i won't even look at a strap until i start making some serious weights...

i'm shooting to hit 350x5 on deads with no straps, and a double overhand grip in about 6 more weeks...

if i can do that, i will then maybe buy some straps... but i have failry good grip strength at the moment, and don't want to short change myself prematurely...

I respect that alot. I know I sacrificed alot of grip strength when I tried in high school because of reliance on them.

I know better now and my forearms got alot bigger and stronger because of it... go as long as you can without 'em.

I will say that depending on goals.. you'll build a bigger back faster with straps

double overhand for 5 reps of 350 ... quality in my book.

I "grew-up" on the mixed grip... double overs are something that i'm "weening" myself into, lol.... fuggin' tough.

No one is more into grip strength then me on this thread. I train my grip more then anything else. I have all types of Heavy grippers, thunder rolls. and other grip training tools. Although your forarms and wrists can only do so much. BUt I agree. If you dont need them....dont use them. But I think they would come in handy in his situation.

Lmao you should see these guys to. Dont look like anything but can roll up a frying pan faster then I can roll a joint. Its sick. Same thing with lifting blogs. Looks so simple but Met RX has a powerlifting station at Arnold classic.. everyone thought they could do it but couldnt get close. SOME BIG BOYS too.
