I used to do a switch grip with hook grip for heavy deadlifting. Then I saw that Rip didn't coach that at the cert last fall, so I asked him about it when we were there. He basically said there wouldn't ever be a weight I couldn't lift with a switch grip alone. He also implied that if there was, my grip needed some work.

I can't see Becky Z's thumbs so this comment isn't aimed at her.....but seriously. None of you deadlift with a hook grip?!?!

So far, so good.
Try a 30+mm bar with very smooth knurling.
Ah.
