When deadlifting, should I alternate mixed grips in order to maintain symmetry or use a hook grip? I am not a competitive deadlifter, but I do want to be strong in the lift. What is recommended by SFL for gripping the barbell for the deadlift for the noncompetitive lifter (besides double overhand no hook grip). I am thinking hook grip may be best especially since I have some athletic tape I could wrap my thumbs in if need be, but I would love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!
