    • Damn velcro on my Titan Signature Gold wrist wraps came off my right wrists after the 4th rep @225 lb. THEN the velcro came off the wrist wraps on my left wrist on the 6th rep. Fought through the distractions & lack of wrist support to get a PR. This is the 2nd time the velcro on Titan wrist wraps failed me during a lift. Going to need new wraps.
