Via Napalm’s Corner : C.J. Murphy tests a few of the new products from Spud Inc (Marc ‘Spud’ Bartley’s powerlifting and strongman equipment line), beginning with the Atlas Stone Training Handle. If you’re just embarking on your stone lifting journey, this is well worth considering.

I gotta say, a “stone handle” seems like a horrible idea. Handling the stone is the challenge of the stone. It would probably allow you to handle more weight too. If you’re new to stone lifting, you’re probably new to round back lifting too, in which case, the weights need to stay reasonable.

I’m in two minds about the handle. I agree that it does take away some of the challenge; but if the challenge is too great, some people won’t ever get started.
I think it’d be fine if used to train a beginner, closely watched by someone with a bit of experience.
