Thanks Tamara! (Sorry for being so tardy here) Well did my first meet with the hook grip. A local bench/deadlift event. Went 330, 350, 375. Looking back this grip did not leave me with the usual...

Thanks Andy. I ran a few cycles with the hook, so now I'll see how it works in a meet.

My neck hurts after watching that vid.

Congrats Tom!!!
