Way to go on the rocking overhead squat, Lindsay!
The purpose to all this grip work and hanging work and carry work?
Strong grip = better shoulder/trunk stability
Muscles that run from your shoulders to your low back are needed to be able to use the butt really well (observational evidence: ever notice that people with “good” posture have a big strong butt and someone with poor [forward shoulders] type posture is almost missing a butt altogether?).
This is no mistake…
…and remember, a big strong butt and less of a gut indicates your stress/sex hormones are in a better balance. Also, not a bad thing…
