    Alternative

    If you're looking to compete as a powerlifter then it makes sense to train without any extraneous equipment as you'd be required to do in a contest.

    But if you're just looking to maximize your...

    Straps, hooks, grips, injuries...

    A long time ago I tried using lifting straps for back workouts. Almost instantly, I was aware that I was hardly using my forearms, and felt the weight literally pulling my wrist joint apart a the...
  • Straps are crap for the wrists. Like a noose.

    Other than crushing soft tissue against the bone and cutting off ciruculation during the set, and causing long term wrist damage, they also keep the forearms from stengthening and developing. Don't...

    I got something inexpensive at Big 5. I was like buying a new car. Once I started wearing it, I began to notice how many long time members of my gym were also wearing them.
  • Forearm issues and the "death grip" on lat pulls.

    I have some really annoying spasms in my right forearm, up to my elbow, which really gets in the way on back and biceps day. My rheumatologist (I can't even believe I have one) compared it to tennis...

    You can still go to any beach where the "muscle guys" hang out and see at 25% ready to fall over from being so top heavy.

    I put them with back. I like to lean forward just a little so i'm really squeezing my traps together, not just lifting them straight up. I liked the fixed handles on the Hammer Strength machine. I...
  • It seems a lot of the posts in over 35 have nothing to do with lifting?

    am i missing something?
  • As I get older, I am finding reps beat heavy weight...

    I am pushing less weight, but pushing it more intensely with better form. Any opinions on letting your "max" drop as you get, well, not younger?

    I'd probably know if I were.

    But I am pretty sure not. I am very self aware.

    It's a choice: both can be right.

    The traps are long, multipurpose muscles. If you are perfectly straight, you will work more along the peak, either side of the neck. If you lean forward, you are moving the focus down a little,...

    Definitely let me know how you like them...

    ...but everyone I've recommended them to really really likes them. And I know one of the guys in their video.

    Try these. Grippier (and cheaper!!) than Lynx.

    www.bigbackgrips.com

    They grip metal better than anything I've tried, and they have nice "cush" on bench, dips, etc. I think they're about 1/3 the price of the Lynx. They just come in black, but I...

    For your ripping rubber handles.

  • I see this was a long time ago, but these are much better.

    yah, they open jars, too. but they grip much better than those lynx things, which are overpriced. They will give you a really good back workout.

    Why are hands such a "man" issue.

    Here, if you're worried, use these: www.bigbackgrips.com

    It's not really gloves, just a rubber gripping pad. But they really work. I got mine at Muscle Beach. They have a chinning bar there that's...
