Bodybuilder-strongman Stan Efferding dishes on his best form tips for developing a king-sized deadlift.
I use a mixed grip as it’s the most universally stable grip. If you have big hands or more specifically, long fingers, you can try an overhand grip but most people just can't hold heavy
weights that way. I never use straps but it’s not uncommon for good lifters to warm up with them to save their grip for heavy pulls. Others will use straps when doing reps so the grip doesn't become the limiting factor. Research shows that using a mixed grip instead of an overhand grip can help you get an extra rep or two when training.
