Fu I a never afraid to use straps if they are needed. Sometimes theres just no way around it. (I just stated this in my journal) If you are working your legs or back then why not use straps? You are not working your grip, you know what I mean?

Anyhoo....did you feel like puking afterwards. I always feel like that after leg day.

I see what you mean, but that's coming from a bodybuilding perspective. Someone that's training for strength (strongman, olympic lifting, or powerlifting) would never want to use straps. I use chalk when going heavy, because you're allowed to use chalk at powerlifting competitions, but straps are not allowed. Why would you want to train your grip seperately? You might as well training it during any movement you can, and then any other grip work would just be additional.

Not saying you would want to train grip seperatly per say, but if you are on your last rep and you can't hold onto the weight and you have more left in your back and legs you need to do that last set. So you get what Im saying?

Yeah I agree with ya D. Sometimes the ol' forearms just don't have that last rep in them.

I like holding everything with my bare hands. I personally wouldn't like to resort to using straps. I'll just take my grip to the limit. I can see where you are coming from though. It just isn't for me. Plus today I would usually work grip but I took my DB RDL's as grip work.

Thanks you vetty much. I feel like it lookes bigger as well. I've been clean bulking and added about 4 lbs of muscle with very little change in bf% since the other pics. I wish I had a hyper extension station at my gym.

I actually been doing them alot in the past, the old logs show. I stopped doing them because they felt weird on my knees one day. My left quad also felt a weird stretching when putting the weight on the right leg. I'll probably throw them in sometime soon though.

Yeah sometimes it does feel like your knee cap is going to pop out huh? haha gotta love that feeling! It helps me with all the sports I play though. They are fantastic for anything that has to do with sports. If you do happen to get back into them do so slowly.
