Sandbag Toss & Competition Nutrition Secrets

In this video, I break down how to approach the sandbag toss and answer a few questions about game-day nutrition. This video was recorded live at a seminar at the Weight Pit, so you'll get the real deal - questions, answers, and all the heavy lifting knowledge you can handle.
Get ready to toss some heavy sand bags!

That sandbag falling from the ceiling was a GIANT MOOSE DROPPING !!!

I love these tuition videos. You are such a great teacher, Mitch. You explain everything perfectly.

These sandbags are fantastic for an explosive movement workout out in a park, by the way.

I'll be cheering you on this weekend good luck

Very helpful, thanks man.

I only just saw your Reddit thread today. What were the top entries? Mispronouncing Loz's name repeatedly is far and away my favorite. If you win the frame, I think you *have* to reference Canadian grip as well.

Good luck this weekend Mitch!

We see a handful of top level strongmen use a hop back motion to get closer to the bar, while swinging the bag. My thought was that this saves them some time in shuffling back, but should only really be done by those with a lot of experience in knowing the perfect distance for them to the bar. Now I wonder if this is just bad form and not recommended or whether its a pro strat for the elites.

Love the “Be friendly. Make it fun” Mitch. Saw a guy training in Crocs recently btw. Maybe it’s just a Stouffville thing. Good luck this weekend.

Number one tip DO NOT fall on ones arse whilst tossing

@Mitchell Hooper, I do not have access to sand bags or kegs and the like. I do have access to kettle bells. When I do kettle bell swings I do them as if throwing a sand bag. Before you came on the scene I have followed Thor & Brian Shaw's technique (same as yours, bring the bag as far as you can through the legs for more power \ momentum). 😎

Good luck at Arnold's Mooooose !!! Did you see how easily my 2nd fav Strongman Rauno did 4 reps of 420 ? Wow !!! ua-cam.com/users/shortsuQmqVdrqPRs

Wouldn't you want the sand in the back in order to gain the mont momentum
