Gloves, Kai Greene and Ronnie Coleman

[qbanfreak90]

What is the brand of these gloves, Ive seen Kai and Ronnie using them

[Nightwing]

Sting EVO 7 weightlifting gloves. I really wanted to buy them cuz they are fucking badass but the fucking gloves aren't sold in the USA so I'm shit out of luck. Sting Gloves must have given Ronnie and Kai a free pair while they were down under on a tour or appearance. Anyway, I'm ordering me some Harbinger pro gloves with the wrist support or Monsta gloves.

By down under, I mean Australia as it appears they are only sold there.

Absolutely, callouses can't be beat

Scheik gloves are very good.. offer wrist support as well as grip and cut off fingers. I've bee using the same pair for 3 years and still solid.

Schiek uses synthetic leather. Screw that, I want the power of cow when I kill it in the gym. I'm going with Harbinger. The Monsta gloves are the most badass looking though beside the Sting EVO 7 gloves that aren't sold in the USA.

the power of cow = sweaty hands.. less breathable.

so your gloves will stink and break apart in no time.

Hmm, good point with the breathability but I'm pretty sure the real leather would last longer than the synthetic stuff.

Never understood the allure of wearing gloves to lift.
What's wrong with having callouses?

[Schmidy]

Sting is an Aussie brand very good quality

they could but i would chalk my hands before wearing them like ronnie coleman did..to keep away sweat.

Personally i like the calluses, they don't hurt or bother me lifting and most girls i've been with like them too. I hate the idea of all the bacteria growing in gloves from sweating with them on. I will use wrist wraps for very heavy pressing motions, and versa gripps for very heavy pulling motions. Other wise i'm not a fan of "props".

I've found some badass weightlifting gloves: http://www.rdxinc.co.uk/categories/Weight-Lifting-Gloves/
They look fucking badass but they're only sold in the UK However it looks like they can do international shipping.

I say go bare Hands

Good point, wrist wraps are much better for pulling and wrist supports sound great for pushing. However, many of the gloves have wrist support attached to the gloves and this is even better for pushing as the wrist support will never slide down your sweaty wrist since it's attached to the glove.

lol@ they look badass.. are you a diva? do you go to gym to train or look pretty?

buy the gloves and use them for what they are made for: to protect your hands and give you extra grip and support. not for posing and looking like a queen.

wrist support that come with the gloves are not as strong as standard wrist wraps.. but its better than nothing. if you want the gloves for wrist support then you will be dissapointed. they provide only minimal support.

Your statement makes little sense bro. Why bother buying a car with stock rims if you can get the same one with premium rims? The one with premium rims looks better.

Hmm, interesting point. I'll be sure to post a review of my new gloves when I get them. I use Schiek lifting straps with neoprene and they are awesome!

i see your point bro... i've always been more of a practical/functional type of guy when it comes to materialism.. but if you can afford it, i guess you can get the one that looks nice.

in all fairness many perform better when they feel good and look good. That goes from the uniforms with team sports to individuals competing on their own. "looking good" and then feeling good to some may be sweats and torn up shirts.

I have to wear matching shoes with certain outfits at the gym or I literally won't workout it makes me feel good, more confident, and I perform better. I'm married and don't overly socialize at the gym so I'm not some momo going there to flirt but I just feel good in nice gym clothes.

[soujerz]

I'll reapply my hair gel 4-5 times in just one hour session at the gym. lol nah im joking. Personally i lift to look good when i'm not lifting, but thats me, whatever works for you guys just don't force your shit on me.

[Nightwing]

Here are the RDX cool gloves. Sold on amazon.com for 30 bucks.152729 Here are the Harbinger ones I was gonna get but probably won't anymore. Amazon has these for under $20.152730

No Doubt... I feel like using Gloves Spiritually pulls you away from the IRON!! Be one with the Dumbell Son! hahahha

[esau]

you must be single... nothing worse than scratching your girls nipples off with rough calluses.

[Nightwing]

Right, and I have a bad habit of actually chewing my calluses down as much as possible with my teeth so then my palm becomes like a weapon with half chewed up dried skin poking up.
