Daily reminder that if you deadlift with same handed grip you're doing it wrong
who needs forearms anyway? fuck grip strength right
you should warm up with double overhand for easy/convenient grip training, I don't even have to switch to mixed until 190 now
Daily reminder that doing OHP this way is cheating half of your reps.
>B-b-but my functional strength!
Stay mad pleb.
>>36351684
people do this?
>>36351684
>not doing mixed grip OHP
i can tell you're a weak fag
>>36351684
>Mixed grip OHP
What the fuck.
Today I lifted 2pl8 for five reps.
Last week I only managed three reps. I've trained only with overhand grip.
The gains are real.
>>36351661
hope that's kg or else you're fucking weak
>>36351722
just fyi you shouldn't let your grip be a limiting factor on your deadlift progress
do double overhand until you can't, then switch to mixed/hook/straps, and do extra grip work if you're really worried
>>36351728
c'mon fampai
>>36351684
>mixed grip OHP
>>36351654
Use hook grip pussy. Or straps. Enjoy your bicep tendon.
Mike T believes if you pull mixed tgrip then you shouldn't always do the same hand over and the same hand under, and always use mixed on every single set, including warm-ups.
This is to strengthen the ligaments and tendons and muscle as it adapts to the additional strain, so that injury risk is reduced.
Seems logical
>>36351762
not the only reason
also some minor difference in rotational force on the spine. Long term this can get gnarly (apparently) if you never switch supinated hand
>same handed grip
yeah whatever the fuck that is
>not using straps
I don't give a fuck. I'm not here to train my forearms, I'm here for legs/back. Why should I let retarded grip strength limit my liftf?
>>36351802
Because the deadlift is also a grip exersise.
I bet you train bench press for only chest too.
>>36351789
Cool. I've never seemed to have an issue with grip so I'm not too worried. Granted I only pull 180kg.
I have to pull on the smooth part if the bar if I'm doing sumo and never have a problem with grip.
I always do double overhand
Am I special?
>>36351802
>straps
>having such shitty grip that it limits your diddylift
>not getting joocy popeye forearms
Not making it
>>36351821
>Because the deadlift is also a grip exersise.
Nope. I have farm walks and weighted pull-ups for that shit. Deadlifts can fuck off, I already have my entire body engaged to care about wrists
>>36351823
>180kg
Way more than I can pull overhand, my max overhand is 225lbs, after that I'm always mixed. My forearms are shit
>>36351802
if you can't double overhand 3pl8 then you can't call yourself a man yet
>>36351823
that's cool, I need the knurling personally but then the only time I pull sumo is with a normal stance and hands inside for weightlifting assistance
>>36351841
I literally never have pulled mixed in my life and my grip has just followed suit
Try that
>>36351802
>I'm not here to train my forearms
thanks for telling us you don't lift
>Pulling anything but conventional
>Pulling anything but double overhand
Literally weaker than a toddler.
>>36351802
100% agree with you
You can train grip separately
>>36351839
t. Chicken legs
>he uses the bar
Plates-only deadlift or go home.
>>36351933
>mfw I do literally five to six sets of plate deadlifts every session because I have to load the bar from the very ground.
>>36351895
>isolating forearms
THIS MEME DIED YEARS AGO!
>>36352024
I'm not"isolating" them you nonce
I do a ton of grip work, have great grip strength (doh 500lbs no problem), and big forearms. Just not gonna let tired hands get in the way of my deadlifts
Griplets in this thread
>>36352068
double overhand?
>tfw you can deadlift 95% 1rm double overhand without straps, belt, hook, or chalk
It's weird when your grip isn't the limiting factor. I never used straps, and I haven't used mixed grip since I started lifting again
>>36353209
I can guarantee you without a shadow of doubt that you just can't deadlift if this is the case
>>36353209
How much weight do you deadlift?
>>36353226
My 1rm is just shy of 4pl8. I can do 365 without anything. Slips a bit but pretty easy to svoid that if I just chalk up
>>36353236
Honestly haven't tried without anything in a while but I pulled lmao 3.5 pl8 with nothing like a month ago
I use chalk and hookgrip 95% of the time otherwise. With grip work being the other 5%
>>36353243
I mean it's possible that you just have inhuman grip strength, but chances are you could improve your form a little. Would be interested to see a form check of you doing both doh and mixed/chalk
I mean, in my experience I can double overhand 190 with chalk, but as soon as I switch to mixed I go above 230 (kg)
Do you mix grip bench?
