An in-depth look at the design, science, and community driving the most cushioned hand protection on today’s fitness floor.
Why Hand Protection Matters in Modern Training
Functional fitness, indoor cycling, and high-rep barbell work all load the hands long before muscles fatigue. Friction, vibration, and bar knurling can derail form or sideline progress with torn calluses. An intelligently padded glove offsets this weak link, sustaining grip strength so athletes finish sets—and seasons—without avoidable injuries. (wadmitts.com)
