I do. Last night I hung 40 pounds and did single arm dead hangs.

That's a good one, very tough too. One of my goals this year is to be able to do 10 weighted pull-ups with 45 pounds of added weight with a vest, with 3 inch mutant fat grips on the bar. After doing 10 reps, hold on to the bar for an additional 30 seconds

Good stuff. I also do single arm pullups on rings.

The single arm pull-up is one elusive feat I have not managed to capture yet. It is impressive. Very Bruce Lee-like.

On the rings, it's tougher, so I typically will lower one ring to about the bellybutton and put two to three fingers on it so I don't use it as much.

I've never trained grip. It was kind of Incorporated into my regular training by doing heavy weights without straps.

I'm a grip freak. What's a strong man without a strong grip?

I use heavy grips (200# and 250#) and do push ups on neurogrips. I also don't use any lifting straps.

yea I do hangs, only double overhand grip unless maxing or doing rack pulls, only use straps for rack pulls.

also like to do farmers walks.
