QUOTE(ascension @ Jan 2 2013, 10:47 AM) Did you do any grip training? Need some advise on deadlifts as my overhand grip gives way when i do anything above 100kg, have to do mixed grip for work weight. Feels so weird though. never did any grip training. did use straps though. lost them and didnt get around buying a new pair |

Well, the old adage, do more and it'll improve. My grip strength did improve, still doing deads raw, mixed with chalk. Weights that previously required mixed grip can now be done with overhand.
its a question of how fast your deads improve and how fast your grip catches up to it. |

The gym i go do doesn't allow chalk, and i tried checking Camp5 and they ran out of eco balls. Any other alternatives? I'm still doing raw though, just mixed grip.
