it's a hook grip, mang. VERY different. if your thumbs are conditioned it's possibly even better than the over-under since your body is even.

It hurts though when you're not used to it.

Yeah, hehe.

I remember when I started hook gripping when snatching.

It hurt even when doing snatches with 80-90 lbs LOL.

Eventually you get used to it.

But you have to wonder about those fellas hook gripping a snatch of 440 lbs...

That's fcuking brutal.

Post by: MisterMagoo on December 01, 2008, 11:06:11 AM: my fingers are stubby, so it's hard to get a great hook grip. i usually use it on shrugs and the heaviest i've gone was 495 and holy shit lemme tell you that hurt. my thumbs were practically bent sideways. >:(

Thompson is a strong guy, but he's not even in the same league as Mikhail.
