Nimble | Trainings atlas stones (again!) | 28-02-2022 @ 14:20 | |
woefully weak Member 4748, 1506 posts SQ 157, BP 133, DL 260550.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | Last year I made a 90ish stone and it’s now got a bit too easy so I made another. It’s 130-140. Tried a few picks today (with tacky) and it felt like it was going to pull the skin off my forearms. Not abrasion but like pulling. Is that normal? Anything bad actually ever happen in that regard? Do sleeves help? | ||

no longer the Swiss Deadlift record holder Member 3517, 3368 posts SQ 182.5, BP 122.5, DL 255560.0 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | Sleeves will help, but I doubt that the pulling sensation will turn into anything more serious than abrasion. I've never heard of an Atlas stone doing a Ramsay Snow on anyone. | ||

See You Next Tuesday Member 2254, 3824 posts SQ 240, BP 165, DL 300705.0 kgs @ 89kgs UnEq | I use sleeves for training to avoid the constant pain and abrasions then go raw in comp as I find bare arm grips better | ||

woefully weak Member 4748, 1506 posts SQ 157, BP 133, DL 260550.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | I’ve trained it a couple of times now and got kind of used to the feeling. I want to try out sleeves though as I know the comp stones are very abrasive (mine have quite a smooth finish). Thanks folks | ||
