Talk:Hook grip

Untitled

• The description from the quoted author Everett is misleading. If you hook your thumb under the bar, the weight will rest primarily on the pad of your thumb. In general, images of the hook grip on the web show the last segment of the thumb parallel to the bar. I hope someone with personal hook grip experience will add a precise description of what position the thumb takes and what parts of the thumb are pressed against the bar.
• defining a Natural grip and a Closed grip would be nice, and pictures too. LIMEY (talk) 04:25, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
• It is worth mentioning the risk of a bicep tear while using a mixed grip in deadlifting. Moreover, utilizing the Hook grip as a tool to mitigate these risks. Hmk0110 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:02, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
