Mixed-grip deadlifting - the Tuscherer view
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyLgClmzTYU Really interesting video by Mike Tuscherer on why he believes you should mix grip all your sets (even warm ups), not alternate your sup/pronation and even use this same sup/pronation on accessory work such as SLDL's.

The Skogg System

Congrats to Andy Murray
To top off a golden Summer for British sport and Andy's own recent Gold Medal, now he's a Grand Slam winner! First British man for 70-odd years..... I wonder if he'll finally break the drought for British players at Wimbledon next year?
