Re: Squats and Deadlifts
[ QUOTE ]
I have this problem big time and it's pretty much why I stopped doing dead lifts. After a while I felt like the limiting factor was more my grip than my muscles.

Use straps! There is no reason in the world to let grip strength limit the amount of weight or number of reps you do on any pulling exercise.
I understand that people want their grip to get stronger so a lot of folks don't use straps. But, if the choices are between my grip failing before I can fully tax the muscles I'm actually training or using straps so my grip doesn't give out prematurely, I'm using straps 100% of the time.
