Yesterday, I hook gripped well over that for 3 reps using the setup and method you talked about. No idea if it'll hold up at 1 RM weights, but I'm guessing it probably will. Thanks.

My double overhand grip got much better by doing behind the back barbell forearm curls. Use a barbell on a flatbench, racked. Grab it behind ur back, palms facing the bar and arms about shoulder/deadlift width apart, light enough weight to do about 8-10 reps. Open your hands and Let the barbell roll down your fingers then curl your fingers into a fist then curl your hands flexing your Forearms. I do these after Deadlifts and my hands have become hydrolic clamps lol

Would this be considered more power lifting specific? Or would a looser grip be applicable to oly lifts as well. Genuine question because I’ve never seen anything from Olympic lifters about having a looser grip on the bar and they’re the ones using it the most.
@R3FL3XSN1P3R3 жыл бұрын
I don't think you'd want to internally rotate on the Oly lift pulls. Olympic lifters don't miss lifts on grip, so there's no need for them to maximise the grip like this. You also need more active wrists/forearms/arms in an Olympic pull.
@sranradojcic47883 жыл бұрын
In oly lifts its even more important to keep the hands relaxed, it gives you way more power in the second pull and avoids the dreaded arm bend in the pull. Also most chinese and russian lifters coach internal rotation for pulls and lockouts. In pulls it keeps the bar more vertical and close and in overhead lockout it makes for a much more secure position on the traps

I find it easier to get that “lowest point” hook much easier on a Rogue Power Bar as opposed to a deadlift bar. The smaller girth of a DL bar gives me the issues of “over hooking” and I do experience the bar roll. The slight increase of thickness in the power bar actually forces me not to overbook.
@ManRay972 жыл бұрын
I know this comment is 5 months old, but I hook grip differently when I use a deadlift bar. I don't have to focus as much on internal rotation and reaching across/horizontally on the bar.

That reminds me of how Oleksii Novikov grips the bar with straps during deadlifts. He loosens the straps to let the bar hang low in his hands. To the point his fingers barely make contact with the bar. That actually makes him lock the knees with less bar travel compared to a "normal" grip where the bar travels higher. Some people find this controversial. I think he's just smart.
