Sorry if this isnt the right place for this topic, i didnt know where to post it :(

Well i just bought the weight lifting thing that is attached to ur wrist and SUPPOSE to wrap around the weight bar BUT... - I GOT THE WRONG ONE!!....

the one i bought, you tighten it at the wrist but the gripping part, its jus some steel hook sticking out. Called "Weight lifting hooks?"
i have no idea but would the regular weight lifting gripp wrap around thing be much better then this Weight Lifting Hook?
And what is that called? i forgot :(

heres a picture of the lifting hook i bought...

THIS IS ALSO 20$ , WTF!!

Lifting straps?

I'd personally stick to lifting straps made out of canvas and maybe some wrist padding. Having my grip totally supported by something other than my hand seems like cheating to me. Plus, I want a good forearm workout, as well.

Like BIgRon and Jay??? I don't have them, but I think your foreams should be more relaxed than without them.
