I'm back! Been bodybuilding training whist slimming down a bit.

Dropped from 18.5 stone to 17 stone but wanted to properly start strongman training so go a local trainer and started again.

Working out 2 times a week at mo with bike rides on the other days. Will up after recovery times improve.

Loving proper training with logs,sandbags, farmer walk and thick bars!

Here's how its going so far this week (all kg). Not doing any maxes as my conditioning needs sorting so short breaks. Not taking any supplements at mo, ordered up some whey and creatine -


Strict Log - brand new to me.

65 x 5
70 x 3
75 x 3
80 x 3

Sandbag to raise platform - brand new to me.
60 x 5
80 x 3

Squat

70 x 10
80 x 10
90 x 20

Single Arm Dumbell Press

25 x 5
30 x 5
35 x 5

Deadlift - no straps olympic bar

150 x 5
160 x 5
170 x 3
180 x 3

Fat Bar Deadlifts no straps - brand new to me.

130 x 5
140 x 5
150 x 6
160 x 3

Zercher Squats fat bar - brand new to me.

60 x 10
70 x 5
80 x 3

Lots of high speed circuit stuff at the end of each workout for exmaple -

30 sec rowing machine, 5 second break then 60kg overhead press for 30 secs then 5 sec rest then 60kg front squats 30 seconds and back round twice.

This is mixed with adding the sandbag, farmers walk etc.

Goal is to Dead 200kg for good amount of reps, 100kg log for reps, 150kg squat for reps so I can do a novice event in 6 months or so.

80 x 3
90 x 3
100 x 3
110 x 3

Weird I found this more comfortable than squats

Hex Bar Deadlifts

160 x 5
170 x 5
180 x 5

200 x 5 needed some 30 second rests in final 3 .

Pleased with this as before I got a trainer and got serious I just about 6 weeks ago 190 single was my max deadlift!

At this rate my goal of a single 250 is only a few months away.
