We have all experienced tender or ripped hands from a tough workout. Some wear those rips like a badge of honor or a right of passage. I am here to tell you those days have past. The skill work for your kipping movements takes a toll on your hands. You work hard on mastering the gymnastics skills or training to compete in your next event and the last thing you need is torn hands. Maybe you are trying to get your ring muscle-ups and using a false grip is leaving the side of your wrists raw which is impeding your training.
Most of us have have tried other grips and found they bunch up or the material is too thick and stiff, and they don’t last very long. Women usually have trouble finding a good fit because other grips seem too big. You want something that is going to last, protect your hands and help your grip be stronger. Victory Grips have you covered. They understand your issues and have purposely designed grips to address them.
Victory Grips are made from soft leather that is not too thick or too thin. They also offer both male and female sizes to ensure you have the proper fit. They will help you grip the bar with greater efficiency reducing fatigue and the need to re-grip, as well as work seamlessly between transitions to the rings, pull-up bar, and barbell. Personally, I forget I have them on most times!
Here at CrossFit Zanshin we only carry and promote the best products for our members and I am excited to announce we will soon be carrying Victory Grips in our retail store. Also, on July 23rd the guys from Victory Grips will be onsite teaching a gymnastics clinic. This will be an awesome opportunity to refine your skills and maybe even learn some new tricks from the pros! More detail on this clinic will be on our event page. http://www.crossfitzanshin.com/upcoming-events/Train Smarter!
