Very nice axle press mate. 115KG for 5 reps, no leg drive, is extremley impressive

What is your max log mate? Bet you a 130KG+ log presser already (I'm jealous LOL)

Thing said:
good stuff and wise to lay off for a few day especially with the comp approaching.

well done steve again today mate i told you your stones would improve very fast once you pick up the tricks
you would have got that 130k stone today but you could not get a good contact
some nice warmed up tacky and they will fly up

your doing well, just three sessions and your improvments are fantastic
this is because of the solid foundation your building from, with a good level of gym strength
and you will improve the more time you spend learning the skills of strongman

we have one last session next week and we will go through all the events we will do some work on arm over arm as we have not had the chance

next week is the one you go mental and everyone will leave nothing in the gym sunday
you thought you have had it hard next week is a new level of pain

then the following week you rest up, carb up, keep busy and dont think to much about it
keep your mind clear

Come the day you show up on time, grab your shirt, listen to the reff, make sure your clear on all rules
when your name is called, you give it hell, everything you have done in training and more you did not even know you had
you walk away with no regrets, clear in your head that you gave it your all
and where you place is not important
just that you did the best you could

not many guys enter a national strongman comp for their first comp, not many guys enter after only a months event training, so your right in a the deep end, up against in my opinion some of the best of 105 guys in britain, not just scotland

so just having the balls to compete is good enough for my respect
you will do well steve and i am sure you can take a few scalps on your stong events
i will do my best to make sure you have a great event to make your strongman debut and make sure all the guys have a well run comp
i think it is going to be a cracker of a comp mate
it could be the comp of the year in scotland
i just wish i could dropp 30kg for the day and play - jammy bas***ds

Some very impressive events training Stevie. Even more so considering you have only done events 2-3 times!!
