I know that some people use wraps with their HWD and LWD so they can practice more without destroying the hands. Are there any videos or photos that show how to do it? I suck at both those events, and I need to practice A LOT. ------------- Josh Plumb I may not be good, but I'm consistent |

thanks. I'm assuming you don't do this on LWD. It doesn't seem it would be needed ------------- Josh Plumb I may not be good, but I'm consistent |

No I wrap both weights. You can rip a callus in light weight just as easy as heavy. ------------- "Breathe deeply. Refuse to be weak. Refuse to be sick. Refuse to die. Think strong and you will be." -The Mighty Atom (Yoselle Greenstein) |

I would use OLY straps, like the IRONMIND "So easy straps". They release much easier http://www.ironmind-store.com/Sew-Easy-Lifting-Straps153/productinfo/1437/

^This, and always use a glove if you're going to use a strap.
I prefer the ironmind regular straps, but that's me.
