HOW to Tape Your Thumbs for Hook Grip:

1. Start with a general roll of athletic tape, ripping it down the center, forming two equally wide strips. We generally recommend using about eighteen inches of tape, however you can always go up or down accordingly based on individual thumb size and preference.
2. Place the tape on the underside of the thumb with the excess hanging off the back towards you.
3. Keeping the thumb knuckle bent, lace the tape around the thumb once, working your way up vertically.
4. Now that the tape is at the top, wrap the nail bed and continue covering the thumb forming a figure eight or X pattern on the underside of the thumb. There should still be enough tape to retrace the previous steps once more, giving you two to three layers of tape over the thumb with exception being the open gap on top of the knuckle joint itself. It’s important to keep your thumb slightly bent while taping for the hook grip and to leave space on top of the joint. This allows your thumbs to stay mobile with no blood flow restrictions.
5. Finish by wrapping the excess tape around the back as to not tear off prematurely while rubbing up against the barbell.

If everything went well, you’ll find that when you grip the bar, the index and middle finger has ample surface to grasp on the top and side of the thumb along with the skin of your taped thumb free from abrasion
