3 hours snatch seminar. Thumbs so wrecked from hook grip that I can't open my pistachio shells.

    doing a hook grip for a "stupid wide" placement like snatching always wrecks the skin at the base of my thumb, close to the knuckle...even after 20 minutes lol. Just rubs the skin raw...a 3 hour snatch seminar would BLOW.

    Our coach who competed this weekend had his thumbs wrapped in athletic tape for exactly this reason.
