Alpha Designs | 'Beast' Strong Smelling Salts | Used by Weightlifting Strongman Eddie Hall | High Strength Formula | Gym Sniffing Salts

Product Information

Just five years earlier, strongmen were struggling to break 460 kg (1,010 lbs.), and Eddie's record was a monumental feat. But it didn't come easy, and some of the most memorable images from that event show the Stoke-on-Trend native with a red face and a bleeding nose. Generally speaking, a high-level competitor performing a deadlift will do everything it takes to make that lift, even if it means suffering a nosebleed, passing out, or putting their body under immense strain. The good news is that while it makes for a pretty gory sight, the nosebleeds experienced by powerlifters are rarely serious.

Compound exercises like the deadlift create intra-thoracic and intra-abdominal pressure under the strain of a max effort lift, and this raises blood pressure. The high-pressure places strain on the delicate blood vessels in the nose, and this pressure increase can cause the vessels to rupture. Nowadays, smelling salts are used by athletes of all sorts, including powerlifters and strongmen to potentially improve their athletic performance. How To Use Smelling Salts

Although if the stuff is strong/potent enough, then I’d recommend not fully taking the lid off as that will prevent the gas from escaping and therefore prolong the “lifespan” of the product. Hall also passed out after completing the lift and has gone on record as saying that he nearly died after pushing his body further than it was supposed to be pushed. By definition, they are any of preparations of ammonium carbonate and perfume, sniffed as a restorative or stimulant. Do keep in mind though, that there is actually very little scientific evidence to prove that smelling salts work.

It can help you feel less fatigued, improve focus and increase energy levels, allowing for better results overall. Additionally, it can help with mental clarity by providing a jolt to the brain.
