No 5 or 4 stars because
- The format does not fit (a little too short for thicker rods)
- One for heavy exercises has too little maintenance or when the hands sweat, slowly slips over a sentence more and more from (eg chin.)
- Not recommended for beginners in strength or fitness training, because you have to also pay attention during a set a bit in the right seat of the pads or realign
3 stars for:
+ Strength / thickness is, in my opinion, well, protected well against callouses, not too thick
+ Quality
Note: If you hang up heavy weights, which should also specify Wrist Wraps - eg .: Best Body Nutrition bandages wrist wraps, couple.
Conclusion: Who is practiced and his wrists protects differently, can protect his hands at a reasonable price before callus formation with these pads, but this is not in exercises such as chin-up easily..
