Thick-grip training is a proven concept lifters and strength coaches have built decades of bigger arms on. The Sniperform LevelUp Performance Grip is a premium 50 mm engineered thick grip that turns any standard barbell, dumbbell or cable handle into a forearm, bicep and grip-stabiliser builder from the very first rep.
Engineered grip diameter, designed to load forearm through to shoulder
The diameter of a standard 28mm barbell, fully engaging forearm and grip
Universal fit on any 28–32mm Olympic bar, dumbbell or cable handle
30-day money-back guarantee on every pair, no questions asked
Thicker handles drive harder forearm, bicep and grip activation — that's why dedicated thick-grip training has been a staple of strength coaches and bodybuilders for decades. The Sniperform LevelUp Grip is built around that one job: turning every set you already do into a serious arm builder.
A standard 28mm bar barely engages your forearms or grip stabilisers — the load bypasses your lower arm and goes straight to the larger movers. Forcing your hand to clamp a 50mm engineered diameter recruits the forearm, bicep and grip from the very first rep. This is the mechanism thick-grip training has been built on for decades, now executed in a premium engineered grip.
Because the grip thickness comes with you, the same lifts you already program — barbell curls, rows, pulldowns, hammer holds, axle-style pressing — start hitting the forearm and bicep significantly harder. You don't need new exercises. You need a thicker bar, on the bar you already use.
Sized for any standard 28–32mm Olympic barbell, dumbbell handle and most cable attachments. The quick-lock mount slides on and locks in seconds. Built from a high-density engineered compound that holds its diameter under heavy load and won't flatten or peel like cheap rubber sleeves.
The primary job of the LevelUp Grip is arm building. As a bonus, we engineered a second utility into one of the two grips: a precision spirit level inset into the side. Clip that grip onto the centre of your barbell during bench press and the bubble gives you instant visual feedback on whether the bar is travelling level through the press, or whether one side is racing the lockout.
It's a useful bench-press diagnostic, not the reason to buy. Even with the level removed from the equation, the grip still does what every Sniperform thick grip does: build forearms, biceps and grip strength.
50mm thick-grip, every lift.
Bubble level on barbell bench press only.
Slide the LevelUp Grip onto any standard 28–32mm Olympic barbell, dumbbell or cable handle. Quick-lock mount, locks in seconds, no tools.
Run your usual press, row, curl, hammer hold or pulldown. The 50mm diameter forces the forearm and bicep to clamp and stabilise on every rep.
Feel the pump in places a thin bar never reached. Train consistently with thick grips and the forearm and bicep development follows.
Generic fat grips proved the category — that thicker handles build bigger arms. The LevelUp Grip was engineered to do that job at a premium tier, with a bonus utility no commodity sleeve offers.

Arm building. Thick-grip training drives harder forearm, bicep and grip activation than a standard 28mm bar — that's the entire reason the category exists. The LevelUp Grip executes that mechanism in a premium engineered form factor.
Engineered diameter and material that holds its shape under load, a quick-lock mount that locks in seconds without tools, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. Plus the bonus bubble level on one of the grips, which no commodity sleeve offers.
One grip in the pair has a precision spirit level inset into its side. Clip that grip onto the centre of your barbell, set up your bench press, and the bubble shows whether the bar is travelling level through the press or whether one side is locking out faster. It is a bench-press diagnostic only, not the main reason to buy the product.
Yes. The LevelUp Grip is sized for any standard 28–32mm Olympic barbell, dumbbell handle or compatible cable attachment. Anywhere you grip a bar in that range, the grip works.
