FUCK THE SLAB! Damn I hate the fucking slab. Everytime I work on one it always happens to be -30°C.If bible had pictures hell would look like that
well, like I told my buddy when he told me, "you have to move that on your own" about my 150 pound heavy bag, "what!? You're way stronger than me, you just don't know how to lift it" I just bearhug my bag when I move it, it's simple. With a concrete bag, just place it on your forearms and hold it close to your body. (edit, or just place your arms downward, over the bag and hold it from there, I hate using silly terms like "core" but that's the way you do it, hold it close to your "core") Now, if you have to repeat that 50 times, it's hard no matter what but it's not impossible. I've seen small dudes work all day with heavy stuff like that, without complaint and with no problems. A bit of experience can help.Well TBH, 94 lbs is not easy to lift on any other medium than a barbell. Must be absolute hell in a bag.
that's smart, and easy if you got the dough. But.., I always wonder how some people live the rest of their lives being lazy, I'm not saying it's wrong because people who don't do the shit can and have hurt themselves. But I've just seen such laziness in my time that it makes me wonder how people hold down jobs. but honestly, mental work has always been harder for me, sitting down, thinking hard and analyzing and I've known people that don't like to move that just excel at that type of work. It's strange.No, I got soft hands and work 40 hours a week. That’s part time for real men. I just pay some knuckledraggers to do it.
After about 45 minutes....
Id rather pay a pro to do it right the first time than me guess & butcher it. Also, physical labor is not my thing. Hats off to dudes who can do a whole career of that. Most of them are miserable when they stop working tho cause of all the trauma to their body.that's smart, and easy if you got the dough.

For your hands, good gloves are mandatory for anyone, calloused hands or not. Hands are just hands and getting them pinched, banged and scraped is stupid and not fun. Why do that when you can simply get a good pair of work gloves from seven eleven for 10 bucks or less? I'm a pianist so those things are important to me and a major reason I stopped doing moves/labor etc..,
Concrete gets hot and heavy when wetNever worked with Concreate before. Is he hard to deal with? I bet he cracks under pressure, that sand bag!
You're not wrong, especially if you have no interest or passion. I just think it's stupid to get ripped off because you can't change your own oil or work on simple stuff around your house. I've seen some insanely intelligent guys who turn full retard when they have to work with their hands. We're all different, some people love the abstract or even if they don't love it, are great at it. I never really liked that type of thinking or work, it's not that I can't do it well, it's that it does require more patience with less physical action which makes me stir crazy.Id rather pay a pro to do it right the first time than me guess & butcher it.

Soyboy88Not rich or strong. Meh. I wonder what his Reddit account is..
A yard is roughly 9% shorter than a metre, but when you cube them the difference is compounded, so a cubic metre is actually about 31% bigger.Christ.
1 cubic meter of standard concrete weighs 2,400kgs (2.4metric tons).
a cubic yard is SLIGHTLY smaller than a cubic meter (a yard is 91% of a meter) but barely any less.
So 10cubic meters of concrete = 24tons / 24,000kgs and 12 cubic meters = 28,800kgs.
That's a hell of a lot of cargo for any vehicle to carry at one time.
