Holds should help, but then, my holds are s**t, but mixed grip on deads is good for a lot more than I can actually lift. Tested it out on heavy rack pulls from about knee height. Think they help me anyway, as i get used to holding more weight than I can lift from the floor. | ||

Go see the doc about your hand, if it was caused by a break they might be able to do something about it | ||

he's got betty davis eyes Member 1684, 6001 posts SQ 250, BP 186, DL 291727.0 kgs @ 118kgs UnEq | When you do continentals do you do double overhand or mixed grip? I need to go mixed and switch a hand over. I find the axle a real struggle to hold on to DOH, but mixed is fine. Can clean and press much the same now. Learning to like the axle | ||

Learning to like the axle i tried both tonight failed them both pretty pathetic really as the weight was only 90kg! its all new to me but i hope with practice i learn to love the axle too | ||

Member 1819, 409 posts SQ 182.5, BP 150, DL 220552.5 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | unlucky with the max dead mate. Once you get over that hurdle id imagine 300kg should fall pretty soon after. Wait 3/4 weeks and get to your max attempt quicker on the day, no probs. | ||
