Making progress! .. Deadlifts are getting hard for me now because I lose grip adding more weight .. anyway I can increase my grip strength?

Most of the time when I use double over grip my forearms give out before my back, so maybe try using an alternate grip? Or you can always get wrists straps to if you want to continue to use double over.

I had the same problem when I started, I use alternate grip (one palm facing towards you and the other away from you). My deadlift max is around 330lbs to 340lbs now and grip is not an issue anymore. Haven't seen you there in a while??

I've saved this routine for later once I am done my cut: http://www.t-nation.com/free_online_...ms_strong_grip

Yeah I tried alternate grip today and was able to do the 185. I will see if I can continue to increase the weight doing that.

oh and I have been going there earlier or later than you lately

Incline Bench: 150 lbs
DB press: 120 lbs (60 lb DB)

hmm your stats are almost exactly like mine.

weight: 170
Flat bench: 185x5
Incline: 150x8
DB press: 160 x 5 (80 per hand)
Squat: 225 x 5 (box squats)
Deadlifts: 225 x 5 - losing grip at reps 3 or 4, either get straps, stop wearing gloves, or improve my grip strength
