    Workout Golves Suggestions?

    Anyone have a suggestion for workout gloves. I have some but I'm still getting callouses on my hands

    Thanks!

    I use Harbinger womens stretchback gloves and love them. My hands are rather small though The fingers on the gloves come up to just above the knuckle

    Another vote for Harbinger. I just switched from Nike and I'm finding the Harbinger's far more resilient.

    I'll have to investigate Harbinger. Although my Nike gloves to the job very well.

    I've always heard no gloves is the best option. It will build your grip strength and forearms.

    gloves are really important so you can take full advantage of your contact with any hard training that is full of griping i think that the person who train hard and uses his grip on alot of his workouts should consume a glove or a strap for maximum contact without any pain that could make you not to continue your reps and you can but your hands hurt you big time while you got your choice to not to get hurt and safe your hands and your workout

    Not exactly. Some women and men wear gloves to avoid/minimize callouses, but a lot of us wear them so our hands don't hold back our lifts. It's a personal decision and there's no right or wrong. Personally I use gloves and versa grips as I refuse to let my hands or wrists hold back developing other muscles.

    ^ This is what I wear gloves for. Plus minimization of calluses

    I also vote for Harbinger or Nike gloves. I like the stretch back design.

    I use gloves because my hands become sweaty and I don't like the feeling of the bar slipping around in my grip.....I'm afraid the bar will slip out and crush me on bench.
