Tore open some serious calluses on this past Monday, dead lifting. It has put me out for the past four days, and yes I was using chalk, plenty. Listen I know the whole spiel about gloves hindering grip strength and possibly forearm development. Who here uses gloves? I am seriously considering getting some and want so input/advice. I am sick of having these ugly ass yellow calluses that have a thickness of almost 1cm. Yeah I know some people are proud of them, and consider them battle scars and badges on honor.
I disagree, they are aesthetically displeasing and just plain gross, knowing that you have several lumps of dead skin on your hands at all times does not seem like something I would want, never mind call a badge of honor. Call me a pucy, I could care less.
I cant have these things ripping open every session, especially on weighted pull ups and deads. How detrimental can they really be on muscle growth?
Just to rehash, those who have experience with and without gloves, what is your opinion?
