It's easy to say "work on your grip strength", but that's not completely going to solve the issue in my case. I have carpal tunnel syndrome, and my job aggravates it daily, and will more than likely continue to make it worse for the next 20 years. (when I retire!) There's only so much I can do as far as that goes. Yes, strengthening my grip will help, but I don't think it will ever be where I need it to be for deadlifts, etc. I use 1-ton hooks, and I will probably continue to use them.
