How to Hook Grip for powerlifting - The Active Lifestyle Personal Training
Hook grip is a great way to lift more weight with a double overhand grip.
Hook grip means that you don't have to progress to using a mixed grip (one palm under / one palm over) when you are using heavy weight lifts like deadlifts and can help avoid future imbalances.
To hook grip, you place your hand on the bar and wrap your thumb around the bar first, before closing your fingers over the top.
