Neoprene Wrist Cuffs Neo Grip - Black

Neoprene Wrist Cuffs – Support Without the Wrapping

The Neo Grip wrist cuffs from Gym Generation are wrist supports in 5 to 6 mm neoprene that you put on in seconds: cuff around the wrist, Velcro band through the metal ring, pull tight. No wrapping, no technique to learn, no time lost between sets. The neoprene puts an even compression around the joint and holds it in position on bench press, shoulder press, dumbbells and kettlebells. More compact than a 25 cm wrap and far less bulky. One size, sold as a pair, for men and women.

Wrist support for strength training, bodybuilding and functional work – anywhere the joint gets pushed out of line under load. Developed by Gym Generation, a Swiss brand for training and strength gear since 2013.

No Winding, No Counting Turns

Here is the difference to a classic wrap: there is nothing to wind. You put the cuff around the wrist, feed the Velcro band through the metal ring and pull it tight. Done. No technique to learn first, and just as quick to release after the set. On supersets and frequent exercise changes that saves a few seconds every time – and the fit is the same every time you put it on.

5 to 6 mm Neoprene, Even Compression

The neoprene runs around 5 to 6 mm thick and puts steady pressure around the whole joint rather than a single tight band at one point. It sits close without constricting and keeps the joint slightly warm through the session. The Velcro is where you set the firmness, from light support to tight.

Flat Enough to Wear Under a Sleeve

Because the cuff is short rather than 25 cm wound around the forearm, it takes up far less room. It disappears under a hoodie sleeve, does not get in the way when you bend the wrist, and packs flat in the gym bag – support without half your forearm in fabric.

Neoprene Wrist Cuffs – Frequently Asked Questions

Cuff or wrap – which should I take?
Both support the wrist, in different ways. The cuff is faster to put on, sits the same every time and takes up less room, but the level of support is capped by the build. A 25 cm wrap can be pulled tighter and gives more on very heavy singles, but it takes practice and time. Train daily and change exercises a lot, take the cuff; want maximum support for heavy pressing, take the wrap.

What is the metal ring for?
You feed the Velcro band back through the ring before you pull it tight. That redirects the pull, so one hand can put noticeably more tension on the cuff than simply pressing the Velcro down would. It also holds more securely under load.

How firm does it sit?
You set that through the Velcro, from light support to firm. It should be noticeable without the hand tingling or going cold. For competition maxes in powerlifting a tightly wound wrap is the stronger option.

Is it worth wearing for general training?
On pressing work, yes. It keeps the wrist in a more stable position when it gets pushed out of line under load, which gives you more control on bench press, shoulder press and dumbbell work. Light sets and warm-ups do not need it. If you already have wrist pain, speak to a doctor or physiotherapist rather than covering it up with a cuff.

How do I clean them?
Wipe clean or cold hand wash, then air dry – not in the tumble dryer and not on a radiator. That keeps the neoprene elastic and the Velcro grippy. Air them out between sessions.
