I think he's referring to Mixed grip, not hook grip......I hope.

And people tear their biceps when they try doing the deadlift too fast with mixed grip. Calm yourself down and make sure the underhand grip is hanging.

Tears result when guys forget to have the underhand grip straight and have a slight bent/curl to it.
