so a bit about me
33 with a long history of lifting behind me
off and on for the past 12 years ive lifted
so with deadlifting i have always done an over under grip
its the way i was taught and thats that
i know it goes against the grain but im happy to use wrist straps when i hit grip failure, i can normally go about 40-50lbs heavier
so i was watching some worlds strongest man and was amazed by the number of guys using an overhand grip with wrist straps
i tried it yesterday and fuck
i normally can get a single at 515lbs
with an overhand grip that flew up easy
i ended up working to 550lbs for a single
my grip failed alot earlier with overhand grip
but fuck im really with getting that number
has anyone else had this with there deadlifts?
