if you use mixed grip, how do you deal with the fact you're developing horrible muscle imbalances, even if you switch things up, especially if you believe you're some kind of living proof (you're not)?
if you use double overhand, how do you deal with the fact you will never lift a real amount of weight?
if you use hook grip, how do you deal with the crippling thumb pain or being forced to tape your thumb or micromanage your calluses like a bitch all so you can say "hurrr i have a big deadlift"?
if you use straps or belts, how do you deal with the fact that you're a gigantic pussy that everybody laughs at behind your back?
there's no good way to grip a bar for deadlift. they're all shit.
But can you really deny that deadlifts are fun, that is reason enough to do them imho.

>being forced to put a condom on your thumb everytime you lift yeah nah

No one cares if you use straps in the gym except people on Veeky Forums
and none of you lift.. so who cares?
Jaxon Brown
Quit projecting your insecurities. If you don't want to deadlift go ahead and drop it, quit bitching at the people that actually enjoy doing it
Carson Hernandez
So what? Stop deadlifting and that's it, go be a crybabie somewhere else.

>caring what other people in the gym think about anything I've grown beyond such feelings
Adam Clark
What would you guys recommend for someone with really tiny hands? Are straps worth it?
Jacob Ross
Straps are totally worth it. I'd rather pull more weight than rely on my grip strength which isn't as important to me.
Dominic King
they are, just keep doing your warmup sets without them and you'll get a stronger grip
Camden Bell
I also have tiny hands and my limit is like 290 with double over hand (also when I stopped deadlifting). My hands are too small to try hook grip, and I've been rack pulling 350 easily with mixed, but all these fucking doomsayers are scaring me on the bicep tears and imbalances.
I'm ordering some straps partly because of my tiny hands.
Also I fucking love rack pulling holy shit
Logan Phillips
You can hook with tiny hands just learn to hook correctly; look at all the asian weightlifters with babby hands that pull huge kilos.

>giving a fuck about muscle imbalances
Caleb Flores
I'll have to try again but last time I gripped it I got a piece of my thumbnail hooked and that's it
Andrew Bailey
You can do it m80 keep your nails trimmed and your hands chalked
What kind of imbalances do you develop with mixed grip? I live me some mix grip when I get real heavy, both my and feel worked the same way. What is the deal?

When you post your stats overhand deadlift is hte only one that counts. Sorry, not sorry.

Sebastian Evans

Daniel Barnes
OP, try gripping it with your teeth If you can, you're just about flexible enough to shove your head back up your ass where it belongs
