Grow calluses The act of deadlifting will make your hands harder quickly Andrew , dont worry about it.

Welcome to the forum Andy.

Failed reps are no bad thing when you're starting out and trying to find your starting maxes. You've found them now, no more F's for a while.

Thanks mate, yeah will make sure I'm not getting any more of these for a while
