do you use a bunch of gloves,straps,belts or do you risk it?

[Skullder]

i use a belt...to hang weights from when i do dips/pullups

 

[Testosterone boy]

I strap my Johnson in so it doesn't hang out below the shorts.



What a problem eh?

[coldblue1955]

i'm a cool daredevil for the most part. no belts or straps in my workouts. Only gloves.

 

[Cut]

if it's good enough for the pro olympic lifters and strongmen, it's good enough for me.

 

[Smurfy]

I used gloves once for heavy DB rows. i hated it. and i dont own a belt or straps

 

[Optimus B]

none

 

[Synpax]

Straps. Because I don't do deads to strengthen my grip.

 

[from zero]

Straps on heavy rack deads and chins. Other than that, everything is raw.

 

[Dave949]

Belt for squats, deads and standing military press. Nothing else.

No gloves. Never did. My callouses are quite obvious.
Used to use wrist straps. Not anymore. Don`t need em now.
No knee wraps. never did.
No elbow wraps. never did.
