Power bag training- Excelsior beanie




















A couple of Excelsior clients have supplied these photos: the first is a home made powerbag which costs next to nothing. Charlie Tokeley used a sandbag and then wrapped up the centre part with some masking tape to make it more robust. He uses this as part of his rugby fitness training and it replicates the awkward nature of lifting other people's bodies in the contact area.

The 2nd photo shows Arthur Lanigan O'Keeffe (2nd from right) wearing his Excelsior beanie in front of the Berlin Olympic gate. Arthur was on a training camp with the Irish Modern Pentathlon team over Christmas, and needed the beanie due to the cold weather.
