Are you kidding? Workout gloves multiply your normal strength. W/out gloves I'm deadlifting like 23lbs. With gloves I'm up to 438lbs. Think about that!
Wow, your really funny. You must be a card to hang out with. That's a big jump from deadlifting 43lbs with gloves. I just noticed that alot of them are starting to wear a certain type of workout glove. I don't remember who said it, but some pro said it helped him lift a little heavier. Not sure if Ronnie said that.
can I use yours?
I think everyone wears them when they first start working out. Then, sometime between your nuts dropping from your stomach and your first chest hair you realize they are for pussies and quickly get rid of them.
They wear them cause they are paid to.
They are endorsers of said gloves. Personally, I could care less for gloves. If you are worried about pretty hands, than you should not be working out at any place other than Curves.
Unless you are a hand male model, you should not need them. Women, I can understand, but men, real men..... ::)
When you're caressing that very special lady, she don't want to feel no nasty callouses. So smoove he-studs like myself always don protection. No glove, no love.
If your girl is complaining that your hands are too rough:
1) Your has never been with a man before
2) You're with the wrong girl
Gloves are for metrosexuals, or people who are paid to wear them.

You must be a beast ::) Post your pics ::)
One thing is for sure.................
I DWARF YOU BITCH! ;D
True enough ;D. But I'll murder you in a marathon ;D
What about wrestling?
What about wrestling?
Girls want a real man. She can say "I like your soft hands"
But as shes saying it, shes staring out the window looking at the massive construction worker, wishing like hell to have him.
She wont ever feel safe with a pink skinned pussy.........otherwise she'd just date her girlfreinds.
construction worker.....are you referring to Dorian Yates? ;D
If a guy has taste, and knows how to dress, you get hicks calling them metrosexuals. That makes me laugh, next time I go out, i should wear a lumber jacket.
Uh huh............among others. ;D
Hahahahhahahaha.... ;D Save some for the 160 pound marathon runners ;D
BTW, I couldn't wear those faggity clothes if I wanted to. I'm not a big guy, but at 225+, they just don't fit me. You have to have chicken legs to fit those pants, and no arms or a chest to fit the shirts.
You can always get them tailored.
Speaking of construction workers…Any of you remember that Diet Coke commercial where all the hot office ladies would run to the window at a certain hour to catch a glimpse of that shirtless construction worker? I bet he didn’t worry about rough hands like a bi-curious metrosexual.
Your comparing, "navels showing, bell bottom-tight ass pants. Tiny shirts with shoes from the seventies", to workout gloves.

I did because I hate it when people use that word metrosexual. It's like a guy's a fag if he cares about the way he looks.
Yeah, but like I said, big difference. Nothing wrong with dressing right. Metrosexual look, is gay.
Would you consider every pink shirt gay? ??? Is salmon acceptable? ;D
Rip your callouses off your hands once and then tell me gloves are for pussies
True enough ;D. But I'll murder you in a marathon ;D
Meltdown.
How many times will this thread show up ::)
Once again............... i wear them in the winter when it's very cold and summer when it's very hot 8)

hey uncle mike! hey uncle mike!! tell us one more time the story of when you wore the workout gloves and when you didnt!!!!!!! puhhh-leeeeeeeeeeeeze!??!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
i think yates reply to the question of "do you use gloves" was "gloves are for pussies".
LOL, that's pretty much what I was gonna say. I had a pair of "Lee Haney" gloves in the 80's. I thought workout gloves went out with leg warmers and those Michael Jackson jackets.
When you're caressing that very special lady, she don't want to feel no nasty callouses. So smoove he-studs like myself always don protection. No glove, no love.Lotta women like da rough hands. Turn on/construction worker fantasy type shit ;)
using gloves is not gay
not at all(http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00008YSL9.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg)
that's common sense dude, gloves and straps help your gripstraps ok, gloves no. better to use chalk anyway. if someone bitches about chalk on gym equip tell him to fuck off. thats what i do, works like a charm
I feel like my grip is better without gloves. There's a guy that comes in our gym wearing white gloves. Needless to say I rag on him alot.
it's a matter of preference... when you hanle big weights u need them to save your skin...callusses are not nice to have
my hands are split and dry. I gotta remember to use lotion.
I am a girl. I just have dry skin and rough hands from work...damm things.

I didn't know you were a girl. Well, in that case I can see you wearing gloves but Lucius still has some explaining to do.
I don't wear gloves. and my hands are messed up from work but I don't take care of them
In Arnold's Modern Encyclopedia, he was against wearing training gloves and said the callous you'll develop on your hands from training would give you grip
I followed that advice up until a few years ago when I slipped and dropped a dumbbell on my foot because my hands were slippery. I now wear gloves not because I've gotten weak but because the extra grip helps you out in training a great deal.

Are they white kid gloves? Or driving gloves? ;D thisiskeith12, do you find that your hands get too rough without gloves?
tried them for a while.....always kinda felt like a poser, though.arnold was a poser. ;D
Arnold never wore gloves.
I wear gloves. Living in L.A., CA. I get casting calls for commercials. The high paying national commercials like mcdonalds, hershey, and beer all need you to have non-calloused hands. Now lets see....$30,000 working out with gloves, or $0 trying to impress another man working out without gloves...hmmmmm tough decision.
