Attention all men! (women are smart enough to know this already,) Guy… calluses are NOT a sign of virility or your level of fitness!  This is an uneducated and outdated perception that was solidified in the 1980's when the "me" decade and Americans' obsession with vanity overtook commonsense in the gym. The days of Jane Fonda workout tapes and Sweating to The Oldies are long gone, and so are the mean head weightlifting gym rats mentality. It's 2017 and it's time to debunk some myths about the exercise and fitness industry and explain not only why workout gloves are important to use in the gym, but why they may be necessary. What are the best workout gloves for gym?

Calluses Are A Result of Trauma

Calluses appear when consistent friction and pressure is place on any part of the skin.  It is your body's natural response to the trauma and stress being placed on the area.  Almost as an amour, the body grows thicker and harder skin to act as a shield. Dry calluses hands aren't a phenomenon unique to weight lifting or for those that workout at the gym regularly.  Tradesmen, manual laborers and athletes experience them too.  You don't see them walking around saying "I'm an awesome brick layer because my hands feel like an elephants scrotrum."  So why should someone have this mentality at the gym or in the weight room?  Especially in 2017!

Debunk The Myth Of Gym Gloves, Crossfit Gloves and Weightlifting Gloves

In the 1980's millions of (mostly men) hit the weight room with determination and vigor.  One could almost hear the mantra "go hard or go home" being whispered with every drop of sweat that hit the floor. Unfortunately science, and experience has shown that harder is not necessarily better.  2017 best workout gloves are far different than what would have been considered nearly 40 years ago.

GymPaws® Workout Gloves are made for performance with minimal padding, and hand protection only where you need it, not where you don't.

State of the art military-grade Neoprene is used for the back of GymPaws because of it's hydro-phobic nature.  It wicks away sweat and water leaving the palm of your hands, and grip, more secure.  Four finger loops keep the grip pads in place and actually make them feel like a glove.
