Weight lifting gloves

[YAMAHA147]

I've never used or owned a pair in my life. I use wrist straps on back and shoulder days but was considering giving fingerless gloves a try. Can anybody make a good recommendation? I dont want the palm very padded so i can have a good grip on the bar. Suggestions?

Chalk.

Unless you actually want a sissy grip.

I don't recommend gloves at all, i used to wear them and i started developing forearm and wrist problems from lack of development. when you use gloves for a better grip you actually hurt yourself in the long run and it will become a crutch

My gym does not allow chalk either.

Here is what you do:

Take a bag to the gym, you know one of those cinch bags that have the strings you pull to open and close the bag. Get a plastic bag, put your chalk in it, and put it in your gym bag along with your other stuff, notebook, ipod, water etc. Between sets just put your hands in your bag, open the chalk bag and rub your hands around, all within your gym bag. Take them out and don't make a mess or a scene and no one should notice/care.

I go to a PF so I have to put up with this horseshit on a daily basis and I haven't gotten called out yet.

I used gloves for a long time. Once I stopped using them my grip improved alot, especially on deadlifts.

I use wrist straps on back and shoulder days.

Id ditch the straps too.... worse for your forearms than the gloves.
