Gloves while training? - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Just a quick poll as i was interested in how may of you wear gloves when training.

I currently dont but i think my blistered hands are starting to effect my lifts so considering getting some gloves

none for me

RAIKEY · 28-06-2006, 06:00 PM

no never ....

cant feel the equipment properly .....

i think for most they can become a sort of comfort blanket,.....

ladies are different tho,..they have to keep the hands soft for reasons i shalt elaborate on eh??

Always, can't stand rough skin. That, plus I have to do meetings with a lot of my boss's bosses, and those suits would get a bit suspicious shaking hands with someone whose hands indicated he'd been working on a building site before he got there...

Agree with Raikes though, makes it harder to "feel" the equipment.

I dont use gloves ... They just feel ... Out of place to me ? I can't feel the bar, it just doesn't feel right ...

I'll use chalk, though. It gets pretty sweaty sometimes, and the chalk helps me to keep my grip.

i get those hard lil round white fings form on my palm nearer my fingers :S duno wot they're called but really annoying and i jus picked at them all dey until i bought some york gloves.. think i need sumthink for d/bell squatting tho becos wen i get to about 8reps my hands start to hurt from holding the heavy weight.

LondonGeezer · 28-06-2006, 09:43 PM

I think you're referring to Callouses there, Bro !

Personally, I prefer the rough hands I've got

... Makes me feel all masculine.
