Anyone use these. I'm thinking of getting them with my 20% discount. I have the weighted gloves and want something else to wear/strip off for drop sets. I'm tired of having a gazillion sets of weights on the floor during a workout.

Cindy,

I have them and like them, but I want the weighted gloves now
I'm waiting to use my 20% off coupon.
I'm going to get another pair of Cathe weight lifting gloves. I've owned several brands, but I think Cathe's are the best. I want a spare pair

I have them and like them. Also have the weighted gloves and the ankle/wrist weights. I use all 3 together to add 4# increments to each arm! A little awkward but it works.

I've been eyeing these as well. I love the weighted gloves - they've really made a difference when I've had those odd weight increments. I, too, was thinking about getting them with my coupon (I need new weight lifting gloves as well!)

I don't have the Cathe pair, but have 2.5's each that are exactly like them ~ Nike I think. I use them for those odd weights for STS too, and they work very well! they are quick to get on and off. Much easier IMHO than the weighted gloves, and those are limited to the 1 lb each fully loaded...

Do the thumb hook weights make holding the dumbbells awkward at all?

I have them and love them. They are not awkward for me at all. They are only 1lb which I love but I wish they came in 2lbs as well.

They are so easy and fast to put on and off.

The way they wrap around the wrist makes for a very fast on and off, and it stays completely out of they way for handling weights. The only thing I find is that they are a bit binding around my heart rate monitor.

Not a all.

I do have to take my wrist monitor for bodybugg off. No biggie.
I love them!
