This isn’t a glorious topic but needs to be addressed. Hand care is a MUST, I don’t care how feminine you think putting on lotion and to pumice your hands are. To me it makes absolutely NO sense not to take care of your hands, it’s the ONE connection you have to the bar. With that stated, you’d think you’d value this vital part of a Weightlifter. You’ve trained so hard to now put chalk on an open wound and expect to have the competition bar ridges cut into it even deeper?
The below products are two things that a Weightlifter needs. I’ve tried many things including a razor…I know it’s stupid…long story short I forgot to pumice down my hand before a competition and thought it’ll work well…nope, came out dripping in blood. So learn from my dumb-ass mistake and prepare ahead time with these two cheap methods.

Hand lotion:
That’s all folks.
Stay strong,
