Trying something new, breathing was different. More "sipping" breathes, but was really winded after. Been training more core & weighed in at 266 lbs this morning 2 Quote

Double overhand lagging? Hold the hit longer. Double underhand lagging? Hold the hit longer. Braced bending lagging? Hold the hit longer. - bencrush

Goran Paulinič Posted September 29, 2019 Posted September 29, 2019 Congratulacion! That is close to carrying an injured or dead strongman. May have some use at strongman or other strength competitions. 1 Quote

I need to get my hands on a hefty sandbag someday too. In the meantime I've just been stacking plates on a loading pin and using that. I figure most of us on the grip board have loading pins.... 3 Quote Steel bending, stone lifting, grip strength, strongman, picking things up, putting them down Instagram @Doctor.Grip Steel calibration data
