One of the essential pieces of equipment for any weightlifter is a pair of gym wrist wraps. Ever asked yourself why they put those annoying thumb loops on wrist wraps? Yea, we don't know either! Did you know having the thumb loop on will disqualify your lift at a sanctioned powerlifting meet?
We got rid of the thumb loops and developed a unique system with our Villain Wrist Wraps called the "Belt Loop Tightening System." This system allows you to control how secure you want your wrist wraps and makes working out much more enjoyable. With the right wrist wraps and proper form, you can minimize your risk of injury and maximize your training results.
Wrist wraps support your wrists and help keep them in a neutral position, thus maximizing your power through each lift. This allows you to lift heavier and target specific muscle groups more effectively.
Villain Wrist Wraps are made of a high-quality fabric woven in a proprietary pattern that provides the ultimate wrist support and stability during weightlifting. They come in various lengths, including 16-inch, 24-inch, and 30-inch. The longer the wrist wrap, the more support they will provide, but they will be bulkier to wear, so there is a tradeoff.
When bench pressing, your wrists are subjected to a lot of stress and strain. One of the most critical functions of a wrist wrap is to limit wrist extension, thus providing you with maximum power output through the lift. Too much wrist extension can cause pain, discomfort, and even injury if you're not careful. Villain Wrist Wraps help distribute that stress evenly across your wrist, providing support and reducing the risk of injury.

Q: How do I clean my wrist wraps?
We recommend using a light detergent and letting them soak in the sink for an hour or so. Add baking soda to help get rid of any smells. Air dry, and leave them out to air dry. DO NOT put in washing machine or dryer.
Q: Why do I need wrist wraps?
Wrist Wraps help to protect your wrists when lifting. They also allow you to lift more weight by keeping your wrist in a neutral position.
Q: When should you wear wrist wraps?
Wrist wraps are great to wear when you bench press, overhead movements, shoulder press, clean and jerk, and other push movements.
Q: How do I know if my wrist wraps are tight enough?
If your wrist wraps are spinning on your wrist, then they are too loose. If your hands are black and blue or you have numb fingers, the wrist wraps are too tight.
