Weightlifting can be tough on the hands and wrists - causing callouses and wrist ache if you’re not careful. Plus, losing your grip on dumbbells, barbells or kettlebells can be annoying - especially if you’re mid-set.
Sweaty hands make it harder to get a good grip, so the best weightlifting gloves should be as breathable as they are padded. Most are fingerless so you can use your hands and fingers during a workout, but some cover the whole hand for added protection. But, if you’re a newbie to the weightlifting scene, what else should you look for in a glove?
