I used to use these and realized my grip strength was suffering because I wasn't ever using my actual grip. Now I use just chalk and my grip strength is able to pull 500+lb without straps. To each their own but imo, these straps hold people back from building grip strength.

I used to have the same issue, but later ended up using straps more often than not -- for example, pullups with bare hands, then Pendlay rows with straps. It helps me finish my sets more completely without completely fatiguing my hands, etc. It also lets me work around elbow tendonitis a little more easily. Good to have in the bag, but not a crutch.
Ok, I've seen people mention front squats and bench press now, and I'm struggling. These are made for pulling, I've used them for almost 30 years and never tried FS or BP (in fact, I spin them around and let them dangle for those movements). What's the trick?
Or are people confusing them with wrist wraps (for stability)?
