Pretty pissed off as squats traditionally has been my best exercise but has been nothing short of s**t for last few weeks.  Ah well, just gonna have to back off until knee sorted, just have to take it as it comes. | ||

he who does the volume wins Member 2498, 3652 posts SQ 160, BP 125, DL 225510.0 kgs @ 109kgs UnEq | 17/07/2011 First ever Strongman events session at Salt Ayre. Firstly would like to thank Ben for providing these sessions and also thanks to the other guys shane, rico and jim for helping me out and shouting encouragement, so cheers for that lads. Log Press 50kg 60kg 70kg, happy to get this as its the lowest poss weight at Salt Ayre Classic 80kg 85kg 90kg PB,  95kg, failed at this twice, just struggled to get legs and arms in sync. I think with better technique this is certainly doable. Farmers 60kg x 40m (20m then back 20m) 112kg x 20m, 20-30 secs rest then 20m back 132kg x 11m (ish), grip went and tore callous off hand. Happy with this, choice of 100 or 130 for the day, may go for 130 as only 10m is needed for decent points. Yoke 130kg x 40m (20m then back 20m), found this weird, once got position on back correct was pretty good in the end. 230kg x 20m 310kg x 5m, damn this was tough, not used to it and found legs were too close together, needed wider stance and thats what got me a few metres). This again will come I think with time. Loading medley (to 4ft) 70kg sandbag 80kg sandbag 95kg barrel 105kg(ish??) almost had a second attempt at this 105kg barrel  95kg barrel 80kg sandbag 70kg sandbag 115kg sandbag, almost, was a few inches away but just couldn't quite make it. All in all i'm really happy with this session, it shows the events are doable and in some cases the medium weights instead of lighter. sommet to work on. | ||

Cheers guys Was good first session, definitely gives me an idea of both the tactics (especially the medley!!) and what I need to train. Then have another bash at a session and see where i'm at. | ||

Front Squat bar x 10 60kg x 5 this felt tough 70kg x 5 80kg x 5 90kg x 5 100kg x 5 110kg x 5 122.5kg x 5 Pb Narrow Neutral Grip Pulldown 20kg x 10 40kg x 10 60kg x 10 70kg x 10 80kg x 10 bit of body english on last couple of reps Neutral Grip Overhead DB Seated Press 30lbs x 10 40lbs x 10 50lbs x 10 60lbs x 10 Have to say fairly happy with session. Was really not up for it this morning and fronties felt tough at start then got easier for a major Pb, previous Pb was 120kg x 2!! Elbow a bit iffy but felt ok on pulldowns so gave presses a go, but did not push it. | ||
