• On most models, there are corrugated linings in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe palms and fingers. Thanks to them, traction with the bar or slippery crossbar is improved. They also dampen the pressure on the hands when working with large weights.

• With heavy loads, there is a risk of displacement of the joints on the hands - many weightlifters are familiar with this problem. And gloves significantly reduce the risk of this injury.

• When exercising in the gym, the palms often sweat, which increases the risk of the barbell slipping from bare hands. The corrugated surface of the gloves eliminates this danger.

• Since many people work out on one simulator in the gym, fungi and pathogenic bacteria can appear on the surface. The surface of the gloves prevents them from getting on the skin.
