    Yesterday a guy was squatting a few hundred pounds ATG (his back started to round a little at the bottom. He didn't grip the bar which was resting between his thumb and his index finger. All his fingers were pointed toward the ceiling. A potential Darwin award candidate.

    Are you familiar without how Rip teaches the squat? as in, with a thumbless grip? and palms holding bar against back, NOT the fingers?

    Back holds the weight, not the hands.

    It doesn't matter! What's important is that I'm no longer shaving with the bar.
