I found grips that don't hurt

Hack squat machine
315 x 5 x 3

Zercher squat
225 x 6 x 3

Bulgarian split squats
30 x 8 x 4

whatnot

Reverse grip bench
135 x 5
145 x 5
150 x 3+2
Wrist extension hurts with pressure, but apparently only when pronated so supinated and semipronated grips are fine. Although later in the workout I found myself able to extend my wrist while pronated so it might just be a matter of stretching. Hope it goes away eventually though.

Neutral grip dumbbell bench
55 x 5
60 x 5
65 x 5 x 2

Tate press
25 x 8 x 4

Pendlay row
135 x 8 x 2
145 x 8
155 x 8

Shrugs
365 x 5
385 x 5
405 x 4
315 x 8
