I need a glove that won't slip when I do push-ups on a hard wood floor. Will these work for that?

Hi Agb, I had no problem doing push-ups with these gloves on the gym's wood floor.

I use these when I do push-ups and have never had a problem. I suggest getting a medium so it doesn't rub against your palm too much as well

I can't say for sure but I think they would be okay for that. My problem was with gripping the weights and the fingers stretching out that the material bunched up at the ends of the fingers.

There is a slight slippage. I think over time there would be a lot of slippage. I did not have any slippage when I did push ups on a throw rug that has low cut thread.

The bearings are spread out so in a way it would help-they sort of turn your fist into one more dense contact point. They are more protect your hand. They do not interfere w/ grappling more than any other snug leather glove would.

Hold rug? No- these pads keep my furniture from slipping when you get up or sit down on furniture that is on hardwood floors. My sofa has the front legs on my floor rug but the back legs are on the wood flooring. These keep those back legs from slipping at all! Hope this helps.

Yes. The plastic shell protects against stones and other debris you might encounter. The biggest plus for me remains that they stay in place. I've bought a dozen or so knee pads over the years in search of a pair that would not slip down. With other knee pads, I've knelt down and found out painfully that the kneelers had slipped. It's a pain (pun intended) to find out that your knee pads have slipped, and it's also a pain to be checking them and tugging them up all the time. These kneelers fasten securely, stay in place, and provide great protection. I'm on my second pair; I wore out the first pair after many years. I myself would not buy any other knee pads. Yes.

I would use regular boxing gloves with a wrap for that, don't feel these would be protective enough

I do not see why. Although my guess is if they get wet, there could be a slight chance of slippage depending what they are being used for. I have them in my basement where I workout, lifting weights. I sweat and drip onto the mats. But I am not running on them. Hope this helps. Good Luck! Happy 4th!

Perfect Pushups would be good for that because you will use the same concept of knuckle pushups without your knuckles on the ground/floor. I decided to give them a try, due to a shoulder injury and they provide better grip and stability for working on pushups while recovering from an injury.

I have wood floors and it doesn't slip, don't think it would slip on carpet because you are putting your weight straight down on it. Believe me, you will enjoy The Push up press.

The mat stays good on a hard floor, like in a gym. Have not tried on hardwood. The mat gets slippy when you sweat during the excercise. I like the size, but it could have more grip on its surface.

these types of gloves seem to be made for mechanics in mind to prevent burns and abrasions while maintaining dexterity, therefore they do work well for many other light physical labor tasks and chores. however I do not use them for masonry work of any sort, they just do not last a long timeI hope this helps....?

Hi there Yes great grip. You can't go wrong with Harbingers gloves. I've been using them for years, same pair still in good condition and I recently bought 2 pairs from Amazon for my partner and he absolutely loves them as he lifts heavy weights. Cheers, Nancy

No they will not be slippery! They grip very well and are well made! Just don't wear them on linoleum or wood floors as they will tear these type of floors up! Ice does not have a chance against these! I wore these during the cold, icy and snowy Afghanistan winter and they did the job great!

I'm not a petite woman, but yes, you should not have any problem grasping these. Mostly, you lay the pad of your hands on the top and loosly grasp with your fingers. They are so stable that I could do pushups without grasping them at all with my fingers. They are tacky and don't move, and I use them on a concrete floor.

I wouldn't use them for that purpose. There is a slightly raised pattern on them (making them great for a non-slip surface). They are great on a basement floor to add a level of comfort for joints when doing plyo, aerobics, placing fitness machines on as well as layig a yoga mat on. But I don't think they are the type of mat designed well for Jiu Jitsu or wrestling.

Oh yeah it should be fine for just pushups ^ . It didn't move on the floor at all for me, on carpet and wood.

While the gloves are thick, I can't say that they would protect your hands from bruises from being bumped. I believe they would cushion the bump but I can't say to what degree. I really like the way they not only keep my hands warm, but they also help with arthritic pain. I personally recommend them for the stiff joints and aches of arthritis. I hope this helps.

I have never heard of a 'cut resistant glove. Sounds intriguing. My view: it might be helpful although the only time I need real caution are when I get it out of my drawer or when I wash it
