Can I just use these for regular weightlifting? And if so, are they any good?

Yes, you can. However, I do not keep them on for too long because they tend to squeeze around my the mid-section of my hand. I had purchased two sizes. The extra small was entirely too tight, but the small was a better fit. So whatever size you are just make sure to get a size up. I honestly forget them a lot and have gotten used to the callouses. But, when I use them, they are functional and cool looking. Hope this helps.

you could use them for a home gym/cardio. They're pretty thick/soft. They look like something that would be in a kids room, so as long as you're ok with that.

I use these gloves on a regular and they are great for all types of exercises. I bought specifically for pull-ups and the are fantastic. Get them, you won't regret it.

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.

Utilizing these within your training cycle will increase strength with the same lifts. Rotate using them and not using them, in time you'll be able to lift more in those specific lifts. I found these to be most beneficial with pulling movements.

Definitely would NOT use these for yoga.... as far as resistance training with machines, they are good to use on your heaviest sets. =]

As mentioned by Hridoy, the headphone design would preclude you from weight lifting while lying on your back. Otherwise, as long as you have a good snug fit, these would be great for working out - I've found them to be sweat resistant.

Gina, you can definitely use these to lift. I do. But if you aren't doing any boxing, I wouldn't recommend getting these simply because of the cost. If you are boxing, then definitely get these. It saves time not having to change gloves!

I use 4 of these for p90x workouts. Heavy equipment is no problem for these. They are great.

I am partially paralyzed and use these to build up strength with leg exercises. They're kind of 'poofy' but you CAN cinch them pretty tightly with the velcro straps so they dont slide up and down. They're larger and bulkier than ankle weights which are a pre-set weight though. I think for running or walking I'd prefer something a bit more sleek. These are perfect for my stationary exercises, but I don't think I'd choose them for running.Just my personal preference. Hope this helps!

I use it for weight lifting exclusively when I'm using forearms and heavy grip actions....so I'd say yes, absolutely.

These aren't really made to increase your grip. They work good with curl bars and dumbells and I have done pull ups with them without much of a problem. You won't GAIN grip with these though

Really well, I'd say as good as a pair of dedicated wrist wraps. They work well for heavy bench presses, and squats (to help stabilize the bar). The straps are long, so they'll fit a variety of wrist sizes.

They are rated for 350 lb, and what I am lifting is about 250 lb. I would not try lifting over the rated 350 lb.

I would not use for free weights you sink to far into them like deadlifts and stuff , I would use just to put under cardio or free weight machines

I think these straps work well for any kind of pulling exercise/movement because of the added grip. I use to use gloves when lifting but I prefer straps by far. Hope this helped

I guess you could but they're specifically for heavy lifting in the weight room I would suggest getting some wrist wraps for boxing.
