The BarBend Figure 8 Lifting Straps are the most secure straps on the market for deadlifts and heavy pulls.

These straps provide MAXIMUM security with a double-loop design — and reinforced center — preferred by top pro strongman competitors. Includes extra wrist padding for maximum comfort and great feel.

Never Let Grip Fail You! Strongman style deadlifts, heavy pulls, farmer's walks: These straps can take your training up a notch when normal grip fails.
The BarBend Figure 8 Lifting Straps are stitched — and restitched — with high-grade material that can support more weight than the average lifting strap.

Each strap is built with a reinforced center. The crossover point in the figure 8 design supports the heaviest weight, so we've reinforced this with extra stitching and material. You can even lift thumbless!
Unlike other figure 8 designs, our one-size-fits-all deadlift straps feature an additional stitched padded liner to help protect your wrists and hands during heavy movements.

The padding provides exceptional feel without compromising durability or the integrity of the figure 8 design.

Extra-sticky with a 2-inch width, BarBend's Kinesiology Tape features a specially-designed adhesive that keeps the tape attached to your skin along its full length and width.

Don't like itchy tape? Neither do we. That's why BarBend's tape is woven for maximum durability AND comfort.

Our tape features a 2-way stretch and adhesive patterning, along with a woven design that mimics movement with your skin. The tape can stretch up to 180% of its original length, providing adjustable feedback along the skin and fascia.
We'll cut to the chase: No fidgeting, no curling, our premium kinesiology tape is designed to stay snug to your skin through practically any movement.

BarBend's Kinesiology Tape resists water and sweat to reduce the chance of peeling. Because that's the last thing you want to worry about during training!
With BarBend Kinesiology Tape, you get MORE. Each roll comes with nearly 25 feet of tape — 10 feet more than most competitors — so you don't have to miss any spots that need a little extra support.
