For a significant portion of it, I used straps for movements like deadlift and lat pulldowns where the muscles doing the movement were stronger than my ability to hold on to the weight.
This led to me having a relatively weak grip compared to the rest of my strength.
I wonder if this would have been a poor measure for me, due to having outsized non-grip strength.
