does it made a difference when u use both pronated grip or one arm pronated, another sulpinated for deadlifting?

well it effects your forearm strength.
just change it up.
i use that grip because my forearms are weak and it cant hold my deadlifting weight.

You will still get forearm strength from using a mixed grip, just make sure you change up which hand is turned which way every once in a while. Deadlifts are not for forearm strength so don't slack off of them because you want to work your forearms. If its forearm strength you want, work your forearms w/ wrist curls, grippers, etc. whatever floats your boat.

yea i didnt say yourn ot going to get any strength. i said i wanted even strength, even if i mix it up, it wont be even, so i start using non mixed grip.
and deadlift is a great forearm worker.. i dont know about size, but strength..
