I have detrained so much on the pulls my hands struggle to hold even 255. I'm gonna have to start lower I guess.

[Mr. Bingley]

I've lost a lot of grip strength too

[Fred J]

My problem is that I have slacked off pulls and normal work and now the skin on my hands isn't toughed up anymore. I think the grip strength is still there. It's just painfull....wah wah!

[Meshuggah]

They say Grip Strength is a good indicator of Overall Health. What Grip Strength Says About Your Health

[Fred J]

Interesting read. I don't think my grip strength has changed much. The skin of my palm at the calluses has gotten painfull like it has softened up. I just need to do some regular pulls again.

I'm still hosting a sinus inf/sore throat or some shit. I pooped out after getting to 205 with the trap bar. Better than nothing.

Its a good thing you train, hope gets better soon!

[Tad_T]

You still got under the bar.

Hope you shake it off soon.