What about pull-ups?
Bb curls?
Squat?
Then why the fuck are you mix gripping deads, fucking retard?
>>36353264
>honestly haven't tried without anything in a while
Sure thing familiarm. dat dere 2pl8 max
>>36353273
Because none of those other lifts require the amount of grip strength that deadlifts do
>>36353267
I tried mixed for one working set a couple weeks ago and it felt so odd to me. Maybe I'm just out of practice. I used to strictly use mixed but I switched to hook and really trying to clean up form and inconsistencies this time around
Also I use wl shoes during max sets now because it really helps my form and stability
>>36353273
Are you literally retarded?
>>36353322
you have very strange customs family, but whatever works for you
>>36353341
Are YOU?
>>36351846

>>36353351
Honestly comes down to a lack of mobility without them. Can't really achieve that strong bottom position (no homo) without them. Same reason I do like an hour of warming up and squats before deadlifts now
Ultimately I'd like to learn weightifting but I'm not Chinese and don't have a coach. At least I'll have a strong pull if either of those ever changes
>>36351732
A skeleton could double overhand 190 lbs. I've double overhanded 335 and I'm DYEL by /fit/ standards.
>>36353424
kg*
I've switched to hook grip, and not looking back. It doesn't hurt if you work your way up and do it right. It's like using straps without having to use straps.
>>36353424
>by /fit/ standards
You mean everyone squats 4 pl8 and diddlies 5 pl8 on their first day at 150 lbs? You do realize the "standards" are nothing more than a bunch of skinny fat faggots from other boards spouting shit, right?
>>36353154
Yes
>>36353321
If you can't grip something with your little bitch baby grip, maybe you're not meant to lift it, ever consider that?
>>36351644
or maybe you're just a faggot with no forearm strength
>>36351684
>tfw i press with a reverse or mixed grip because of a torn labrum
>>36355690
pls explain how. I have a bankart tear and I cant press or bench without pain :(
>>36351644
>Wanting to snap your bicep.
>>36353456
sure buddy, nice back pedalling
>>36351644
>same handed grip
you meant double overhand?
if you don't even what it's called I doubt you oughta criticize it
other than that I prefer mixed myself
>>36351644
I do the same for Bench, works a lot better and is far safer
>double overhand for warmup and then hook grip for whenever overhand is failing master race
don't even talk to me, foul knaves
>>36351661
Switch at 255lbs, homie hold up with that sticky ichy.
>>36351644
except most of this board uses shit form and egolifts so they will likely tear their bicep the second they get beyond babbyweight on deads
>>36357175
What is hook grip?
>>36357453
it's google
>>36357453
just like overhand but you place your thumb so that it's nail is between the bar and the middle finger
>>36353398
yeah because half of /fit/ cant even deadlift 3pl8 in the first place
>>36353273
>Do you mix grip bench?
>What about pull-ups?
>Bb curls?
>Squat?
Terrible examples.
Deadlifts do not require elbow flexion or extension which is why it's OK to use mixed grip. You'd know that if you had ever stepped foot in a gym, let alone pull 3pl8 or more.
If you are worried about muscular imbalances caused by external rotation of the "underhand shoulder" and internal rotation of the other, just switch your mixed grip every training session.
>>36353273
this>>36357816
also deadlift is the only pull heavy enough to be limited by grip strength
>>36351644
Also if you do mixed grip make sure to switch hands around every set or else your arms will start looking dumb in 6months or a year
>>36351722
Mfw i took 2 years off lifting
Still did 4pl8 +@35 on each side. Weak fucks here should just give up.

Why are you so mad. He didnt imply that its lbs or are you a newfaggot and dont know caladan? What a dipshit
>Not hook gripping it
lmao
>>36351732
This.
I go double overhand up to 275 but then switch to mixed. I ditched straps all together but it's because I only lift 375 max and don't feel it's justifiable. One armed deadlifts really helped grip strength for me. Same with krock rows.
Trained my diddy from 350 to 410 in a year without switching my hands on mixed grip. How fucked am I?
>>36356996
rofl backpeddling, you are a moron, he never ever implied it to be lbs so how can he be backpeddling you stupid fuck
