Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, position the grips comfortably against your palms before beginning your set, ensuring the material is taut and aligned with your fingers. While the grips are highly compatible with most standard gym equipment, including barbells, dumbbells, and pull-up bars, they should be kept clean to maintain their tacky texture. Wipe the grips down with a slightly damp cloth after particularly intense sessions to remove perspiration and dust. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the material over time.
