What it concludes

• Taking the bar lower in the hand on the fingertips prevents the bar from rolling and tearing calluses.
• Pulling the slack out of your grip before initiating the lift ensures tension is maintained and prevents roll.
• Laying the thumb parallel to the bar when using a hook grip provides more length and surface area to grab onto.
