I start my Monday workouts with 5x5 deadlifts and I can pull more weight with bare handed mixed grip than normal overhand grip with straps. Do you think that mixed grip will cause imbalances in my back? Ronnie also did deadlifts with mixed grip.

if you are doing rows and pull ups/chin ups, imbalances will be negated

If you're worried, switch grip every set.

I doubt this is true overall. You may have had a bad set with straps and decided you were weaker with them. I'd bet 9 of 10 sets with straps you'll lift more than with mixed grip.

You should not do mixed iF you Arent a serious powerlifter

been doing 5x5 for 6 years now. so long as you maintain good form and don't ego lift, you're golden.
>he thinks anything less than 5x5 has enough volume for gains

It is 100% true. I've tried MULTIPLE sets with normal grip with straps and I've noticed that the straps make the grip too thick, if that makes sense. Maybe the material of my straps is too thick? I also have big hands and long fingers so having small hands isn't the issue.

I do mixed grip because I'm much stronger. Simple.

By the way guys, what are your thoughts on hook grip? Doesn't look convenient at all but I'm willing to give it a try.
