Whats one rep going to do for your power?ciscokid wrote:I bet that he is :P - I used to do weights in a crappy gym under where Scott Dann trains. One day Scott came down from doing an hour of boxing training (his 2nds of the day) and picked up the heaviest dumbells (40kg each) and knocked out a clean set of 12 reps on shoulder press.Jabba The Nut wrote:NO WAY!!!!! Hatton is shoulder pressing 105kg
105llb maybe, but no way is he shoulder pressing that amount. I know some pretty big body builders who would struggle to shift 105kg on the shoulder press.
I read that Kosta Tszyu used to do one rep on a really heavy weight to build up his power, so may be Ricky was doing a shoulder press with just one rep of 105Kg? I was also told that hatton was shrugging 250Kg - not sure how true this is though!
So he did 40kg on each side which means he was doing 80 overall. I do 30kg on each arm but could probably only do an extra 5 at most.
