Nice easy session tomorrow mate, I want you looking fresh for the cameras on Friday.

Plenty of good work still going on mate, deads seem to be moving on up nicely!!

Personally I wouldnt rate hook grip over mixed for deadlifts if the aim is the biggest deadlift possible, although if the aim is to improve grip strength then it wouldnt be bad way to go!!

Yoga?


thanks man. Yeah i think i needed to start getting used to heavier weights with the hook grip if only for the clean purposes. Maybe if i stick to it as far as i can and just swap to mixed grip for the top sets.

but then again, misha koklyalev seems to use it for his 400kg+ pulls as well Confused

Aye, yoga. It goes well with the hair.

A few of the guys who told me to start hook gripping my deads (to solve the over/under issue) have said that after 4-5 weeks of the heavy stuff, the pain goes.

You can also tape your thumbs.

dont know about the pain going away with the hook grips, seems to be the same to me Grin

mick, less than a month and i will close this rehab journal - hopefully i can then start working my way up again with some proper lifts Grin

Thing, thats ok mate, i am sorted with this one free class on tuesdays. And my wife has a spread of all kinds of dvds and stuff, she is really into it, but i dont think i would ever be able to do a full session on my own at home...

Good fronties dude. Good to see some rack pulls back into the mix too, they are returning to my training soon too (as part of the new plan!).
