Maybe I'm in a bad mood this morning because I decided to go to my schools gym instead of my normal gym, only to realize I forgot my student id. They apparently have a strict policy on not letting you in without it. Unfortunately again for me a girl who looked like she ate 2 other girls was working. So no charm was getting me in unless I had a cow to offer as a sacrifice.  |
I dunno about Dokk, but I only use straps for deads, and only on the work sets. Personally, I do want to build stronger grip, etc. so I go normal grip up to about 225-250, but I am deadding 315 right now and my grip doesn't keep up. I find the over-under grip incredibly uncomfortable and it distracts from my lift. I can use a hook grip at 250-275, but it's a struggle and I'm lazy, so I go normal grip on my warmup sets and straps on my work sets.
