A lot of guys that use there body for a living end up with injuries due to lack of training or not using proper form when lifting items. Obviously the heavier you go the harder it is to keep proper form. I always found that if I train heavy when I really can pay attention to being safe and using correct form made the lifting as a framer back in the day a whole lot easier. The harder you train for the task the easier it becomes. Turns a four man glue lam into a three or two man glue lam. Luckily I am not on the labor side of the buis anymore but the extra strength I have built over the years comes in handy in many tasks outside the work place not to mention being strong is nice for mma training which is an incredible cardio workout. |

Ok, OK, I see that you are aware of the weight. Fibermesh, latex additive, and good 4000 PSI bagged concrete should do it.

Actually the picking aside....I do agree that exercise is a really good thing. Without it i'm miserable. Although when it comes to strength i feel that if i can consistently raise my hands over my head i'm plenty strong.

You should also water cure them for a week or so then densify them with sodium silicate.
