    I do. I've never done mixed grip. Whether it's rational or not, I'm far too paranoid about bicep tears. This paranoia was only increased when I saw a guy tear his left bicep last August. One thing to see on a youtube video, another to see it in person.

    Wow.

    I wonder if he could do more with mixed grip.

    Regardless, that is very impressive. Not only because of the weight lifted, but because his thumbs must have been in so much pain.

    Am I the only one that literally doesn't think hook grip hurts and never has hurt. I admit I suck at it and the most I ever pulled hook now was 585 but it still doesn't hurt hardly at all.

    He has done more with mixed grip (920/417.5) but I really doubt the grip had anything to do with it.

    The vast majority of people can pull more with a mixed grip than with a hook grip. I myself can pull 90lbs more mixed than hook.

    This is because the hook grip hurts, especially with a lot of weight.

    Obviously, all the heaviest ones are hooked grip. Who would pull double overhand in a competition?
    637/390tng/615 - belt/wraps, best gym lifts.
    600/370/600 - best competition lifts.
    575/330/560 - best competition lifts at 181 raw.

    I don't think anyone would ever do DOH in competition. I personally was just curious to see some training videos of DOH because that grip strength combined with deadlift strength is pretty sweet...just in general

    I tore both biceps doing mixed grip. Whatever hand is supinated tears. One was minor the other completely tore off and required surgery to reattach.

    Because of that I trained to pull with a hook. Just last night I did 620lbs with hook and my grip never felt like it was going to fail. Once you get used to the pain (I also tape my thumbs) it is easy peasy.

    My thumb just goes numb... I dont really feel any actual pain. But Im nowhere near as a strong as you guys, but I pulled 455 hooked no problem. But I also never bothered learning mixed grip when I was starting out. So I didnt immediately have to figure out how to hook 500+ lbs when I decided to learn it. It was a natural slow progression with my dead lift progression which probably makes it easier.

    Im pretty sure George Leeman is a hook grip puller as well. He was the American record holder at one point. So I dont think the grip itself is going to be a performance detriment.
