As above, i need a good log lol!

Wanting to start log pressing and nowhere nearby has a log so think i may buy one. Budget though is tight as always, however im prepared to spent the cash to get the right thing.

Im looking for the real deal as opposed to one of the skinny ones that some places do, and want the correct hand spacing. Ive seen strength shop and atlasstones do them. What are peoples opinions on both?

Ok cool think i would rather give the business to him tbh as it s what he does.

Second question, full size/spec log or training log?

training log is in the region of 45kg, full size is around 30kg heavier. depends on what you can log tbh. i've got a 110 max log so i'd go with the smaller as it's better for warming up on, but if you've got say a 160 log, 75kg is nothing for you either :P

ive done 60kg on a smaller log 200mm diameter for 12 reps fairly comfortably and thats the only time ive done log. Im guessing a bigger diameter makes it a lot harder though?

I would go with the training log. You can always put weight on it. You can't take weight off a 75kg log. Think that the two are the same diameter from jt.

Full sized JT logs are 60-65kg I think, unless they've changed.

Ive got the 45kg training log from JT...
its the same diam and hand spacing as IFSA with the added bonus of being slightly shorted so easier for storage (",)
