I've rejoined my mates gym since posting this and thankfully he has the 2nd generation Cerberus bags so problem solved. Also ordered a duffle bag that I won't be filling now haha, probs just use it to take all my stuff on comp days instead | |||

BigMacca said: Yeah I def think that has a massive bearing, your CNS is getting battered from the moment you unrack to rerack. For me it doesn't help that I am generally quite a weak squatter either hahaI also find heavy squat sessions harder than heavy deadlift sessions. I think it's down to the fact I can squat heavy and when squatting, the load is constantly on your back throughout the entire set (just supporting the weight is a tough job for the low bar squatter). Give me a max set of 5 on deads over squats any day of the week - When I hit 275kg for 4 on squats a few months back it wiped me out for about 4 days (and I'm used to squatting and deadlifting twice a week!) | |||

KevC86 said:If anyone doesn't find this to be true i would question their notion of "training deadlift hard". Have done sessions where I have worked up to 5+ reps at over 3x bodyweight and I personally don't find it to be the case. Deadlift is one of my strengths though so I'm probs not comparable to most. Magnusson/Ortmayer calculated off a 300kg max at under 90kg bodyweight was hard training IMO.A tough deadlift session is brutal, thats why mine tend to fall on a Friday so I've got the next day or two to rest. Squats on the other hand floor me, a hard squat session can leave me feeling ill to the extent I actually feel like I have a flu building up lol | |||

AdamT said: Phenomenal presser. He has talked about the British record but never talked up the World record much, I def think he is a contender for it though. Maybe keeping the pressure off?To be honest he has a bit to go before he reaches Graham level. Larry might find the cleans getting tough, but he has the power to press anything. I actually think Hixxy goes slightly under the radar, least by casual fans. He Is a f**king animal, especially pressing. | |||

Looking at getting a sandbag for training and conditioning work but I grudge paying £45+ for a shell cos I am a tight git (cheapest I've found are Mirafit on ebay). Was thinking one of those canvas army duffle bags would possibly do the trick instead but worried if it's filled with 90-100kg sand it might start falling to bits. Anyone else used similar with any success or any other suggestions? |
