Ouchieee My Hands Hurt

[CrystalChick]

Hi Ladies just wondering if you could recomend a good set of weight gloves.
I wore out my last pair so I have not been usuing them.
I have some baby calliouses that are really starting to hurt when they rub against the bars and stuff.

Thanks CC

I use a fingerless mechanics glove and love them. Snap-on tool dealers carry them or you can check an auto parts store. I don't think you can wear them out.

Lots of ppl think only wussies wear gloves & all you need is a bit of chalk. Well, I've felt the hands of my friend who rows competitively & lifts a lot -never wearing gloves, & it is NOT sexy!

I have a pair by Harbinger - DO NOT buy that brand! they stink. WAY too thin padding. I still get some baby calluses. My hands also slide around within them (even though they're not too big) when I do push-ups. They started to fray on the pinky too the first week. Gotta get another pair, I'm thinking anything must be better.

Just suck it up.

Wussies wear gloves for lifting.

Hey - screw you people. I am a wus and proud of it!!!!!!!!!
Actually I am a sculptor and callouses put dents in the clay where I don't want them so I have a financial interest in wearing gloves (how was that for a creative excuse).

The reason I wear gloves is not because I'm not tough enough (anyone who reads the sheets knows that this lady is NOT afraid of pain!)

I wear them because I want my hands to be soft. Seriously, the touch of a rough hand on tender areas is NOT PLEASANT.

My biceps, quads, & ass should be rock hard, but my hands, face, & hair should be soft & smooth. I know I'm not alone in that desire. I don't think it has anything to do with being tough.

Perhaps you should stop using your hands...

Yeah...and she wonders why her nails grow so fast

Perhaps you should stop using your hands...

Oooh, no, but I want to use my hands WHILE I'm using all sorts of other things!

TheProject and I frequently hold up our cracked, chalky, squished up hands after deadlifts and compare callous size. I WIN!

Nothing like having a hot sexy female give u a full body massage and feel those scratchy man craters on her hands..
