LEWIN's VOLT Kit
Similar to Philroy, coming from the same programme, Lewin likes to alternate between the HyperGrip+ V2 for training and the UltraGrip+ V2 for competitions. Although the UltraGrip+ V2 will always be his favourite. He is also a big fan of the 5mm ProFlex Knee Sleeves, using them not only in workouts but for lifting too, providing comfort and support without feeling restrictive.
