I dont understand why people dont like calluses.. It is like the growth of a muscle, it just means that you train on bars! 😀
Personally I occasionally use a toenail clipper to cut off the really lumpy parts. Calluses are not so bad, but they can cause some ugly tears and rips if you do stuff like muscle-ups and clapping pull-ups. Oh well, no pain no gain. Just keep it hygienic, no one likes bloody bars 😉
Just wear a glove full of vaseline
I'am from Mexico…!!! 🌎
yeah having your hands ripping off in half is surely the way to go.
please.
Why is this even an issue? Having calluses is like wearing a medal.. it shows how devoted you are to training.
And stop being such pussies and complain all the time. Swear to god.. people today are such weaklings.
I've been doing bar work for years and have been wearing finger-less gloves for all of it. I've never really had too many callus problems. I'm used to it now, and when I don't have my gloves on, it just feels weird.
Looks like you're bulking big Ed.
I always bite off my calluses. People be watching like WTF is he doing??
Calluses are a badge of honor!
Awesome shirt!
recently got an uncallused blister right below my ring finger. I was doing one armed aussie rows and fucked my shit up bad. It was fresh skin, barely any callused skin.
lol nice shirt
Calluses are natures way to protect your hands. As a lifelong carpenter my hands were always rough, it comes with the turf.
I've weightlifter for two years one callus first month of pull ups 7…
calluses is progress
Be proud of them! Salute!
You should talk more about flappers and splits . How to avoid them and how to heal them . Splits might not be an issue for you bar guys but if you rock climb it's only a matter of time .
try extra virgin coconut oil for calluses
I actually get compliments on them, usually at work i'm clean shaved and wearing a suit but as soon as someone shakes my hand i usually hear the guy or girls saying they're rough in a positive tone kinda like a silent way of saying you work with your hands or do calisthenics.
Calluses make me feel like a champ
Yooo you see be cut bruh. What happened ?
nice shirt
Noobs use gloves.
That Shirt!
I've been holding the bar exactly how I shouldn't 🤦🏻♂️ thanks for the tips
Vaseline and raw shea butter to smooth out . I'm starting out on the bar so I'm not a fan of calluses cuz it hurts and I think I gotta change my grip a bit ..but I will also embrace them as a "growing muscle" . Ty.
I get these from doing wheelies on my bike
Great video!
Calluses makes proud moment when we hand shake with someone and they getting feel our power level is over 9000 xD
only one thing i don't like its effect my grip strength..when its get blast with blood. I only hate calluses because i need one more set….bro.
I used to have calluses, now my hands look normal but the skin in the area where I had calluses is kind of rough, and that’s cool.
Calluses are cool. They are like those chewing gums, which are sour at first, but get sweet with the time.
Same with calluses, it hurts af first, but then you get protected by dead skin.
Thumbs up for the t-shirt 😀👍
Doesn’t the grip that you recommend make it harder to maintain grip?
best tip i found so far. just let the body take care of it and rest. no need to put on tons of chemicals or whatever
Bro one of the best videos on calisthenics!
Sup from India
Embrace em'!
I use my calluses to put out my blunts
My calluses are a badge of honour.
Do chalk powder help with calluses?
How long does it take to form calluses??
By calluses I get compliments.
1 question is removing your callusses smart to do because i dont care that i have calluses but i read somewhere that you can remove it with pumice stone
I walk around barefoot pretty much 24/7 when I can my calluses on my feet are strong but not cracked same for my hands calluses on my feet actually saved my feet from literally exploding from a work injury had around 700-900 pounds roll up my foot but since my feet are calluses the injury only happened on the bottom of my foot right where the joint is where the skin is weakest although getting stitches later at the hospital her needle couldn’t make it through my feet skin on the first try
People: Eww, calluses are gross, no girls are ever gonna hold ur hands
Me: Well, I have no girls to hold hands with so I better hold my bar 😂
CALLUSthenics forever ✌️
This is wrong info. Lotion keeps your skin hydrate and flexible and it does not destroy or weaken calluses. If you use lots of hot water and soap you will dry out your calluses and you will end up with peeling and tearing all over your hands and lose layers of the calluses you worked hard to get. File down edges/snags, use lotion daily, minimize the amount of time your hands spend soaking in hot water.
Callouses are good for your hands
its not work if u always training callisthenics…… calluses is part of callisthenics
