haha! Tempted to cut about 3kg of fat out now to push it all the way... Happy

Back to it yesterday to work some stiffness away. Also didnt do any pressing at the comp so may as well do it now.

Strict press (from blocks)
5x50
5x70
5x82.5
1x90
4x82.5
8x70

Narrow grip board press
10x60
10x80
10x100
10x110

Squats
5x80
5x80

Some bodybuilding dumbell work.

Plans are being hatched for my next two comps, back to back finnish 105 cup comps where points from both comps are tallied up to get the total - awesome!

Also being 2nd reserve for the englands strongest 105 finals it would be foolish for me not to be prepared.

LETS GO!

Translated the events for my finnish 105 cup comps, this is THE FOCUS from now on (ESM is unlikely and has similar events anyway, apart from squat)

Comp 1 (2nd of July, Kuikka)

1. Incline bench 10" log press, 120-130kg, starts from straight arms
2. farmers 122kg for 50m
3. Tractor trailor deadlift, sidehandles, 300kg in hands, for reps
4. Chain yoke, 280kg for 20m
5. stones: 115,136,149,160,181kg to 115cm-100cm

Comp 2 (9th of July, Haapajarvi)

1. Farmers 120kg /40m
2. Dumbell (60kg./ 90sec) or viking press
3. Conan 260-300kg.
4. Medley: tyre flip 4x300kg axle 100kg and 125kg
5. Sack loading 100-140kg.

So, points are tallied up from both comps and that gives you your position.

I've had this discussion with you before I think....but getting stronger doesnt necessarily make you better at the events

strange how the farmers are duplicated though?

No but how many times has Joni done these events, to a good standard?
It's not like he doesn't know how to do farmers, yoke, stones etc. Sure some of the others need a bit of direct work, but if he put 20kg on his deadlift, squat then don't you think ALL the events would be a bit easier/better? Not saying to not do any events but just to cover obvious weaknesses (things he has never done before weight or event wise), or test the comp weights once or twice even, and just get overall stronger.
Just my thoughts at the end of the day he will do exactly what he wants.
