Adidas Judo Fitness Tube – The Tube

The Adidas Judo Fitness Tube – The Tube is a specialised grip training aid designed for judo, BJJ and other gi-based martial arts. It helps athletes develop the kind of specific grip strength that is essential for controlling an opponent, maintaining sleeve grips and improving pulling power in training and competition.

Made from durable 100% cotton judo gi fabric, The Tube imitates the feel of a judo gi sleeve or BJJ uniform grip, making it far more sport-specific than standard gym handles. This makes it an excellent choice for athletes who want to combine traditional strength training with realistic judo or BJJ grip work.

The centre of the tube features a leather-reinforced eyelet for improved durability. It can be attached to Olympic barbells, cable machines, pull towers and other strength training equipment, allowing you to perform a wide range of pulling exercises under a grip load similar to gripping a gi sleeve.

Use it for exercises such as rows, lat pulldowns, pulling drills and upper-body strength work to build stronger forearms, better grip endurance and more control in gi fighting situations. It is a simple but highly effective training accessory for serious judo and BJJ athletes training in the gym, dojo or at home.

The Tube is also easy to wash, durable enough for regular use and a smart addition to any strength and conditioning programme for grapplers.
