For buying I decided because they were at Amazon to offer, if I remember correctly, 20th
Short read the instructions on the manufacturer's Web site, use the free "training plans" (you can download as pdf) did not interest me particularly and have not been tested.
The attachment to and removal of dumbbells or barbells is simple and fast (not seen in the picture are the Gripz lengthwise cut at one point and are simply pulled over the bar). If one considers that the gap is oriented to the direction of pull Gripz I can not imagine that they dissolve unintentionally me.
For Fat Gripz I can say that they
1) the forearms more demanding than the dumbbells or barbell alone
2) I personally better than a strenuous grip procure (1,97m and correspondingly large hands UBD Loange finger)
3) they were not unpleasant or impaired even at -5 ° C out of the car (where they had to wait all day)
and most important to me:
4) I have after exercise, especially after pull-ups or pull other exercises, no more pain in the brachioradialis.
Personally, I can only express a full purchase recommendation when you consider zuzulegen these parts. Whether you are an absolute must and can I will not answer.
