HOW WOULD YOU fare in these challenges?
Ireland teammates Conor Murray and Jamie Heaslip went-head-to head recently in a series of physical challenges for MaxiNutrition, to see who was definitively* (not actually definitively) the stronger athlete.
The pair started with a balance competition on a Swiss ball, before seeing who would hold their body weight the longest.
We then found out who had the better core with a planking challenge, before moving onto dumbell holds, and finishing with push-ups.
First up, the Swiss ball challenge…

1-0 to the scrum-half, but who would come out on top when they had to do an endurance challenge hanging from a pull-up bar?

Heaslip is in big trouble now, and he needs his core to save him. Can he claw his way back into the challenge?

That’s one back, but Murray can still snatch victory with the dumbell straight arm challenge.

Heaslip’s on a roll now, and we’re locked at 2-2 heading into the final set. Push-ups will decide it. But this challenge isn’t about quantity, it’s about quality.
