What type of weight lifting gloves should I wear?
I’ve been lifting weights for a little while now, but I’m getting these tough calluses that my wife doesn’t like. Also, my hands sometimes give out before my arms do. Would weight lifting gloves help?
Also, I don’t want to look like a meathead. I remember reading somewhere about these gloves that only fit on the inside of your hands – they’re more like leather straps that go over the inside of your knuckles. Anyone have any idea what this could be? Or have other suggestions for weight lifting gloves that aren’t so dorky looking?

What’s the difference between running shoes and weight lifting shoes?
I was looking online for some running shoes and came across weight lifting shoes and wanted to know what the difference was between the two. I run and weight and know that running shoes can better your performance by a ton when you run long distances but do weight lifting shoes do the same when lifting? If so how? Thanks to all who answered.

How should I go about beginning weight lifting?
Up to this point I have just been doing push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups in different hand positions, knee-ups, and dips. I have also been using the Perfect Push-Up.
I now want to get into weight lifting. Would it be okay to lift weights every other day or should there be a bigger gap? Can I do the same weightlifting workouts on days that I lift or must I do different workouts? Please explain.

What kind of weight lifting simulates a bench press that I can do without a spotter?
I like to go to the gym alone. I am trying to develop my upper body. I am an extreme novice and know nothing about weight lifting. I would like to do an exercise that develops the chest. But I don’t like to work out with anyone else because the weight lifters scare me. I don’t need someone pushing me to do something that will hurt myself. And I don’t want to be humiliated because I have trouble lifting the bar without the weights.
