Thank you for watching and hopefully the information was helpful!

You're welcome! Thank you very much for taking the time to watch!

@@WhiteLionAthletics scary exercise for me though

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to watch and leave a comment. A couple of things could be happening and the first one is that the strap on your left hand is not as tight as the one on the right period sometimes it happens that we can get one strap tighter than the other so if this is the case be sure that both straps are equally tight on the bar. The other issue might be your grip on your left side is not as strong on your right side. You would likely realize this while doing other lifts.So if this is the case some dedicated training for the grip strength and endurance on your left side would be appropriate to balance out the performance between your hands when lifting.

So great to hear from you! Thanks very much for taking the time to watch the video and let us know your thoughts on it! All the best with your training!

Hello! Thank you very much for the question! We would recommend signing up for our email because as that's where we'll be announced the new product drops.

@@WhiteLionAthletics Let's get them in every weight by 2kgs: 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 etc

Thank you very much for letting us know! Using a reasonable weight load consistently with this exercise can bring great results! Looking forward to hearing more about your success in the future!

20kg here (44lbs). Thank you very much for watching and leaving a comment! Much appreciated!

Excellent question based on a great observation! A floor press (shown here) can be done with barbells dumbbells, kettlebells, sandbags .....for a (at least) a few great reasons. What we mean by great is that it can achieve a number of specific outcomes that might be desirable as a training effect. The Pause: Although there is a reduced range of motion with the floor press relative to one done on the bench, having your upper arm pause at the ground brings the movement to a complete stop before changing direction. This removes any potential momentum generated from bouncing at the bottom when your elbow travels, past your shoulder on a bench. You can definitely pause at the bottom of a dumbbell benchpress; but, the question is, will your elbow always be in the same position? The floor press allows your arm to pause at the same position at every rep.

Easy exit: Using the floor press also provides you with a safe and easy exit. If you cannot complete the repetition period all you need to do is straightener elbows and the dumbbells will come to the ground without having to travel a very large distance like they would if they were if you were on a bench. Why this kettlebell variation? The positioning of this kettle bell is seemingly controversial given some of the comments in the section. All those comments are definitely appreciated, as they do highlight many potential areas for risk for a user that is not familiar with positioning the kettlebell this way, or are in need of the specific outcomes that this press might be able to create if it is done consistently and safely. This type of grip would most accurately be described as a pinch grip. Because your fingertips are the main source of controlling the kettlebell. Almost all pressing is done with a crush grip where the object in your hand is being controlled by your palm and your fingers.

In closing, we would say that if oppressing exercise with a larger range of motion is required than the floor press is not one that might be pursued on a regular basis. If this specific exercise is being considered , doing it on a floor where there is a safe and easy exit , as well as a noticeable pause at the bottom would be a nice option because it is relatively safer than trying it on the bench. Introducing this exercise might be considered if the user is interested in doing the press that requires a pinch grip , which is a unique style of grip when we are pressingconsidering that almost all pressing requires a crushing grip.

@@WhiteLionAthletics Thanks a lot for the long awnser! I still have my toughts about this exercise, but i understand your point of view also better now!

Thank you for taking the time tp watch and thank you for the comment here. You could definitely cut them; but, the weight would change slightly. The Bulava is a great option for all swings that can be done with a Steel Club as well as the Mace.

@@WhiteLionAthletics Heh I didn't mean literally cut. Funny to picture though. I'm looking at a few adjustable but you guys have reasonable prices on set weights so I'll keep you in mind! E: I realized I meant to say "Split the difference" heh

@philmakesnoise 🤣 ok! Thank you for clarifying! Hoping we can assist in the future!

​@@WhiteLionAthleticsI have a adex mace do you think the shape makes it less affective because it's not a globe ?

@troymatthews9541 Adex is solid product with a thoughtful design. The concentration of the majority of our Bulava's weight load is different and so is the balance point. Depending on the handle length and weight, our Bulava may require more torque. We hope this explanation is helpful! Thank-you very much for taking the time to leave your question!

Thank you very much for taking the time to let us know that this video was helpful for you. All the very best for your training and stay in touch in case you need any questions answered or need feedback!

@@WhiteLionAthletics thankyou!!

Thank you very much for taking the time to watch and let us know!

You could seal the bag with duct tape or something similar. It's definitely worth a try because if al sand does come out it's not the end of the world :)

Are you saying the sealer won't heat seal without vacuum sealing or are you saying the heat seal is not going to be strong as duck taping?

The sealer will melt the seal without vacuuming it. that's how you close the other side of the bag so we definitely know that it will work that way.

​@@WhiteLionAthleticsthanks for explaining to me, I don't know how the sealing device works since I've never used one. About duct tape, is it to ensure the seal doesn't break when you don't vacuum seal it?

@Projectdarksource you're very welcome! Duct tape is recommended for 2 reasons. The first reason is to seal the bag, and the second reason is to actually reinforce the plastic on the bag . duct tape. Being abrasion resistant will hold up longer than the actual plastic will. So you can use the plastic bag as a container for the sand - if you will - and the duct tape will reinforce the plastic bag as well as seal the bag so it does not spill everywhere.

Thank you very much! We definitely like this approach more than speaking through instructional!

This is much more approachable than people might think - Very happy to hear that you are training with kettlebells! If you start off with a kettlebell in the 4kg to 8kg range (the cast iron kettlebells. Being much smaller than competition bells ) will allow you to most likely tackle this exercise with coffense. if you do have some apprehension, also applying some chalk on your hands before we'll make things more manageable.

Thank you very much for watching until the very end! Have a great evening!

@@WhiteLionAthletics thank you for the succinct & helpful video! And you do the same!

This process is called irradiation - it's the process in which muscles in one part of the body can be “recruited” by the actions of other body parts through neuromuscular pathways. In this example, a strong grip recruits all of the upper extremities, allowing for better strength and stability.

@@WhiteLionAthletics awesome! Thank you so much for the reply, now to do some research! Keep Up the great content 💪🏽

Will do! Irradiated is absolutely fascinating and essential! Once you start thinking about it, how you lift (and how you think about what you lift) will change forever! 📈📈

start light. Focus on your grip; core stability and shoulder stability. It's more manageable that it seems :)
