My asshole is not watertight.

I was a bit surprised it tore as well. More to the point though, why the f**k would anyone want to hook grip that much weight. It's fine for a fast lift but not for a lift which takes a few seconds. I did a 235kg hook grip deadlift once, my thumb was like a bloody pancake afterwards! | ||

I did a 235kg hook grip deadlift once, my thumb was like a bloody pancake afterwards! I did a few hook grib deadlifts and made a pretty mess of my thumbs. My callouses are pretty horrendous though... not sure if filing them or cutting them is the best idea? | ||

 Trump will get another four years Member 126, 16707 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 225495.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | I use hook grip for heavy pulls. If you do it enough it stops hurting. Torn the skin off my thumbs a couple of times in the past but taping them prevents that. Although you risk the tape ripping or slipping off if you don't apply it properly. | ||
