ok, back to it after the comp.

Here's the comp vid:



I need to get stronger, faster and fitter. None of that is new, but now it was really hammered home.

Plan is to do speed and conditioning training in a way of lighter, faster and longer farmers, medleys, loading stuff etc on a weekly basis. Strength is built in the gym lifts, and occasional heavier event training.

Will pull back now for a while though i think. No detailed plans. Focus on the lifts are still on overhead and deadlift.

next competition is on 31st of august, barnard castle show.

Events:

Events
1. Over head medley press:
Beer barrel 80/90kg, Axle 100/110kg, Pendulum press 110/120kg, Log 125/130kg. Fastest time wins.

2. Tyre flip
350kilo tyre to be flip 15 metres, fastest time wins or distance covered (Flips)

3. Forward axe hold
20kilo axe in front, arms straight at shoulder high. Longest time wins

4. Loading
4 items to be loaded onto 4ft 6’ high platform, items to be loaded are, 80/90kg beer barrel, 90/100 kilo tree stump, 100/110kg sandbag & wagon wheel (weight TBC). Fastest time wins.

5. Truck pull
Unit and trailer weight 18 tonne, harness only, fast time wins or distance covered

I wont care how i place at this comp. Main thing is to do all events on par with my training and strength level - and to get some comp experience.

after the comp i didnt train weights for a week. Fair bit of walking, some nordic walking and swimming.

Friday 7th - KISAHALLI, helsinki

clean and jerk
5x40
3x40
2x60
1x80
1x90

to power clean & power jerk:

2x100

5x150
1x180
4x200
1x220

box jumps, sets of 3 to increasing heights

Super video Joni. Despite your placing your performance looked solid and you gave 100%. Obviously there were many world class athletes there! I'll see you at Olympic on thursday if you're down. I bet you've got some tales to tell mate and it will be interesting to get some feedback regarding the type of training these guy's do.
Putting yourselves in at that level proves you and Tony have bags of character and you can only learn and improve competing against them.
