 jerking is obviously great, Member 2521, 4141 posts SQ 235, BP 152.5, DL 282.5670.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | I'm planning on throwing in a little grip work, probably after my weekly deadlift session. I've heard static barbell holds are good, as is dangling from a pull up bar with a weight belt. I shall do the barbell hold double overhand, but should I use chalk for grip work? Or will I train my grip best if I make it as difficult as possible by not using chalk? And chalk for the hanging off the pull up bar or not? | ||
