Ok guy's going back to training days by athletes.

Really trying to get something going with this.... any feedback would be appreciated.
If we could get Terry, Felix, Loz & Jimmy together with the usual strongman set up, stones, farmers, log, deadlift etc.
Would anyone pay to receive critique from them on the events over 1-2 hours?
if so what would you pay?
You would perform the events and they would give you tips....?

feel free to suggest your perfect scenario.

seems just like a money making ploy. why should people be charged to ask for advice and guidance.

just because they are the best in the country it means they know everything to do with strongman.

ill ask JT thanks

if people wanna lick there arses its a free country

Everybody has to make a living and put food on the table be it promoting strongman, making equipment, selling kit, gym memberships, events training, filming and taking pictures of the comps. Unfortunately money is what makes the world go round and if somebody has something you want and they want to charge for it so be it and vise versa.

i think there are a lot of guys who could benefit from this without needing to lick batty

undoubted those guys are top in the country and i know at least 2 of them have pretty much open "free" training invites

i guess there are guys who may feel a little intimidated by such and would feel more comfortable in the scenario suggestedby denny

i think a question and answer session may also be a good idea

I don't know if I'm in favour of this, would this stop them helping someone out in the gym because they are getting paid to do the same thing at another time?

no doubt people would use it cause u get poeple who are great follows and have idols in every sport.

i just dont comprehend why do training sessions. may just be my thinking bit i think this type of thing should be free to promote the sport and get it known

a questions and answer seminar i do get cause its good to know the person behind the strongman and realise what they are like and not just portray a strongman ogre.
