Gloves or No Gloves?

[JOMO]

Chalk BABAAYYYY!
Ive prob used gloves for about a week about ten years ago but like others I just dont like the feel. Used straps for the longest but now only use even those as little as possible. Only when the grip gives out after heavy deads and rows.

No gloves for me.

Never used gloves in my life.

Straps on Shrugs definitely.....or upright rows as my thumbs sometimes give out.....used to use straps on Deads up until about 3 months ago....my grip has improved dramatically since I dropped them.

just my bare hands now.....I will wrap up the wrists for anything above 80% on bench or mil presses though.

What are straps and gloves?
