I have been a trainer for a little over a year and recently purchased this item to use in my weight lifting program! I loge using this strap for when I go on the heavy side of lifting. I know some will say that it takes away from strengthening the wrist and forearms. But this is only for the heavy lifting days for deadlift, shoulder shrugs, and other exercises. I for one love this equipment just for that.....

I was always limited in what I could dead lift because of my weak hands. I put these babies on and immediately upped the weight from 150 to 200 pounds.

Great hooks! Perfect for going heavier. Love my hooks! So happy to have found something at also helps my tendinitis.

The Schiek Power lifting hooks arrived in perfect condition. I have never used any kind of hooks before. However, these are heavy and seems very durable. They fit perfectly. I used them for pull ups and I can do more pull ups without my grip failing. My form is better so I see better results. I defintely recommend these.

I've had my lifting hooks for about a month now and I could'nt be happier with them. They are worth the extra money. They are very well constructed and comfortable. The best part about these lifting hooks is the range of motion. The one large single hook design allows for it to move with you as you do say a low row or a lat pull. The twin hook design lifting hooks I've tried prior to these did not allow for such range of motion, and the two hooks made for an awkword feel due to trying to place your fingers around the two hooks. The one large hook design cuts that out completly. The paded wrist straps are a nice touch as well. I've tried the straps and other types of lifting hooks and by far these are the best. I highly recommend them. The only improvement that could be made to these is the same with all the hooks I've tried, and that would be to make the hooks or hook in this case about a quarter of an inch deeper to help cut out the worry and occasional slippage of the hook or hooks off of the bar, barbell, or handle that you are using. Pulling that hard on something that heavy and having it attract everyones attention when it crashes and you practically do a back flip is not cool, but I digress. These hooks are awesome and I will buy more once I wear these out

I've not had any issues with them at all. Having tennis elbow and virtually no grip strength, these have allowed me to continue training my back in various exercises. works great!
