go really heavy (on max days). I use them for wrist support. I have a pair of Harbinger gloves that I have had for eleven years. They have seemed to work well. Other than that, I don’t use them at all. Your hands are pretty resistant.

use gloves that is. When I do, I have a pair of Harbinger gloves with the gel inserts in the palms and the wrist wraps. They are okay but I’ve found that a company called Schiek makes the same type of gloves that are equally if not more comfortable.

You see I’m big into pull-ups and barbell shrugs which are a couple exercises that tend to wreak havoc on my hands. They are basically the only exercises I really require gloves for so I’ve opted for using just wrist wraps. They give me the support I need, they don’t put too much stress on my hands, and still give allow me to feel the weight when I go through the motions. You might want to try that out too.

Dont use them, if you are lifting heavy use straps. Women like rough hands.
