 Hamstrings feel activated. Member 1107, 6964 posts SQ 220, BP 152.5, DL 252.5625.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | So, bumpety bump. Things have moved on since this post. Does anybody swear by a gumshield/mouthpiece as an ergogenic aid to Powerlifting? | ||

 ‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3220 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Several things that may be of benefit to performance Stops your teeth grinding - definitely also this whole CNS irradiation thing - gripping the bar tightly benching, drill feet into ground squatting and so on. So clenching jaw much harder creates a similar tension In jaw, neck muscles that then percolates through other muscle groups. and then there's a placebo/psychological effect.. putting in the guard for a massive attempt reinforces and focuses your mind that you're stepping up a level. | ||

 Sugdens crazy old person. Member 4936, 7288 posts SQ 270, BP 155, DL 270695.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq | Gummy Bear Instead a self invented cardboard piece made with a Dremel hanging out your mouth as you reach down to grab the bar you notice your half torn bicep skin flab.... anyhow I think cardboard of high quality is blah blah blah... | ||

 #IStandByMillsy Member 4287, 2614 posts SQ 300, BP 310, DL 250860.0 kgs @ 120kgs Eq | I use one for heavy benching; stops cracking teeth, and (enter psychologically or physiologically) seems to help me to keep tighter and grind through lifts better, also seem to have conditioned myself to relate it to lifting heavy so helps me focus (coupled with ammonia). | ||

 403 forbidden message Member 160, 5121 posts SQ 190, BP 137.5, DL 225552.5 kgs @ 86kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 14.02.2018 @ 11:41 AM by Funky_monkey davycummings said: If what it says it does is true then its a bargain. They claim: up to 20% increase in strength up to 25% reduction in lactic acid up to 12% increase in reaction time am I right to be just a little sceptical?  Be good to see Hall hitting a 600kg deadlift... Also be good to see them IPF approved for £10,000. | ||
