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?
