Was making your stone easy mate, how did you go about it?



Pretty much followed this guide mate http://www133.pair.com/iain/vault/house/stones/stonemaking.html hardest bit was finding a suitable size ball, I got a lazy town ball from toys are us which was the nearest size I could find could probably done with a slighlty bigger one as I wanted it to be 90 to 100kg and my calcualtions put this one at the 90kg mark but It came out at 81, maybe if I could have vibrated it to get the bubbles out it might have been closer, I got the plaster from ebay which was the most expensive part mainly due to postage,I got a 20kg bag and probably have about 6kg left Once I get the hang of this one I`m going to make another placing some old weights in the middle to try and get it to the 100kg region, with hindsite I`m going to cover the area of the garden I`m making it in as the wife wasnt too impressed with the plaster splashes and I`m tempted to try using some normal plaster rather than plaster of paris as its a lot cheaper popping to b&q.

665.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq		Quickish one today as ben was wanting to play, took him in the garage with me but he wanted to try all my deadlifts and kept trying to help me when the reps looked hard and i felt guilty and wanted to play.

deadlifts 227x3x3
Trap bar presses 83x3x3
Empty log 3x8


finished my log but when I get change want to make the hand holds bigger and I`m a bit usure with one of the weight mounting bars the wood at that end didnt seem as strong as the other end.

665.0 kgs @ 100kgs UnEq		Changed my routine around going for one I robbed off the phd supllements site, with a bit of strongman tagged on the end Plan is to start resonable then add 2.5kg each week for as long as possible.

squats 160kgx5x5
Bench 120kgx5x5
Under grip rows 100kgx5x5
Farmer walks 3 runs of garden (10m) then another 3 with straps might have to improvise another way of doing these Im batterered after picking the tricep bars up after the low pick up.
