I just touch my bum on the box very lightless and stand up They may not be "box squats" now I think about it, but all squattings is good squattings... And these can only help for overall strength for strongman imo | ||

Can't beat a bit of cardio to loosien the back. Had a look in your journal the other day and you inspired me to go for a jog. Cheers No worries! Yes full fitness, just a shame that is still f**king piss weak lol Just a quick run around the block but hey it can't do me any harm Loosening the back is an added bonus too | ||

Thanks olly! Although I had aims at making national finals this year I think the participation is too high to be able to make any predictions now or indeed judge progression from specific placings If my year is as fun and varied as last year I will be happy 10 comps for the win! | ||

Are you ever tempted to throw something mega stupid overhead again .........must be a wee bit tempting ??? Thanks big jay! Yeah sure I will jerk 200kg if you like, just got to shake this dead leg off first Circus tricks are fun! I'm satisfied with this weeks training, I got in five times and did s little bit every session which was worthwhile I want to start putting up videos to make things more attractive and interesting to make up for the distinct lack of increased poundages I hope you're well mate! | ||
