Death by tyre anyone????? Member 2587, 692 posts SQ 335, BP 185, DL 310 830.0 kgs @ 142kgs Eq	PaulSavage said: Have done 15 strongman competitions - what do you think? Ive competed in and loaded/ref'd/helped out at more than that and I've never come across one. I will assume yes based on your childish answer, what weights/reps have you achieved. Seriously curious to see how you relate carpet lifitng to measurable gym lifts.

Surely you'd require a decent powerlifting total to work where you are? How are staff interviewed/tested? Do you work with other strongmen? I do not wish to discuss this

That's really weird as there's a viking press at load of strongman gyms i been to and even two regular local gyms have one. My best is 140kg for i think 5?? Or maybe 150kg i cant remember to be honest but it doesnt mean much as far as figuring the weight since the setup is different on every viking press so only two ways to do it. One, weigh it, two, what it feels like compared to a bar. It was childish because you are pointlessly questioning what i say when i have no reason to lie.

Death by tyre anyone????? Member 2587, 692 posts SQ 335, BP 185, DL 310 830.0 kgs @ 142kgs Eq	You lift carpets pal, you DO NOT viking press in your job. I open hundreds of doors a day yet do not claim I do grip workouts as gainful employment.

It's a viking press regardless of how the weight is provided. A carpet is a carpet. A quad bike on a viking press is a viking press. A carpet on a viking press is a viking press. A carpet is a carpet.

Member 2775, 6927 posts	Seated leg curl - to 250lb x 6 pb drop 130lb x 6 Hip abductor - to 220lb x 12 Single leg extension - to 130lb x 10/10 pb Bent over dumbbell laterals - 20kg's rest pause set Seated dumbbell curls (slow) - 14kg's x ?? Going to rest till next week now, feeling a bit burnt out. Was happy to do the stack on leg curls, hamstrings are not a huge weakness anymore.

Squatting isn't doing my back any good. Member 5108, 869 posts SQ 170, BP 125, DL 210 505.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq	The journal saga goes on. -I'm also keenly awaiting updates on big squats/deads & regular benches. -I expect you will manage some Paul as you've already moved some pretty big weights and it's clear from your training that you're getting stronger. Whatever the exercises are they're still a benchmark of your strength if you're doing the same exercises over a period of time. On the subject of non gym going people in manual jobs being strong, I remember working in a factory which had old-school production methods (Moulton Brown) and the ingredients for the potions we were mixing had to be poured by hand from drums (up to I think 80 gallons in size) into a mixing vat which was shoulder height. Needless to say the guys working there were all pretty strong.
