Anyone lift with a mouthpiece?

[hmatthews50]

Is there any benefits to lifting with a mouthpiece such as strength gains and endurance

I use one with heavy deads as I tend to grit my teeth even when I try not to. I am used to them as I use it all the time in sparring, so the breathing is easy.

The benefit is teeth that aren't ground down or broken.

Not necessary unless you are lifting and moving extreme weights and have the tendency to really apply pressure to your teeth.
