lol bro

My hands are gnarly. My thumbs are tore up from high volume pulling using a hook grip.

Check the hook grip out.

Hook grip

Try it if you wanna feel some pain

I'm sure it originated in Olympic weightlifting. My grip feels rock solid when pulling with a hook. You will need chalk to pull it off and it will hurt at first.

Doesn't look as good in the picture but it was bleeding pretty good

all my calluses are on my fingers, i dont really hold the bar that far up in my palm when i deadlift, is that not common?
