Titan has the best wraps.

Get their Titanium Wraps, those are medium hard, with great "bounce".

The THP's are for the experienced lifter only IMO, as they are the hardest wraps from Titan.

You shouldn't use wraps then.

Just start off with a light weight, and make sure to go real deep, ass to calves.

Start off with barbell only if you have to.

I still don't feel the difference between Titan and Inzer wraps, knee or wrist.

Try the THP's.

They're hard as fcuk.

The blue Titaniums are similar to the red Inzer Ironwraps IMO, but with slightly more bounce, and just slightly, slightly harder.

I started using metal wraps. They have crazy stretch. I like the Titan red wraps but I found that the Blues were too stiff for me. I am currently only squating in the mid 400s though. I have been told I will probably want to switch to the blues once I get heavy enough.
