Yenegh Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 I am going for http://www.newgrip.com/womens_bodybuilding.htmlsweaty hands so need to vent... What do you use and why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamfatboy Posted February 18, 2011 Report Share Posted February 18, 2011 I tried whatever I could find at Rebel.... but eventually the bunching got too irritating and I moved to straps. Depends what you're using them for - sweaty palms or wrist reinforcement (some have a strong/thick band around the wrist to help that area).Oh, and chalk helps with sweaty hands too.... come to the Dark (powerlifting) side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riccardo Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Why do you wanna wear gloves? Calluses are manly. gloves make you look like a douche bag who is more concerned with preserving his baby soft skin than actually lifting weights.

Riccardo Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Just realized OP was a girl lol, but still I recommend against gloves if you are serious about lifting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gym rat Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Versa grips they are heaps better then using gloves and since I have been using them they are good value for money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cantygirl Posted February 19, 2011 Report Share Posted February 19, 2011 Gloves are good, I think also girls have weaker forearm extensors and flexors when first starting out training. The over gripping of bars can cause serious soreness to your forearms plus who the hell wants big barnacles on your palms!!!! Ive got some Nike ones with a cut out for air on the top of the glove, they are great except medium was damn small and initially I couldn't get them on and off easily, id recommend trying them on in the shop first.

severe Posted February 20, 2011 Report Share Posted February 20, 2011 If I dont have gloves I wipe down the sweat the last douche left, using the wipes at the gym. Dirty, filthy, sweaty bastards. :pfft: If I use gloves I wipe them hard when I am finished. Never cared for the name calling. Don't really matter what others think, as long as my OCD is kept happy.They never stopped callouses anyways... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkmanx Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 Fukit, i dont care what you call me, but gloves, belts, straps, wraps, bodysuits and the list goes on. All have their place in bodybuilding, powerlifting, powerbuilding and the list goes on again.Jokes or no jokes, i think it's ignorant calling people names for their preferance of gym accesories. It shows no class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
