I personally think it's retarded
It's a great way to get your throat crushed if you lose grip
Bulldog grip or nothing
I don’t use it on bench lol. Not trying to break a rib
On overhead press it’s the shit tho
I only use suicide grip on skull crushers
I also lift heavy and butter up my palms
Hook grip on everything even my steering wheel
I wish i knew how to fkn hookgrip
It’s not that hard. Check out Cailer Woolam
on my 480 pull two days ago I felt a pop in my bicep so I’m switching from mixed to hook. Today I hooked 405 for a double and no issues. I’ll link his vid
yeah I've watched a bunch of stuff about it but no luck, I'll give it another shot
i just don't feel strong with it, like it doesn't lock
and slips out when i go heavier
Chalk?
nope
don't have any
Ah yeah, get some chalk it’s cheap. If gym doesn’t allow powder then use liquid
home gym 👌
I’m transitioning to more oly lifts. Anyone have experience competing in Olympic weightlifting?
I compete with the barbell every time I snatch.
I've no experience with competition but I'm somewhat competent with the lifts
My sister competes in Olympic weightlifting
We train together often
I don't have experience competing but I'd definitely say finding a coach is a requirement
My friend is a competitive one but he’s not /our guy/ yet
I want to clean 140kilo
When you lift at a crossfit gym and it's the open.
Got to lift outside as if I'm the idiot.
@Fox yeah CrossFit boxes aren't very accommodating to people not doing their particular course. I have one right next door but they only have 1 hour 2x a day of "open gym" so instead I travel 30 min each way to get to a good barbell gym.
True. I love being apart of the box. I catch a lot of shit for not CrossFiting but I am also know everyone and make great friends doing so.
That first post-conference workout is painful. No more off days!
Haha, if/when we get an IE compound I assume there will be tons of squat racks
All members must preform back squats before continuing with any other exercise.
405 back squat mandatory
All reps are to he counted as "One, Mr. Rippetoe. Two, Mr. Rippetoe."
The dudes in the back talking about my lift as I’m doing it threw me off some. I think I had three more
