I need a glove that won't slip when I do push-ups on a hard wood floor. Will these work for that?

Hi Agb, I had no problem doing push-ups with these gloves on the gym's wood floor.

I use these when I do push-ups and have never had a problem. I suggest getting a medium so it doesn't rub against your palm too much as well

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.

There is a slight slippage. I think over time there would be a lot of slippage. I did not have any slippage when I did push ups on a throw rug that has low cut thread.

Go to a hardware store and try gloves on. I would go up if you aren't sure.

The bearings are spread out so in a way it would help-they sort of turn your fist into one more dense contact point. They are more protect your hand. They do not interfere w/ grappling more than any other snug leather glove would.

Yes, I have wooden floors also. It will stay in place while you exercise. I have an area where I exercise and the mat stays down until I pick it up, no slipping.

They's great for working in tight places where a wrench might slip and you'd normally bust a knuckle open without them. If you must punch something, they are rubber and would hurt the other guy more than you. If you want workout gloves, these are not what you're looking for.

I almost forgot about those... They're 'work gloves' and though I'm a machinist/mechanical Engineer, These gloves are more for general use to prevent slipping and perhaps more applicable to carpentry, (though I don't know if carpenters would agree). It's safe to say that they're 'general use' work gloves and help prevent slipping due to oily or sweaty hands.

I use these on a couch with a tile floor; I can move the couch, but with difficulty. I think they are designed to primarily keep the couch from sliding.

Hard to say. Mma gloves are rather low profile. You might not see much difference between these under wraps and the mma gloves themselves. Go to your local sporting goods store and try them on to be sure.

Yes- these should be great! These are thick and soft, but should stay on a gym floor without much slipping. The basketball can also be bounced on the spot without sending it all over the place.

They do right up on me, but I have thin hands. They get the work done, but I do have to wear regular gloves underneath so that the movement of the gloves don't bother me througout the workout. Hope that helps.

Absolutely not! This is one reason I have to have this kind of glove when doing yard work. They are perfect.

It doesn't slide on hardwood floor, but if you get really sweaty during a workout, your hands and feet will slide slightly on the mat. I take hot yoga classes, and even though I sometimes feel a little slip here and there, I have never actually had a problem. I think this mat would be absolutely fine for push ups. The mat is nice and thick, so it's a bit of a cushion on your hands. Also, if you're really worried about slipping, you can always lay a towel across the mat to soak up sweat and reduce sliding.

Yes, but you would get cold fingers as these are "fingerless". If you put gloves under you would have a fit problem and gloves over would not work. In my humble opinion.

Gloves are for pushing movements. You need Deadlift Straps, which you wrapped the bar with for pulling movements. I prefer the ones with a padded wrist wrap

It didn't have little rubber grips or anything, but I wouldn't say they were slippery. They aren't silky/satiny, so there isn't much slip. They're about as grippy as you would expect from cotton gloves.

I haven't use them for that but I think you should be able to keep them in place if you use the red thumb straps. I use them for lifting exclusively.

Hold rug? No- these pads keep my furniture from slipping when you get up or sit down on furniture that is on hardwood floors. My sofa has the front legs on my floor rug but the back legs are on the wood flooring. These keep those back legs from slipping at all! Hope this helps.
