I don't know any Glovers, but I did see Lethal Weapon, it has a Glover in it.

Wear the calluses with pride

If you dont want your hands scuffed up, wear some. What other ppl think on a forum should be the last thing you worry about when you go to the gym. I have almost thought of picking me up some, because I dont like the skin folds that happens when you grip heavy weights correctly. I think one of the reasons I have problems with tendonitis is incorrectly holding weights over time because I didnt want these calluses, and rest the weight on my fingers instead of of the center of my hand. Just guessing, though.

Anyways, if you dont want your hands screwed up, then just buy some gloves. Lots of guys at my gym wear them, I'm sure enough at your gym wear them that you wont garner any looks.

Only fanny bandits wear gloves.

I wear gloves, not only because of the caulasus but mostly, it gives me support, much like when I bench using a thicker bar. no differnt than a belt, or knee brace, support is support whether its from gettin calauses or back injuries.

a belt is not for support, it's for giving your abs something to brace against to help strengthen your squats/deads. if you're wearing a belt to avoid back injuries, you have confused what a belt is for. also, i don't see how gloves give more support. if you're using a thicker bar, how is adding extra thickness (from the glove) giving you more support?

I did not know that about the belt. But the glove makes it seem like my hands wrap around the bar better because I have longer fingers and it just doesn't feel full you know, like full circumfirence, the gloves and thicker bar just feel more natural to me, or for instance using this plastic wide handle/grips for dips. I just know it works with my hands.

by the way in all technicallity. something to brace against or "HELP' strengthen is support. support is anything used, to help, with, or in conjunct with something.

yes it supports in that meaning, but 99% of the people wearing them in the gym (including myself at one point) do so b/c they think it's helping to protect their back in some way. which it doesn't. but i feel you on what you're saying, even though it wouldn't work the same for me, if you know it helps you then that's all that matters.

I just meant because people always talk **** about gloves (not you specifically), when they use all these other things for support, so I said it like that because, everyone is uses some support so it would be illogical from someone to use a belt and call someone a p**sy for using gloves, or can alcoholic calling a heroin addict worthless. but w3rd bro!

Honestly you have to go with whatever feels comfortable for you. I used to never use gloves until the calluses started getting bad. Now I use them all the time. It's not like someone is going to approach you because you wear gloves at the gym lol

[k9pit]

do what you wanna do who cares what someone else thinks.

i wear gloves because i want to. don't care who does or doesn't. they aren't lifting the weights for me so screw their opinion on stuff like that.
