I might be tempted to pop along to Maloneys at some point this weekend to see what theyve got there because im in Hudds. Wont be Saturday though cause ive got tickets for Europes Strongest Man in Leeds.

Good work on the deads by the way.

I think the gear is locked away apart from when they do a session, but it is supposed to be a very good gym!

Cheers thingymabob

After a very slack week, i had my 1st events session today

Started on the log, and worked upto a 106 which was more of a strict than a push press, enjoyed this and definitely more in the tank.

Then stones, i f**kin hate stones only managed upto the 80, dont think ill ever enjoy these with my t-rex arms, but with some tacky and some technique it will improve.

Car deadlift was a Nissan Micra did 12 but that was very easy attempted it with 6 lads but failed miserably, struggled to get into a decent position as the handles were very low.

Tyre Flip 350kg - struggled like f**k with this my fingers were barely under it when my chin was digging into the tyre, managed it on around the 5th attempt when i found a grip and better leg position.

80KG Farmers very easy and could virtually run with them, will try heavier next week

All in all good fun and some was pretty decent considering its a 1st attempt, stones were dogs**t.

Maloneys in Huddersfield mate, a couple of lads that train in my normal gym are running a local comp and doing some training sessions, more of an introduction to strongman than anything at a serious level but a good laugh all the same, they have some great gear too.

Cheers dude, definitely feel there is a lot more there, feels much more natural than a barbell. Going to mainly work on stones and deads nextweek.
