Fun fact: Coan didn't write the Coan/Phillipi deadlift program, nor had ANYTHING to do with it. For shits and giggles he ran it once and didn't get anything on his deadlift
tried squeezing your glutes together hard? helped me with too much leanback, that and using a slight knee bend on heavy sets (as per Rippetoe's video on the press).
Aren't you a rock climber or something? I would have thought your hands would be like a vice!!
I use double overhand up to around 180kg for deads, then switch my right hand. I don't do anything except farmers walks, deads and dumbell rows for my grip and it'll never fail. (I've done a 380kg rack pull and held it for quite a while.)
That's all I could suggest mate...
Yeah was a rock climber, but I seem to do it every few months now (max) so finger strength benefits have gone. I find it's totally different from deadlifting and holding a bar anyway.
