speedy Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Before this post and reading that section of the book I always thought that your hands would eventually build a resistance to the ruffness they face when doing this workout. After hearing these comments from people who clearly been doing this for awhile, I take it that is not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the skin can still stay tender as the knurling rubs against those callouses, which does burn. This can take many years to subside, but I've often seen this in older men whom have used there hands in damaging ways for the majority of their lives.
