I wish I was at the point of needing a belt for my top DL sets. My grip fails me way before my back.

Yeah, I have some, and I can do a lot more weight with them, but I'm really trying to keep the grip building aspect of my deadlifts. I really need to get some chalk.

great ideas.

Farmer's walks really helped my grip... walk around holding some big dumbells for 3-4 sets... great grip work and a bit "GPP"ish you could say.
