After a while of working out, I feel that my grip is weak. I don't mean literally weak, because that isn't the case. I mean that it feels weak. Anyone else have this issue? Any input? I feel that even though I can deadlift 3x my body weight without a problem, I can go pick up some dumb bells and feel like I cant squeeze as hard as I "should" be able to. I feel that I should have the feeling that I could squeeze extremely hard, but instead I feel like my grip is weaker than before lifting. Maybe this is a stretching issue? What do you guys think.

Have you tried an alternating grip? I feel so much stronger grip wise doing that then forward grip. Haven't tried hook grip, but I hear it helps as well. Also maybe you just have reached a point where straps might be useful. Meaning you can literally deadlift more than you can hold, so that might help as well.
Farmers walks also help my grip incredibly, and j usually do them on my second back day when I don't deadlift. Phenomenal exercise and really functional.
