Awesome vid.

Never understood why someone goes over/under grip when they're using straps. It's pointless.

Used to when I was a wee little strongwoman. People have to learn the hook grip.

If you're using straps you should go double overhand. I agree nothing beats a hook grip but most people here in the US have no idea what that grip is unless they train somewhere that has olympic lifting.

I totally agree. I'm a wily one, so I taught myself the hook grip. Couldn't really tell you why people go over/under with straps.

 

[Rottenrogue]

I go over under with straps.I always have.It is a much stronger feeling for me.

There ya go. Also. I can't get the straps tight enough on the bar unless I go double overhand.
