what do you think gives more assitance... straps or a suit (deadlifting)

suit?? never seen a deadlifting suit?

I use straps when I go over 300lbs because my grip can't take it.. It has more to do with all the sets/reps I do to get to 300+.. By that time my hands are shot so I use both gloves and straps. If im shrugging I don't need it.

I also use a alternating grip sometimes, seems to help a lot.

link me to a suit..

It's used by IPF and WPO lifters when they lift.
I guess this question is dependent of the individuals weakness...

I know for me i could not pull what i do for reps without my straps. If your talking on back developement , wear some straps and get those last few reps .
