Why use 500 weight training gloves?
The black 500 bodybuilding gloves provide:
- a better grip despite perspiration
- greater comfort thanks to the padded suede material on the palm of the hand,
- to avoid chalk which can dry out the hands,
- to avoid touching the equipment after everyone else,
- to protect against blisters and horn formation.
Why choose the 500 over the 100?
Unlike the 100 weight gloves, the 500 gloves have a thicker foam in the palm of the hand to prevent minor injuries and tightness. So there's no excuse for missing a workout because of hand blisters.
For which exercises are 500 weight training gloves best suited?
These bodybuilding gloves are versatile, suitable for strict movements such as biceps curl, triceps, goblet squat, strict pull-ups, as well as dynamic movements such as kipping pull-ups and toes-to-bar!
How to choose your bodybuilding gloves?
Nothing could be simpler:
- measure the perimeter of your palm.
- refer to our sizing guide, which will help you choose between the different sizes available (from XS to 2XL).
If you are hesitating between 2 sizes, we advise you to take the size above.
Comfort for both hands and knees
For uncompromising strength training, use knee pads (ref: 8548500) which provide warmth for your joints, reducing the risk of injury. No part of your body will be damaged.
How do I care for my 500 weight training gloves?
Depending on the frequency of your workouts, we suggest that you run them through the washing machine or wash them with hand detergent regularly (once every 3 weeks for a 2x per week workout).
