Sizing Up Your Redback Grips

Redback Grips have become a staple for many athletes, offering durability, comfort, and protection. However, finding the perfect size is crucial not only for performance but also for safety. 

When it comes to grips, more isn't always better. Oversized grips means excess material that may get caught on itself or other equipment during rig movements or barbell cycling. This not only interferes with your performance but also poses a risk of injury. Redback Grips are designed to enhance your training experience by offering protection while allowing for natural hand movement, therefore choosing the correct size ensures optimal comfort and functionality, enabling you to focus on your workout without distractions or discomfort. 

 Guidelines for Sizing Your Redback Grips:

Measure Hand Length: Start by measuring the length of your hand from the base of your palm to the tip of your middle finger. This measurement serves as a reliable indicator of the size of grips you'll need. Avoid the temptation to size up. Pay attention to where the top of the grips align with your hand. Ideally, they should not extend past your first knuckle when your fingers are fully extended. Grips that are too long can impede your range of motion and compromise your grip strength, so by keeping the top of the grips in line with your first knuckle, you ensure optimal control and comfort and avoid discomfort or injury. 

Consider Grip Style: Redback Grips come in two main styles: three-finger and fingerless. Consider your preference and the type of movements you'll be performing when choosing the style that suits you best. Remember that proper sizing is critical regardless of the grip style you choose.

Conclusion:
In the pursuit of excellence in CrossFit, every detail matters, including the fit of your gear. Redback Grips offer unparalleled protection and support, but achieving the perfect fit is essential for safety and performance. By prioritising accuracy over sizing, you can enjoy the benefits of Redback Grips without compromising on comfort or risking injury
