcro that does the gripping isn't exposed so that it's constantly grabbing at anything that comes its way). Putting them on, the straps seem to provide the same kind of support to my wrists that my carpel tunnel gloves do, without restricting the movement of my hands. And they're relatively comfortable, feeling supportive without cutting off the circulation in my wrists. In fact, I'm typing with the wrist wraps on, right now, without any real issues or complaints. They do quite a fine job of keeping my wrists supported, during those exercises where I need such support. And, of course, I actually like how they look on me. They'll go, just fine, with my cosplay outfits.-----Final Rating: These wraps do everything I wanted them to do, and they came with a bonus set of lifting straps. They won't collect dust in a drawer, somewhere, because I'll be using this, often. As such, I can't find any reason to give this product five stars out of five. I really like them.-----Summary (Pros):1) Keeps my wrists supported while I work at the computer, without restricting my hand movements.2) Keeps my wrists supported while doing exercises that require me to support my weight on my hands and wrists.3) The wraps are relatively comfortable, giving me support without cutting off my circulation.4) I like how they look with my cosplay outfits.Summary (Cons):1) So far, none that I can see.

I purchased these for my nephew he's in the gym 4 hours a day and he said they work fantastic

Good product, they will get the job done.Just to compare: I have a pair of Harbinger wrist wraps and the difference is noticeable. The Harbinger pair is more comfortable.I mainly bought this for the straps.

Price was great, that was about it.. very stiff and uncomfortable. and the pulling straps didn't cinch up tight enough for me.

Straps seemed very sturdy and of great quality on both itemsReturned because color was too dark for my taste, but will purchase a different color.

Good wrist wraps stiff enough to support but not to stiff

Sturdy, comfortable and take the pressure off of my wrists - they do what they're supposed to. Weight and reps have increased substantially while using. Great product

Great!!!
