    Thanks ladies for the tips! I'll try no gloves or maybe different gloves. I just don't want to hurt my wrists because it's been hurting, only the right one, since Friday and the right elbow feels like something is pulling it.

    If your wrist is bothering you, you can try wearing just a wrist wrap and not a full glove. I have a structural issue with my one wrist and wear a wrap for support, but I don't like gloves. If it persists even after a few days of rest, go see a dr and get it checked out. It could be just some tendinitis (like tennis elbow).

    I'll look into wrist wraps. Thank you! I increased both my bench and barbell row today and the wrist isn't acting up as much. Yay!
