bodybuilders: question

[TLontheDL]

When you work out, do you wear gloves or no gloves?

I forgot mines today and had to do without it. I now appreciate what gloves does to a body builder. My hands are too sexy and delicate to have callus. Now i have to break my fasting and start using my left hand again to moisturize my hands. :-\

[CharismaY33]

lol ok metro go moisturize them sexy hands of urs haha. ;D just jk neways when i work out yes i do wear gloves i feel it gives better grip for pushing weight n stuff.. but ahh i like the ones with finger cutouts i mean they sell both but i like the feel of them though....

[TLontheDL]

i thought all workout gloves are finger cut outs? no??

[CharismaY33]

ahh there common but some use the ones without cut outs to prevent slipping rare but it does happen. But yea most use cutout gloves.

[Dark Anghell]

I personally don't use any gloves. It feels better at the expense of calysis...which gives character hehe.

There are some gloves that have straps hanging off of them, you wrap them around a dumbell so that you are not wasting energy trying to hold on to the dumbell. I might get gloves like that.

gloves. harbinger.

LOL Okay, Gloves are sometimes a pain in the ass but they do two things... Protect your "sexy" hands.. lol And keep the nastiness from the last person off your hands. Face it a gym is a bacteria farm.. Next time you touch anything at the gym think about it. The guy/girl that was scratching his balls/kooch or itching his/her ass? Ya gotta wonder! Next time watch! You will freak at the things that people do in gyms. hahaha,,, I really like it when the chick who makes the smoothies just came from a workout and forgets to wash her hands... HURL!

I've never juiced but I used to take this stuff that was taken off the shelves and was labeled illegal... M1T. Some crazy stuff, but I had to take other pills with it to "prevent" side effects like man boobs, and to turn my bodys own testosterone (sp?) back on... but after 2 weeks of taking it, I noticed that I wasn't bale to get my flag pole up, my rod at full extention, my antenna up, I wasn't getting a hard on is what I'm trying to say... then I got super super sick so I had to stop taking it.... now, I'm going all natural... a body builder friend of mine told me to just eat whatever I want, whenever I want and to make up for it just lift f*cking hard... so I do... I don't use glove. I used some wrist straps with flaps on them so the weight hangs on my wrists and not on my fingers-less effort to hold the bar...

My older brother used to inject horse steriods in the butt muscle,but got sick and pee'd neon green...

Gahhhhh Dayummmm!!! Too much info. TMI!


Gloves or no gloves?

[eyedea]

wow@this topic taking a wierd twist.

[kingpin]

Wow!! gloves never had that much attention after MJ and OJ !!!:pat:

[inspired1]

I use Harbinger gloves too.

[TLontheDL]

I haven't lift with gloves in forever. For some reason, i bench more with gloves. I like to go bare to increase my strength in grip and stuff.

I don't juice

Another question: How long after you downing your protein shake, after your lift, do you eat? do you all eat along with your post workout shake? What i do is i drink my shake right after lifting...shower...and then drive home and eat a mixture of carb & protein meal but more protein than carb b/c i drink my shake with milk.

M1T will break you out like crazy but will give you good gains in strength and size quick. Hope you drank a min. of a gallon of water a day at least to
clean that shit out of your system.

If you're going to joose, might as well use the real deal b/c it's not as harsh on your livers as the pills.

Yea just keep up what you're doing and don't just consume anything b/c you are what you eat unless you weigh like a buc 20.

I wear gloves too b/c I'm considerate to the women.:biggthumpup:

[Qfour5]

I use harbinger wrist wraps they were like $20 and just help when your trying to lift heavy weight. I use them mainly on back day shrugs and deadlifts they really help.

[TLontheDL]

ill have to try these straps. I only see them used when doing deadlifts.

[golfkid777]

Never lifted with gloves... Although I only ever got my bench up to 260, just never felt the need. Always enjoyed my hands being rough with all the work i have done on cars over the years. Weights never bothered the hands that much.

[ExecutiveKoala187]

I never use gloves, they all seem to bleed. Anyways if you lift light then you prb wont need em at all. I lift sum heavy shit and got the hands to prove it, Its a badge of honor.
