As a climber, seeing people recommending this grip makes me nervous, reason being, in climbing, when grabbing a small hold which can only be grabbed with the finger tips called a crimp, a lot of people use this grip to gain better purchase but it can lead to higher risk to finger injuries if you're just not strong enough yet.
I couldn’t say about climbing, but the hook is the strongest grip in weightlifting. Every world record in the snatch/c&j has been done with a hook grip.
Cool to see, in powerlifting we prefer the first grip because of the tendency of the bar to roll with maximal loads
I was gonna say the same thing
Also a bit less rom, even if just .5-1cm
Very helpful. Great channel.
Thank you I appreciate it! 🙏🏼
Bro I've been watching your shorts for an hour now. Keep up the good work, thats amazing.

@MonroeMiller dope! If it works then it works 💪🏾
How do you even get a hook grip in a crimp
this is the most common grip in weightlifting, not using it is really bad
Gabriel sincraian says it's the opposite.
Because this crossfitter unfortunately doesnt know enought about weightlifting to be teaching.
Great tip..can you explain the wrist wraps and benefits ❤
Pressure in wrist make you stronger grip and also prevent your injuries
Where did you get your thumb grips
How to improve the strength of this grip
I have small hands what should i do?
Is this useful for pullups?
When doing pull ups just try to work on improving your grip. The hook grip is not ideal.
I think so but I think it's way more awkward and definetely not needed unless your pull up bar is made of ice
Thanks Stipe Miocic!!
I was confused until you said snatch and clean and jerk
Is it common for my wrist to hurt when doing this? Maybe I’m doing it wrong
Yes
Small details cannot go on unheard of.
Is it normal to lose the hook grip in the end of the lift?
Game changer
This grip hurts my calluses on my hands... Is that normal?
This is worse for deadlift you get more ROM in the bottom position
My hands are super small…I can’t hook grip 😢
Good way to tear calluses unnecessarily. Nice
If you're worried about calluses tearing don't deadlift to begin with all grips can tear your calluses
