Had to stop because of finger pain. Squatting hurts my finger sooooo much. I'm surprised that I'm limited on my squats and not on bench or deadlift...

I'm trying to figure out my best option for squatting. I might need to change my grip. I think I will do this next time at the gym with light weight to see what works best.
Sad face.

Bummer about the finger. Maybe try a thumbless grip? When I do thumbs around, I'm sort of compelled to grip the bar (i.e. my fingers naturally curl around it), but with a thumbless grip, I can sometimes get away with even flat hands. Then again, it's really hard to balance that on your back.
ReplyDeleteYea, right now I'm using a thumbless grip but I tend to wrap all my fingers around the bar. This somehow is putting a ton of stress on that joint. I'm thinking I need to do flat hands, but that makes me a bit nervous.
