Found that I was limitted by equipment not weight. Used a burly bag (no handles) for my 80kg + lifts and had to try and stack small SB s on top. Didnt work very well. Split my 80kg which was shit.
With the back squat definately could squat more but couldn't get from the ground onto my shoulders.
Same with the push jerk, I just couldnt get it racked to start the lift. Tried at 60kg a few times with no luck.
On a positive the Fat Gripz made the deadlifts etc cooler. Do you know of anyone who is making a SB that will take 80kh+ that has handles???? I am thinkging of buying another brute force but filling it with steel shot. The shot is about $3 a kg but takes up very little space.
Hi Josh - have you seen the video of Mark at My Mad Methods deadlifting a Brute Force bag with 300lb in it?! Not sure it's recommended by the manufacturer but it's certainly possible:
