WILLSAN said:youve got to think about the spectators though? will they know what is going on with 2 sets of events happening at the same time? if they cant figure out whats going on if only 2 events going on they have questionable intelligence  | |||

| because its such a large comp why dont you(stop me if this is a s**t idea)put people into groups of 6-10 and do different events at the same time ie.1 group on overhead,1 group on truck pull etc etc. this way the comp will take no where as long and the spectators wont get bored of the same thing for an hour,just my opinion  | |||

edstudham said:This could be a really good thread! I have tried many types of training over the years, and used to do a lot of rowing before this so I think endurance is definately a big factor in strongman, as I guess a lot of you will notice a lot of events are becoming much mure cardio/endurance based. Personally I dont have a set routine, I train when my body feels ready. Usually it will be 2-3 gym sessions a week and 1 events day going through stuff that I havent trained in the week in the gym. I also think it is important to do a mix of high and low rep exercises. Low to get the strength and power up and high rep for hypertropy to force the mucsles to grow (3-5 sets of low reps going to near max, then one set of max reps at about 50-60% max). My usual routine is something like this Day 1 Chest and Biceps Day 2 Legs and back Day 3 Cardio and Heavy core work Day 4 Events Such as Log axle press etc. This is spread out over the weekand events is always something I havent trained in the week. I have found that all my lifts have flown up since just listening to my body and remembering the smaller muscles, like biceps, calves etc as they will always play a part in events. well f**k me listen to doctor ed! | |||

| its tricky but if you pull the bung out as far as it will come and then shove a screwdriver down each side to release the safety catches took me 3hrs to do 1 but once you know how the rest are easy | |||
