I can still see my feet AND nob. Member 3153, 37 posts SQ 150, BP 95, DL 170 415.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq	I've always used a mixed grip but apparently I shouldn't be... I've never had any issues with injuries but my left side feels slightly bigger than my right which is apparently caused by mixed grip. What grip are you guys using?

what is everyone's fran time? Member 3986, 10443 posts SQ 340, BP 200, DL 400 940.0 kgs @ 129kgs Eq	Nothing wrong with mixed grip, i guess imbalances are possible though but cant see it being noticeable, I pull overhand in warm ups then put straps on, most strongmen on here will but if youre powerlifting and concerned about mixed grip then try hook grip

Has little understanding of the sugden Member 677, 11338 posts SQ 165, BP 125, DL 220 510.0 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq	I think it caused a (visual) imbalance in my back. I also warm up doh, then switch to mixed. However, since I ruptured my bicep tendon my mixed grip is the other way, so I'm hoping this may even out any imbalance at the same time as being safer on dodgy bicep.

It takes a bit of getting used to, and you'll likely always favour one side over the other, but it will minimize the imbalance. Alternatively, learn hook grip and pull like a boss.

I will continue this for as long as I can. Hopefully this will be forever but I somehow doubt it. oh yeah I also cant even fully supernate my right hand comfortably anymore. loal

I recommend the track - Slut Machine Member 6043, 955 posts SQ 350, BP 195, DL 350 895.0 kgs @ 150kgs UnEq	Bumpity bump.. As I start to slowly reveal new aesthetic properties I now have a very noticeable imbalance. My right side trapezius is far bigger through the middle section, so much so a degree of separation between it and the upper fibres is visible which is simply non existent on the left. Now I'm doing crossfit level repetitions I am using DOH straps and training my grip independently. Is the imbalance likely to rectify itself over time?

Member 5141, 4199 posts SQ 300, BP 180, DL 350 830.0 kgs @ 130kgs UnEq	^^ if its a noticeable difference it is more likely to get worse over time as your stronger side will inevitably take more of the strain when you begin to tire.

I have the same problem. not due to being aesthetic. just down to massive imbalances.
