In Response To: what gear for a first timer (MAGNUS)

Titan makes the best gear, no doubt. That is why the vast majority of USAPL/IPF lifters are wearing it.

I reccommend the following:
Centurion squat suit for squats and deads.
F6 for bench.
Order with your true measurements and ask for "meet fit".

Later on, once you have mastered that gear, you can either order the same gear and ask for "competition fit". Later on, you may also want to get a custom fit centurion (called a dual quad) and their thicker shirt, the katana.

As for wraps, I like the stiffer THP material, but most new lifters prefer the springier "titanium" wraps. I reccommend 24-inch wrist wraps and 2-meter knee wraps.

Good luck.

Best gear on the market.
