The Mac Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Does anyone use a mixed-hook grip for anything? If so, how's that going for you?? Thanks in advance... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gollan Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 "Mixed Hook Grip", are you are referring to one hand over the bar, one hand under with the thumbs alongside the fingers? If so I use it for deadlifts. I alternate the hand that goes under the bar. The variation with my right hand being under is uncomfortable probably because I am up against the limit of the outward rotation of my right wrist and elbow. The left hand being under is fine. I continue to use this grip because it works (I've never dropped the bar). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdawg Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 if you're using a reversed grip, which is what i think you mean by mixed, you shouldn't need to hook grip also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
