Losing Grip During Sets

Daniel Tapia 7 years ago updated by CJbear2016 7 years ago 1

Hey Marc, I've noticed when doing heavier weight pull exercises like deadlifts and I start to lose grip strength towards the end of my set.  The bar almost seems to roll out to my fingertips.  I've tried going with gloves, sans gloves chalk etc. with no real improvement.  Unfortunately this keeps me from going heavier and doing more reps per set.  Any idea what I can do?  Thanks!

I would recommend trying wrist straps. Or working your grip strength. Try doing farmer walks, monkey bars, pull ups, or using fat grips on dumbbells if you can. Anything that works your forearms. Dead hangs work to.
