When Calluses Tear Off....How to Deal with

I explained to you a while ago how to take a little bit of gauze and some sports tape to tape your hands where the calluses are. Basically tape around your hand at the palm and around where the calluses are. First you put on a think layer of gauze. This is to keep the tape from sticking to your calluses. Then you lightly tape around all this. Just enough tape to provide a layer between the bar and your skin but not enough to interfere with your lifting. Some chalk helps with this as well in case the tape interferes with gripping. This does two things. It keeps calluses from getting ripped off because the friction is against the tape instead of the calluses and it is thin so it still allows pressure against the skin which develops the calluses and makes them harder. Your problem is not having calluses, it's having underdeveloped ones that rip off too easily. This doesn't happen to others as often as it happens to you.
