i used to think straps were a handicap, but when your grip gives, you still gotta train so do what you gotta do imo. long term use is bad, but if it's to the point where it's affecting your overall lifts i say go for it

also grip strength training is underrated - so many guys get wrist pain cus they got weak grip

and wow weird, never knew 531 had a template where they make u do rows in between sets
It's just an added for those who want more pulling and back movements.

Speaking of 5/3/1, I've been doing front squats in replacement of back squats and pulling sumo. Loving the explosiveness I'm getting pulling conventional. I can front squat 245 now

Farmer walks are gold BTW. Thanks whoever mentioned it a year ago.
