FAQs
Everything you ever wanted to ask about Versa Gripps.
1. What are Versa Gripps and how are they different from lifting straps or gloves?
Versa Gripps are advanced lifting grips that combine the benefits of hooks, straps, wrist wraps and gloves into one tool. They let you “lock in” faster, transition between push and pull movements without re-wrapping, and reduce strain on your forearms while protecting your palms.
2. Which Versa Gripps series should I choose: Classic, Pro, FitPro or Xtreme?
It depends on your frequency, lifting intensity and comfort preferences. LOBOCKI allows you to search Versa Gripps by series, compare features side by side, and view photos of each variant in use so you can select with confidence. We also give sizing and use recommendations in each listing.
3. How do I size and wear Versa Gripps correctly for maximum performance?
- Sizing: Versa Gripps come in multiple wrist sizes (e.g. extra small, small, regular/large) to ensure a snug fit.
- Wearing / using: Slide the grip onto your wrist, wrap the palm portion around the bar, and “lock in” your grip. Unlike straps, you don’t have to wrap around multiple times — the grip mechanism helps secure the bar.
- Practice with lighter loads first to find your optimal positioning and feel.
We provide clear size charts, step-by-step use instructions and demo images/videos (or links) in each product’s description so you know exactly how to use your Versa Gripps effectively.
4. Are Versa Gripps allowed in competitions (powerlifting, Olympic lifting)?
Generally, Versa Gripps are not permitted in Olympic lifting competitions (snatch, clean & jerk) as they are considered an assist device.
In powerlifting, permission depends on the governing federation; many only allow straps or bare hands in official lifts. Always check your specific federation’s rules (e.g. IPF, USAPL).
5. How do I care for and maintain my Versa Gripps to extend lifespan?
- Rinse or hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid bleach or harsh detergents.
- Air dry flat — do not tumble dry or leave in direct sun for long periods.
- Regularly inspect for any loose stitching, wear or fraying.
- Rotate grips if you train heavily, and avoid overextending or overstressing them.
