I am into week three on The Bridge 1.0 having come into it without much deadlifting experience. For a variety of dumb reasons I never did LP on my deadlifts. I’m doing the program pretty faithfully now though (although I admit that my assessment of RPE still needs work). My question is regarding my grip for deadlifting and rack pulls. I’m only at 200 lbs but find that my grip strength is limiting me. As I fatigue, I find that the bar rolls into my fingertips.
Should I use straps or is 200 lbs too light to consider straps? Would chalk help? Or should I just work on holding the lifts at the top a bit longer to train my grip?
Thanks for any advice.
