| stevejones |  | Savage Strength Safety Squat Bar. 10% Discount Available | 12-08-2011 @ 16:27 |
Member 2636, 35 posts SQ 232, BP 145, DL 240617.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | The Savage Strength Safety Squat Bar has been designed to prevent excessive hip flexion and knee stresses when performing squatting movements. In addition to this it provides those athletes with limited chest and shoulder mobility a comfortable alternative to a regular back squat On his website the King of squatting Dr Fred Hatfield quotes “The safety squat bar is, in my opinion, the safest method of squatting because the shear on knees and low back are reduced significantly”. (www.drsquat.com) Handles at the front of the bar reduce shoulder strain and the design of the Safety Squat Bar allows you to let go completely of the bar and it will stay securely positioned with the load spread comfortably over the 3 pads. The Savage Strength Safety Squat Bar is constructed from 30mm solid high tensile steel and will fit in any Power Rack or Squat Rack. 25kg Empty, Our bar will handle over 400kg. http://www.savagestrength.co.uk/savage-strength-safety-squat-b... | ||
| stevejones | | Dual Grip Shrug/Trap Bar. 10% off for Sugden Members | 12-08-2011 @ 16:36 |
Member 2636, 35 posts SQ 232, BP 145, DL 240617.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Dual Grip Shrug Bar is a fantastic addition to your gyms set of Special Bars When you perform an exercise such as the deadlift with the Savage Strength Dual Grip Shrug Bar the load is moved further back in line with your body rather than in front. The benefit of this is the Shrug Bar will place much more load on the legs and less on the lower back because of the more upright position. A lot of people who struggle with back pain when squatting or deadlifting have told us how much they enjoy using the Shrug Bar and the huge strength they have gained after a few months of use. The handles on our Shrug Bar are designed to keep any 'shearing' load off the Delts and allow you to concentrate on driving the weight up. Not only is this bar great for Deadlifting, but if your gym doesn't have farmers walk handles this is a decent replacement. The 25mm and 50mm diameter gripping handles are 25" apart (centre to centre). The benefits of training with thick grip implements very widely known and appreciated thanks to the Strongman community.

| stevejones | | Product Update. Animal Thick Bar . Comes in 2 inch, 2.5 inch and 3 inch Dia | 16-08-2011 @ 10:24 |
Member 2636, 35 posts SQ 232, BP 145, DL 240617.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Training with thick bars has long been heralded as a great way of increasing strength. Many elite trainers such as Charles Poliquin have suggested that it not only improves grip strength but also pushing and pulling strength and power. However one of the main questions trainers have related to training with thick bars is not whether one should use them but where can I get one? Introducing the Animal Thick Bar. This Amazing 7 ft Long Bar comes in a choice of 2 inch, 2.5 inch and inch thicknesses. The Zinc Bar Ends are CNC Machined to exactly 50mm and Run on Twin Bearing giving an incredibly smooth action even with massive loads on the Bar. This bar has the capacity to deal with up to 500kgs. Simply using this bar when performing core lifts such as Deadlifts, Cleans, Push Presses, and Rows you will experience such an added dimension to your routine that when you return to using a normal Olympic Bar you will be amazed by the increased loads you will be able to handle. In addition to this, due to the increased effort required when training with thick bars your conditioning will improve as well as arm size. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdUHmMgl2Ew&feature=player_... http://blog.savagestrength.co.uk/ Remember 10% Discount Available for Sugden Members | ||

Then training the Farmers Walk Strongman event is the way to go.

Particular emphasis was placed on events such as the farmers’ walk, super yolk and keg walks. The research indicated walking with weighted implements targeted forearms, latisssimus dorsi, hip flexors, gluteus medius, lower back and mid section. Upon conclusion the research team highlighted that improvements in an athletes lifting and overall core strength could be experienced if they included carrying exercises into a traditional program.

We guarantee once you use Watson Animal Breaker Bench, you will never want to Bench Press on another Bench. The Watson Animal Breaker Bench is extremely heavy duty and will handle over 750kg. Bar uprights are fully adjustable and Olympic weight storage is included. The Lift Off Hooks on our Breaker Bench have a nylon seat which protects the knurling on your valuable bar.

Member 2636, 35 posts SQ 232, BP 145, DL 240617.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | Many Strength and Conditioning coaches will often say that a major cause of leg injury in the athletes they train is down to in-balances in the strength development between the powerful quadricep muscles under active glutes and weak hamstrings.
