SeNoLD Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Do you consider double overhand deadlift to be serious exercises for developing grip? Could you help me find the best deadlifts in this style? 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jermiah Merciconah Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I think thumbless Double Overhand is great for building grip, Its how Kirill Sarychev built his massive grip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the gym of Thor Björnsson. It was after we competed at their powerlifting meet So we show him the strongman circus dumbbell. Dude picks it up from the floor like a peanut. Hafthor couldn't do it with one hand. Then he picked it up thumbless. That was something to see 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also standing with the farmer's walk implements for time is insane forearm pump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamTGlass Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 That.Was.Awesome! David you are lifting double overhand more than 99% of the people who will comment this post on can lift- this is a world class display of grip- maybe grip feat of the year. Absolutely magnificent- I do not know any one who is your body weight who can equal this lift. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like the Hercules hold I did in a comp last month. Which probably gave me my biggest pump ever. 107.5 kg per side. Somebody tried to shake my hand afterwards and I could move my fingers lol Edited November 1, 2021 by Terry Gripperaddicted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anemptybox Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Hulk strength as usual! I might be misremembering but I think I read (not seen a video) that Chris James did a similar weight, anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Savage Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Terry Hollands said on here he had either done 340 or 360, that's the most i've ever heard of. A few strongmen have done 300 on video. This is very difficult to compare though without using the same bar as there's a huge difference between bars. For example I remember Steve (mobster) lifting 220kg one handed (no hook grip) on a bar in the gym, lesser quality bar, doesn't spin much, maybe slightly bent, then i think 151kg at the European championships because it's an Eleiko bar that's tough as hell because the spin is crazy on it. Deadlift bar is also a good bit easier than typical, thinner, doesn't spin much, bendy etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the other guy, it seems, the bar does not rotate or something else is wrong, because when you cling to your legs, the load increases too much for the bar to be held 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hitching is definitely something I never could have done with double overhand. Hard thing with doubleoverhand is that its so different on different bars as other said.

Florian Kellersmann Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 David, that was a phenomanal lift! These kind of lifts are hard to compare because if the bar isn't straight, it does't rotate out of your hand. So 290k with a straight bar is aweseome. The bar in the one video above doesn't look straight for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
