d0wn1 Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 Do you use them? If so, what kind do you use? And where can I find a decent pair? Thanks in advanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ovrdose Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 i've never used them, tried a friend's one time, they make me feel really disconnected from the weights. i just feel more into it when im actually holding the bar. i use wriststraps for heavy back stuff (pulling) and shrugs, but aside from that i don't really think you'd need them anyway. but i do see quite a few people at the gym rocking them so i guess it's all preference.

howardstone Posted April 7 Report Share Posted April 7 I have no need for gloves, over the years from masterbating so much I have established very tough calus's on my hands that give me the perfect grip I need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmg Posted April 12 Report Share Posted April 12 Never got into gloves. Just dont like the feeling. I used to use straps alot a few years ago but found myself relying on them too much. Now i either use nothing or just use wrist wraps/suports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L46183 Posted May 13 Report Share Posted May 13 gloves feel weird, i dont use anything but the closest thing in between the two is something that looks like a rubber pad its pretty thin and it doesnt get in the waywhy do you want to use gloves? the calus' ? try using skin lotion (vitamin e) over them if u want them to go away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2kool4school Posted May 14 Report Share Posted May 14 hahahhaI still do not wear them , chicks wear glovesWhat happens when a guy wears gloves and then forgets them one day? Can he still work out without them? Will he have to go home for fear of calluses on his baby soft hands? LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambitrah Posted May 16 Report Share Posted May 16 ive never used gloves..i figure a little roughness on the hands wont kill me. I was able to deadlift 300lbs last week w/o gloves or straps so i should be good for a bit..altho the only way i could get that rep was over\under sumo style..but i cleared it..once lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentplaya1 Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 I guess I'm the only one that uses gloves. No callouses, better grip, and I dont have to worry about germs. Call me crazy but I like em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prplhz Posted May 17 Report Share Posted May 17 ok...i was really not understanding that statement...and ur right...only chicks wear gloves... I use them because I don't want to fuck up my engagement ring, and I kind of like using them as I don't have caleses(sp) on my palms anymore. I use Nike gloves, with leather on the palms. It's different for everyone though, it's just my preference. howienewport 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2kool4school Posted May 23 Report Share Posted May 23 I see guys in my gym wearing gloves on the days when they train legs. What's up with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polcat Posted May 23 Report Share Posted May 23 i sweat profusely. With sweaty palms, i'd rather be safe than sorry, and use proper glovers for better grip. there's nothing 'macho' in barehand workouts. It's simple, if u need them, use them! i use kettler's, with leather insets. it grips better and helps in eliminating sweat. Be smart, use em if u need em.

dirtyepic18 Posted May 24 Report Share Posted May 24 i wear gloves when lifting... Harbinger makes some good ones.i dont know why the fuck people think gloves are so pussy, i need them otherwise i start to lose grip on the bar by the time i get to my last reps. lifted for years without them, and never cared about having rough hands, but i've found that when you put on gloves and get that better grip, you feel more as if you have the weight totally under your control.
