Haven't you ever heard it's better to give than to receive.

Nope...no need to bring paperwork into it. No complaints here

I've got 3 pairs that I rotate around w/ depending on what muscle group it is. I prefer extra pad for chest day, something that my straps will fit around on back day and leg day I just need something so I dont' slip when I'm leveraging myself in & out of some of those wild leg machines. I also like something that can survive the washer since they get extra funky after a few weeks. (I'm one of those chicks who *sweats*, not "glows", in the gym...)

I used to be part of the "good ol' boys club" where we would compare callouses at the end of every month. Most of the guys would wear gloves, but it was sort of a "bigger dick" thing to have the most ripped out gloves. I'm proud to say that based on the condition of my gloves & my hands I was sporting a VERY nice "package".

BUT, now that I'm a member of professional society, the callous look doesn't make a big impression when I'm shaking hands w/ the CEO, so I opt for rotating gloves. I'll let my 15" biceps do the "bigger dick" talking for me ;c)

wow, there was just way too much dick talk in that post sassy

 

[Sassy69]

When "dick" talks, people listen

And no one makes comments about me trying to make up for "other short comings"....

If you were going to wear gloves...I would suggest some that were very tight and thin...almost just like a second layer of skin. (ouch, that hurt to even talk about gloves).

Night Fly does not have super soft hands, neither does Jill Mills...not even close. I love it. Both of those ladies love weights...BIG weights and you are not going to be using BIG weights while you wear gloves.

My hands look nice and rough...

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 wife seems to disagree with you. No complaints in more than 20 years.

I am proud of my callouses! But I do use Harbinger gloves for pressing movements, especially bench press. The bar pushing on my hands makes them ache so I appreciate even a little bit of cushioning on the palms. I've had my Harbingers for quite a while and really like them, no problems.

I bought the Harbinger gloves this weekend and what a difference my hands and I say "Thank You" for the recomendations.
