I need some good AND cheap gloves. Any recommendation?

 

I would use them mainly for the bar, pull ups, dips ETC.

 

Please help, I see tons of them on ebay. A direct link would be nice

 

Salute

Don't use gloves man.

 

There's no need for it. Also, calluses are cool.

For hand protection or grip? If for grip, nothing beats chalk. I literally can't hang onto bar on deadlifts my heavy set but 1-2 reps, with chalk I'll hang on for 10. Chalk works.

Ideally use as little as possible, if you absolutely want to put something extra on your hands then see how far you can get with simple things like chalk or wrapping with tape. If you start relying on gloves too much it kinda becomes a crutch. You want your grip to get stronger naturally. Start doing grip strength exercises rather than looking to bandaid over the problem by purchasing gloves. If you're dead set on purchasing something then go ahead but don't get sucked into the marketing gimmick of a $30 dollar pair of gloves, you could probably get something at the dollar store. Get a decent material so they don't fall apart in two weeks.

Got it. Sorry no glove recommendations I haven't used in decades. Thanks for the compliment, the back that deadlifts and pullups built :D
