wear gloves, duh
Callouses are your body's natural response to protect your hands.
Stop being a little bitch
gloves you idiot. this is why blisters/callouses kill gains
>>39713518
Quit being a lil bitch.
Protip: use thumbless grip on back machines, more back activation.
Get a callous shaver and trim them down so they don't get caught.

>lat pull down machine
It's what you deserve for using a meme machine instead of doing (weighted) pullups.
Those are calluses and it's a little surprising that the only bar work you do is lat pull down, if you're sure that's the cause. The fuck is your routine?
You get calluses when you compress skin between the rest of your palm and the bar. To fix, adjust your grip so that the bar rests directly against the flats of your fingers, rather than settling into the palm skin adjacent to your fingers.

lrn2grip properly and shave the callouses you already have
stop being a pansy
Get gloves, hands with hold you back without them.
calluses are there to protect yo skin
if they start getting caught in stuff, then just shave them down a little but don't get rid of them

>sport that requires gloves
yeah I guess gloves would be better if the sport required them. weightlifting does not require gloves, and gloves hinder weightlifting.
not even the guy you replied to, but fuck man stop memeing these new guys.

If you're gonna lift, you're gonna have those. Nothing you can do about it. Either deal with it, or stop training.

Except going to a gym isn't a sport. Wearing gloves really weakens your grip.
Rubber coated grips are WAY worse for callouses than barbells. OP just gotta live with it and trim them as and when.

Rippletits spells it out for you.
>>39713518
Use more of your fingers and less of your whole hand when you grip.
>>39713518
Just stop having weak skin.

You can always try putting your tampon in.
use straps
I get really bad callouses when I deadlift. Any advice or is that just normal ?
