You might look into getting a cheapo wireless remote off eBay - will make life much easier!

My first thought was 'how would you press the button in this shot?'

Answer- tape it to the back of the bag and press it with your nose!

lol, otherwise use it in conjunction with the self timer - push the button, then drop the remote - actually, you may have to use your nose anyway, as with gloves on, I don't think you could push the button!

Since the question of shutter-release while wearing boxing gloves, has caused a bit of a stir..........the method that I used was thus: a Promaster brand cable release was employed, and the tip of the boxing glove 'thumb' was stiff enough to push the button !

Just for fun, here is one more photo from my gym series.
BTW - I'm 56 yrs. old.

Thank you, Shinobi.
I wish we could trade locations for a week........I'd love to be set loose in the U.K., to immerse myself in the historical sites, with a camera !
