Steven's ninja training gym (Rock Solid Warrior) shared this, and I thought there may be others in the community who would find it useful.

As ninja warriors, we put our hands through a lot—taking care of them is key. Check out our quick video—Coach Brett and Izabela walk you through proper hand care to keep your ninja strong and training! Daily & Post-Training Care
- Keep calluses smooth by filing them down regularly to prevent tearing using an electric callus remover or pumice stone
- Moisturize daily with a quality hand balm to avoid cracks
- Skip heavy lotions right before training—they can soften skin too much
- Wash hands after training to remove chalk and dirt that dry out skin
Rips & Blister Care
- Trim any torn skin (flappers) with clean clippers right away
- Clean with antiseptic, apply ointment, and cover with tape or a bandage
- Use healing balms like Burt’s Bees, Aquaphor, or ClimbOn to speed recovery
Preventative Tips
- Tape up any hot spots or sensitive areas before they turn into rips
- Keep hands balanced—not too dry, not too soft
- Use chalk for sweaty hands, and light moisturizer if hands are too dry
Taking a few minutes each day for hand care can make a huge difference in performance and comfort. Strong hands = strong ninjas!
