Be carefull of repetative motion injuries. I have seen a few extreme cases of a persons dominant hand becoming locked in the supine position, with severe damage further up at the humero-glenoid capsule and exagerated developement of the rhomboid. The best solution to prevent re-occurance is to change grips frequently and use bi-lateral techniques. High intensity also presents some major problems, the most prevalent being severe doms of the peritinidium(taint), and a dislocation of the prostate coupled with and inverted sphinchter, so don’t pull too hard.
Real world application: Practice to perform. Chicks aren’t going to buy some max effort one rep crap.
What is your take on the hook grip in this context?
Do you use chalk?
What to do if you tear open a callus?
Will cycling a convential with a sumo stance prevent pattern overload?
So many questions…[/quote]
That chalk comment made me physically cringe. shudder

I can’t believe that despite the many sincere attempts to help this poor man, no one has addressed equipment. I reccommend leather, fingerless gloves. If they are new, be sure to soften them up with some saddle soap before using. Oh, and I would stay away from wrist straps. The injury potential is just too great, and we are trying to work on our grip strength, aren’t we?
