Since I have been lifting weights, my drumsticks are destroying my hands. I use Vic Firth 5an (acrylic tip). Anyone have ideas for better drum sticks or ways to help my hands from getting blisters?

any help is appreciated

    do you use gloves when lifting weights??

    and is it just that the calouses on your hands are softening up? or are you hands acheing and changing the way you hold your sticks due to fatigue?

    i dont use gloves for either, hands dont hurt, started getting blisters on my thumb and pinky but only one hand. It is probably sticks changing due to fatigue
