A few Videos of the Wrapping process..Boring, but might help someone...

How to pre-tighten wraps before your Wrap. Don't store your wraps like this. I don't do this often at all. Just to much work and if they slip while your wrapping. Your screwed.


Basic Wrap here with Quick Release Tab. Hard to see at the end. I can make a better Video. Lets you release the wraps afterwards super fast. Works best with longer stretcher wraps.


Criss Cross Wrapping. The style wrap works great with these Kratos from Strong House Project. You can get a lot of material behind the knee like this.


Last Two Videos.. Both Basic Wrapping jobs. Just a simple Spiral..

A couple of Things I always do, no matter what style wrap or wrapping job I use..

1. Always Wrap out
2. Always start my wrap under the Knee Cap and Cup around it
3. Always Pull up to tighten. Sometimes you can pull down to tighten too, just never do that over the knee cap.

You haven't had a chance to try the Sig Golds yet I see. I think you'll like them a lot when you get a pair.

I'll Grab the Sig Golds the first week in June.

I did get some Solid Red Heavy Wraps from APT. They look very close, Feel Very close, but the edge is sewn a bit different then the Slingshop Record Breakers. But a blind test ran.. Not sure if you could tell the difference.

Got a chance to us the Solid Red Super Heavy APT Wraps. They don't have much rebound. They wrap tight, but just don't give much pop out of the hole. Nothing like the Record Breakers. When the stretch they just don't snap back like some others.

Got them in last Week. Used them once, not bad. I need to break them in. I was cranking them down as hard as I could, but they really didn't feel as tight as I'm use to. I did nail 2 PR's in them first time out. So I know they can perform with some of the best wraps out.

You gotta be wrapped by someone to get them tight imo.

Finally got a Chance to use these... Like them, but are not for beginners. Very aggressive, uncomfortable but very effective.

First time out nailed a nice 30lbs PR, Used them again for some Rep work in the 2-4 range. Not my go to for reps. Chewed the crap out of the back of my knees. Ended up switching wraps to finish workout.

Takes a few good tight wraps to break these in. Once they do they stretch a bit better and form to your legs better for a much tighter feel. My first time I wrapped I couldn't get that super tight wrap feel. Few Wraps later, that wasn't an issue. Was able to get a very tight, uncomfortable, blood stopping wrap.

Get someone to really crank those sig golds and they'll leave in an utter state of agony/bliss.

And I only use them for my wrapped singles.

I got these Bad boys in today. These are from SHP and are not even released yet.

These are the most aggressive, Stiffest, Heaviest Single ply Knee Wrap that will be out. (2-3 weeks out)

These are 2ply spec's in a 1ply wrap...
Weight 22.07oz
10in Stretch Test was only 12.5in (new)

I think once broke in, It could be closer to 13.5 Max, but these will be a beast to break in. This is the wrap I would recommend for those Geared Lifters or Crazy Wide Stance Slow Squatters.
