I get much better contact/grip and a more pure/real connection of whatever it is I am holding. Equaling better lifts.

*My wedding ring is silicone and is no issue while training
This guy....I am 41 (well almost) and I train balls to walls without gloves or straps. Use chalk, and hook grip only..But my recovery is shit but that's for another day. I am not against using straps but only on the last set and when I absolutely need to. Same applies for belt...
