I'm just gonna take a wild guess on that one. Lol guess i'll know when I get into the real speed range when I tear them then.

Because if you throw with sufficient speed with a properly tackied hammer you will rip them on the first throw. Ask me how I know.

Sure got a lot in your box!
Great article. I definitely have a lot to consider before the next games. My baseball bag I use is greatly under prepared compared to you "Box of Thrower's Delight".
What do you do with your box during the games? I always feel a bit uncertain about leaving my stuff just sitting somewhere, but that may be because I work with criminals all day and sometimes forget how to function around normal citizens.

I have used a bunch of different ones. I think the rheband ones are great the normal blue ones. I a like the heavy ones from EFS for squatting. Duncan recently bestowed a pair of the rheband strongman sleeves on me and I like them a lot for training. However for throwing the Blue Rhebands are solid and used by more strength athletes than anything out there.

It is just a big tool box from Lowes. Nothing special but works great

Good article Matt. I saw your brother's "box-o-stuff" at the Olympia this year but I forgot to ask him about it. Any specific type of box you guys bought? I have been using a huge suitcase when I travel to shows, but this looks much more manly.

hahah there is no way to run out of stuff. People have been writing about the same ideas for decades and people still don't get it right.
