Ripped the hands off myself tonight

[DCI]

Was doing DL's tonight and was lifting heavy going for a PB of 360lb's and tried it last week but my grip left out so this week I made sure that wasn't going to happen. I got the grip but it has ruined my hands. Anyone else done the same

I use straps when I go for my heaviest sets

[DCI]

Yeh, I had a set of them but they seem to have disapeared.

[austinite]

My hand is one big callus.

I did the same last night when I hit my new PB on deads. Even with straps I pulled every callous off my left hand.

im the same way, my grip gives out before my back. i like to have my hands facing a little more toward the floor and ceiling so when i lift the bar it tightens them

[Honkey_Kong]

You know, if you use these, I won't say a thing....

[Capebuffalo]

That's why I only hold with my pinkey fingers.

Versa grip. Worth their weight in silver.

I haven't deadlifted in 2 years. What's the point unless you compete in deadlift?

I dont deadlift for power. Everyone I know stops at the downswing then starts the next rep. What I do is slow down and barely touch the floor then go into the next rep. I keep the weight down as well Im just in the gym to bodybuild at this point.

You have to build the callouses. It takes time and every lifter who has been in it a while will have the hands to prove it

True that man. I was with a friend tonight and showed them my hands they were shocked haha. At the callouses and the fact my hands have had the skin cleaned off them.

I used be the same but the last couple of weeks I've been pushing the weight just to see what I can get out of it.

[DCI]

Shredded again wooo

[DSM4Life]

I use straps which helps but only on my heavy lifts. The one thing my bf hates about me working out is how rough my hands are. We all know being jerked off with a calloused filled hand is no picnic.

[DCI]

Lol, DSM, you haven't been saying much lately but it has been funny man I prefer to try and not use them and the fact I lost them doesn't help either.

[SEOINAGE]

never had that happen, never held more than 500 lbs though. My bar is pretty rough, it's plenty painful, but never had it bleed or remove any skin.

[DCI]

Hasn't bled at all. Just shreded some old skin.

as long as you aren't rippin and bleeding all the time then you aren't a *****. Just keep it up and you'll be plenty used to it. Don't resort to gloves or hooks or straps. You want face crushing grip strength too right?

[DCI]

Yeh, hence why I haven't ever used strapps even in the last few weeks of pushing myself my grip has gotten better. For a while I was only doing one weight Dl'ing to strengthen my back because I damaged it badly a couple of years ago pushing myself so only now do a feel properly comfortable to push it on again. It is great. Ahh ya, if I was bleeding I know myself I was doing something wrong.

[DSM4Life]

As my pulls go up I really have no choice. I start to rip off my callouses which makes my hands bleed. I can't deal with that everytime I workout. When my sets get above 250lbs I put on my straps.

When the hands fail you just go for lip service..

Ahh ya, no can blame you for using straps when that happens man. Nasty shit when you rip your hands apart.
