Lifting gloves thing is real, if your little paws hurt that means you arent ready just yet, disagree on that split though, used to do that rputine but bro splits actually helped me put on more size, takes a lot of fucking effort to exhaust your back muscles, you need a full workout for them, this is one of those muscle groups you will rarely feel sore afterwards

[-]

PotatoFromFrige@reddit

Can you explain the lifting gloves thing?

[-]

Schaden_Fraude@reddit

Yep, you wont always wear gloves during day to day, if you have gloves on all the time you dont build up your calluses properly, they act as a layer of protection that stays on all the time, say one day you wanna help someone lift a heavy object you can end up with a skin tear because your hands never got used to it, those can lead to infections which arent fun

[-]

broniesnstuff@reddit

I'm sorry, I don't want a man with calloused hands touching my dick every day. Gotta keep them paws baby soft for optimal friction.

The occasional skin tear is a price I'm willing to pay.

We do the same shit for muay thai, we have a heavier bag thats not soft at all and we just stay after class and kick that shit until you cant feel your shins, judo mfers too, if you know anyone who does a lot of judo their hands are gnarly as fuck

[-]

meechmeechmeecho@reddit

I think lifting gloves are situational. You wouldn’t need use them in every exercise, but they can be nice when grip is the bottleneck on a lift. The ones with wrist straps can also be nice on certain exercises if you have wrist issues.

[-]

Tack22@reddit

You have wrist issues because you’ve failed the natty

[-]

Heil_Heimskr@reddit

Straps aren’t the same as gloves though. Straps help with grip on exercises like deadlift, and are basically necessary if you’re moving a lot of weight. Gloves don’t do shit except protect you from calluses, which is dumb. They don’t help your grip strength.

[-]

DexterBrooks@reddit

you wont always wear gloves during day to day

You will if you're doing things like construction, mechanics, woodworking, furniture moving, and many other things while actually caring about your hands.

I do all of that, I wear gloves for all of it. I've had calluses build up, you know what causes the most skin tearing mess you've ever seen? Having a callus tear off.

Having soft non callused hands while being able to lift things as heavy or textured as I want is fantastic and I recommend lifting gloves, work gloves, mechanics gloves, etc, to everyone just like other forms of PPE like safety glasses and earplugs/earmuffs.

[-]

kerodon@reddit

You sold me on wearing gloves thanks 🙏

[-]

DexterBrooks@reddit

Specifically for lifting also look into straps, weight belt, and lifting shoes.

Belt and shoes are to avoid back issues and to let you squat deep and with proper form.

Straps mean you can work your other muscles without being limited by grip which will eventually happen when you get strong enough.

[-]

Pyrimo@reddit

Somebody who gets it. There’s a reason PPE exists, not just for work either. Going to a show? Wear earplugs. Lifting something heavy where grip is sketchy? Gloves or at least straps. Etc etc.

I’d rather look like a “pussy” than have parts of my body be double my age in deterioration. Besides, only a raging ** cares about what others think they look like.

[-]

DexterBrooks@reddit

Exactly. I work with many old guys, tons of people I know who have done damage because they didn't wear PPE for years.

Even guys only 10 years older than me who didn't wear it, knee problems, hand problems, shoulders, etc.

I lift heavy thing and do physical work, but I'm going to minimize the long term damage to my body as much as possible. Some people will make a comment every once in a while "oh do you really need earmuffs just for an impact?" Yeah m8 I do.

[-]

Pyrimo@reddit

I know 2 lads with tinnitus cus they just took a “she’ll be right” attitude to safety on site. Both have trouble getting to sleep without noise in the background…

[-]

DexterBrooks@reddit

Yep. Multiple people in my family have tinnitus, some caused by medication, some by dental machines, others from heavy equipment.

My friend has it and doesn't even know why. He had a heart issue and it just magically appeared after that. Maybe from wearing headphones too loud for 20 years or something else idk.

Then I have more family members that just have normal hearing loss, you have to talk louder and lower for them to even hear you. At least they don't have the ringing, but even if you just get normal loss to their degree it would still suck. Can't make our whispers anymore, have to listen to things louder so you increase the damage you're taking from everything else. Just terrible.

urs_blank@reddit

What kind of "you're going to eat shit later so you might as well start now" logic is this? It's really not that difficult to come prepared with gloves when I help somebody move or whatever. Calluses can just as easily form a risk for injuries due to persistently dry skin that is hard to properly take care of.

