I am going to keep a journal again mainly because I miss keeping one. also I am very poor at keeping a written verision as I always have too much to do at home and can update sugden while I should be working at work (you have all done that)

I have uksc northern qualifer in 7 days time and if I dont come top 4 I have threaten myself with a diet. whatever happens I will keep the log going.

while I have not kept a log I have managed to find out what was wrong with me and why I couldn't eat carbs. I am lactose intolrant. (normally quite easy to diagnose but my doctor insisted I wasnt)

also I have started training quite differently I no longer f**k about trying to do a variant of westside. I stopped progressing and it is mainly based imo on equipped lifting which is less and less in strongman.
I read quite abit about how the bulgrian weightlifters train and some of what john bronz has wrote on the subject of daily maxes and have sort of adapted to my needs. lets see what happens. (so far I really like it)

today uksc north qualifer

1st event arm over arm
44seconds I think and was damn hard work the rope felt rather thin for someone with big hands and hurt with every pull out of the top 10 I think so nil points

2nd event viking press
6 reps on the 5th rep in rack postion my right hamstring cramped up like a motherf**ker. alot got reps unsure on placing

3rd event 15 inch axle deadlift
I was most worried about this event pulled the mandatory 300 then 320 could see I was falling behind as most went 330 or 340 for 2nd pull went 350 for 3rd got it. most competitors were going 360 went balls out and got me 365 for a 15 kg pb for that height regardless of wether its a bar or axle. very happy with this 5th place I think

4 th event medley
the deadlift had hurt my hip (had this niggle for years the deadlift hurts it but u dont know its hurt till ur next set or ne t event) 5 tyre flips everytime I got 3/4's up I got shooting pains I both hips so I had to budge the tyre over the last 1/4 the barrel carry was ok never finished the drag but was close to it

5th samsons barrow
did about 3/4 of the course in one go dropped it tried another pick up and shock horror hip f**ks me over again 5th I think

6th stones
did 130 150 160 each time feeling like someone was using a powerdrill on my hip bent over for the 180 with every intension of having a crack at it then felt a pain in my left bicep and decided to stop there.

7th overall

time to get on a diet and cough cough go clean

cheers ross

been feeling absolutely drained since comp. hip is about 90% now just needs stretching and me not be lazy and just getting it moving about


as mentioned in first post if I didnt qualify id start a diet. not gone overboard on it yet just cut out any sweet treats so far which which will go a long way.

as I am really crap at front squat and log I will do atleast 1 of these per session if not both. ( will throw the odd back squat and strict log in now and again)

no mate to get down to that weight with my structure I wouldnt be strong enough to compete with the likes of our top 105's.

if I get a bit of timber off it will help my foot problem immensely.

I actually enjoy running but at my current fitness/bodyweight I am just gonna f**k myself up.

so 6 months of concentrating on a bit of weightloss and fitness. while holding onto as much strength as I can is the plan.

then comeback next year for northern qualifer in my best shape ever
