Community for Athletes - and their WOD protocols!
Straps or No straps
How do You do your Deadlifts etc when the grip fades. Do you use straps or not? I don´t now but sometimes it feels like I don´t want my weak grip to be the limiting factor. My back can take more! So..... opinions wanted. Hardcore CF= no straps or straps sometimes.

NO STRAPS!..........Why would someone want to pick up more weight than they can hold with out help.......I see the same guys use those straps for their pull ups as well......But its to be expected.....those same guys need help getting up the stairs......being able to deadlift 3x your body weight isn't great if you cant get your a@# up a couple flight of stairs without breathing hard........Stay Strong...Train Hard
