Hi

i just had a minor surgery on my left "pinky" (little finger) and for a few weeks i will be unable to perform FL7 and RC7 as i can grip with the hand, any suggestion to alternetive exercises the dont require holding on tight to anything ? thanks in advance

Hi Stefan for the FL you can evaluate to use a sort of false grip and put your wrist on the bar if you are referring to PE ( I suppose), for the RC it is a bit difficult but also here you can consider a couple of deadlift straps, they help to take off some work from the grip.

Thanks ill see if i can get that to work...

If you can't get it to work Stefan come back and we will find another solution.

Hi The FL went ok but the RC7 is a no go grip wise, any suggestions ?

 

Alessandro Mainente

Have you tried the deadlift straps?

Stefan Nielsen

Yes but not much help there, still to hard on my finger, so i figured i just wait a few weeks..Did get the FL to work by using wrist/underarm for holding..Thanks for tjekkin up on it

I'm sorry about that, wen you do not have too much alternatives.
