gloves and grip strength

[ZGzaZ]

Does wearing gloves take away from helping your grip get stronger? Should i ditch em?

I think they do hinder your grip a little, but mainly it is an ego issue...I have one therefore I don't have gloves...lol

I think the gloves I use actually help my grip.

 

[ZGzaZ]

they help my grip too, but im wondering how my grip is while they are off...i think i'll go without em for a while and see what happens...

i think gloves help your grip stay where its at, but wearing gloves makes it so your grip doesnt get stronger. i wore gloves for a long time and i couldnt hold the weight i used for shrugs, so i took the gloves off and havent used em since and my grip has gotten a lot stronger.

What kind of gloves are we talking here? Just regular leather gloves that prevent your skin from chaffing or specialized gloves...Man I've been using gloves for the longest time because I'd bleed on the bar but if it's taking away from my grip...
