I got some wrist wraps, which ive never used before,however I didn’t realize that they didn’t have thumb loops. So how do I wrap these? They look like larger wrist straps with a loop on one end.
Thanks
lay one corner on the heal of your thumb (the meaty part) with the wrap at a slight angle downward, squeeze it tight with your fingers, and pull the wrap around your wrist. It will hold itself in place after that. The tab sticking out is no more aggravating than the thumb loop anyway.
So what is the reason for the loop in them?
The loop anchors the wrap so you can pull it tight.
I was tempted to cut my thumb loops off after I had a bench turned down in competition for having them on during the lift. Lots of people cut their thumb loops off actually, for that very reason.
These have a large loop though, it’s the wrap itself. And do you wrap them and put the end through the loop, because I can’t get them to stay put otherwise, and these is no Velcro on them either
im really confused I have never seen these before… Pic? or atleast the name of them.
You put your hand through the loop, wrap the strap around the bar several times with the strap going under the bar and then back towards you, then roll the bar towards you. This will tighten the strap.

i think its WRAP not STRAP
Sounds like you have lifting straps, not wrist wraps. See the video posted above.

When choosing a wrist STRAP, there are a number of important qualities. First off, it needs to be durableâ??with heavy webbing and serious stitching. The Yellow Jacket has both.- This the very next paragraph from the EXACT link YOU posted…

That is what he is using but, he is trying to use them as wrist wraps and not wrist straps. He know how to use straps already he just thought he had wrist wraps and has been taking the straps and wrapping around his wrists for support.