[-]

D15c0untMD@reddit

I felt like not only would i not build calluses, but also that the little bit of wiggle made it difficult to do clean heavy lifts. Maybe i had bad gloves. But i lost them somewhere, lifted without, and liked it better

[-]

CommanderReg@reddit

Artificially enhances your grip strength which actually prevents you from naturally building a stronger grip during a lot of lifts

Prevents callouses from forming meaning your hands will remain soft (could be a preferred outcome)

If you're a casual gymgoer and want to keep your hands safe and smooth, that's what they're for. If you take lifting weights seriously at all then they're counterproductive and a bad idea. Most people use straps for the heaviest deadlifts to compensate for grip (usually fails at heavy max weights), which are superior in that regard.

[-]

SkradTheInhaler@reddit

Gloves don't even enhance your grip strength. If anything, they decrease it. Gloves create another layer on the bar, effectively increasing its diameter. A thicker bar is harder to grip. They can maybe add friction, but this is more effectively achieved with chalk.

[-]

CommanderReg@reddit

I agree, they don't enhance your strength but they do improve your grip as in the bar won't slip or slide as easily with less pressure required. Also agree on chalk being more effective.

[-]

LocalFBI@reddit

Love chalk over straps myself, feels so much more free/natural

[-]

Phish1220@reddit

Nah, straps all the way bro. My back will never not be stronger than my forearm grip strength, so why not eliminate that limiting factor with straps.

2 horse girls. Weird and crazy. Wouldnt be surprised if they jack off their horses now

[-]

NonAwesomeDude@reddit

Count is 1 but was crazy.

Probably undiagnosed BPD, definitely extremely low self-esteem.

Was obsessed with any casual interaction I had with any other girl (she was a college freshman who poached me, a high school junior, just before she went to school). Claimed it wasn't because I might cheat but because, "I don't like the idea of another girl thinking she has a shot," because, "I don't want them to think they have something over me". Wanted daily reports on which women I talked to and the content of the conversations. I just stopped interacting with people all together because it was easier.

Broke up with me 3 times and only the last one stuck. She'd always come back begging to get back together, and my dumb otherwise-a-vigin ass would always take her back.

Played games of saying, "I don't wanna be the girlfriend who doesn't let you go to stuff" when she meant, "don't go to that stuff or I'm gonna throw a fit".

Lost half my high school experience, basically.

So yea, stay far away from horse girls and don't date a girl that's leaving for college if you're in high school and if you're not gonna break up with her before she leaves.

ive dated 2. never again. one was crazy, the other was kind of a bitch. had a cool dad tho.

2 buddies of mine had horse girl girlfriends. one cheated on him and then dumped him, the other cheated on him and he dumped her, and then she went on to lie to all her friends and his friends and family to accuse the super introverted dude of cheating on her and hitting her. like yeah girl, your long distance boyfriend totally hits you. thats why you waited 2 months since his last visit to say anything.

fucking never trust horse girls. they will ruin your life. its slightly different if its a girl that actually owns horses. then you have a farm girl and they are alright.

Ramael-R@reddit

Has some actually decent advice but a couple very regarded ones as well.

Splits work even if you are natty because you can load each muscle group with more overall stress and pack more workouts in a week compared to full body exercises (and I mean efficient workouts, not working out beyond weekly exhaustion with no gains)

Wear gloves. Don't wear gloves. Who the fuck cares. Wearing protective gear is not lame, but thinking about what others think of you while you should be giving the workout your hardest, OR judging other people for choosing to wear protective gear is pretty fucking lame.

What the hell is a Horse Girl?

[-]

girls that usually have a horse as a pet, mostly rancher/famers families that have the means to take care of a horse, but also girls that come from a well-off family that has the time/money for them to become equestrians.

[-]

UDAFX_MK_85@reddit

Ok, then how is it a terrible idea to be with one?

[-]

swolemexibeef@reddit

it becomes their whole personality, think of gymbro personality but crank it up by 20. Their whole lives revolves around the horse and horse activities (rodeos, barrel racing, etc). with the girls that come from well-off families, they tend to develop "brat" mentalities because since they have access to time/money to support an expensive animal, they aren't really told "no" so they think they can get away with anything. The extreme cases (for both) also tend to develop destructive habits (drug/alcohol abuse most famously). Granted, you may think, "well this can happen to anyone with anything given such conditions" and you may be right, but the horses is what makes these situations memorable/memeable.

It's an Internet meme, which actually is not really a meme as it's pretty grounded in reality, that suggests that horse girls are a bit off their rocker, to put it nicely, but not in the "wild crazy fun" way.
