At what point do you switch to mixed grip on deadlifts? And are there any benefits to doing double overhand, besides not tearing a biceps?

Never.
Mixed grip is a shit tier grip. If your baby hands aren't strong enough to grip the bar then swtich to hook grip.
Never mix grip unless you're competing in a lifting competition and NEED to move the maximum amount of wait to win.
Blake Rivera
It does allow you to move more weight though.
I was thinking of getting some chalk for the grip, so I can keep reaping those sweet forearm gains.

Don't do that, do this instead:

When your grip strength becomes the limiting factor. You may also want to consider the hook grip although this takes more time to get used to (since you're quite literally destroying the nerve endings in your thumbs).
Joshua Wright
Yeah well it fucking works, would you stop breathing if he told you that it's good for you?

>destroy nerve endings in thumb
Sounds a bit extreme. Are there any side effects to doing this?
Joshua Richardson
It is what it is.
Christopher Rogers
You won't be able to finger your ass or play the guitar.
Now tell me. Is the trade out worth it for you?
Jose Evans
Just use straps nigger.
Mason Bennett
How do I get huge visible veins like this man?
Jason Howard
But can i finger a girls ass?
Carson Rogers
Of course you can, the finger's still there.
Ryan Cook
Stop lying to him, I used hook grip for a long time and my thumb disappeared and only comes out when I deadlift.

Whenever you want.

Not for a deadlift really.
Hook grip does not work well with deadlift type movements, they're too slow.
Michael Thompson
You fool, don't tell them! My collection of thumbs collected from DYELs attempting hook is the only thing that still drives me forward.

Kind of a big deal user.
Bentley Perry
At the point where they bar starts to rotate out of my hands during the lift.
That is anywhere between 140 and 210kg, depending on shit I don't even understand.
Juan Cooper
Why not do low handle trap bar deadlifts?
I find it much easier than double overhand straight bar, atleast for heavier (for me) weights
