1015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq		I'll try it mate, thanks. I've been trying powerball and stuff to get some blood into that area.

I'd love to do a bit of strongman this year - i'll just have to see how my back holds up mate. Bit of a dull ache in the right SI today, nothing serious i hope. I'll just lay off squats and deads for a week to let it heal up.

515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq		you do a lot of grip work, Sam, back when I was interested in this sort of thing I read that you need to train your hands both ways, i.e flexion and opposite.
IronMind has some interested rubber bands to strength then opening of your hand instead of clenching/gripping/crushing all the time, maybe worth a try?

Thanks mate. Yep i do rubber band extensions all the time, just using 2 thick bands. I bought the ironmind ones once and could do 50 reps with the red band on each hand. My plan is to start chucking some heavy reverse wrist curls into my routine aswell to try and sort this out.

Looks ok Will, overhead especially. First events play will be on Sunday morning.

I'll wear a thin belt (the maximuscle one) on the stones all the time to support my back so the leaning back thing isn't as much of an issue. I'm gonna go easy for the first couple of weeks on them, just work on doing a few light runs and then start smashing it.

I'll also need to practice farmers deadlifts to ensure i'll get 140s off the floor. I suspect if i can lift them i will hold them for a fair while LOL!

I did 150kg the other week mate i dont think you will have much of a problem mate at i think you could be a favourite to win that event

your bw is in your favour for the pull. hussofel stone should be ok for you as will the yoke
Will and the boys will sort your stone's out

if you stay injury free i can you doing some damage in this comp

1015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq		Cheers Strangey. I am working my deads hard from this week onwards to that farmers pick up isn't an issue! And having my first play with the stones this weekend.

180kgx5
220kgx4
240kgx7 (touch n go, belt, straps, more in the tank)
