Thanks Skip and Wilson.
Jack, someone has to have impressive wood.
5/26
lifted lots of stones
rolled my new big stone 1/2 way to my lifting area
My new stone is shaped kinda like NH or VT. When I stand it length ways it comes to my waist. I was able to get it off the ground a few inches today. My hands, wrists and elbows all need a break. My hands feel like I’m 80 years old.
Like the new log title.
Made me think of something like, “Eco-magnon’s Stone Age Log”.
Like the stone work, like the new title. Of course, my thoughts went something like “Deviant Stoner” or “Look at the size of my rock”.
Y’alls got radioactive rocks there in New Hampster. No, really (look up “Conway Granite”).
I think they might be contributing to your superhuman strength!
my wife won’t let me have tires and rocks in my yard
[/pout]
fun looking work. i am jealous
I’m singing the title of the log to Rush’s “New World Man”.

Looks like the makings of an outdoor squat rack…???

My fiance would encourage me to load the whole back yard with strongman implements but I have never been drawn to it. Moving bricks around the back yard sounds to much like what my Dad made me do when I wanted to play football…

You need help… sick puppy! 
Nice work nonetheless… weirdo!
Thanks all. I was in Philadelphia from Thurs to Mon night eating and drinking to much. So I decided to abuse myself for my sins.
6/1
deadlift 315 10x10
I haven’t touched a barbell for almost two weeks and this nearly killed me.

I wondered why I glow at night.

dude - I’m speechless, that’s some punishment! how long did it take you? and how long to pick yourself off the floor at the end?
I’m getting sympathetic DOMS.
Good work Steve. It is fun lifting heavy objects outside.
You would really like a Log Press I think- way fun and so many exercises you can do with it.
315x10x10 - good stuff here.
Soldog, took me 40-45 minutes. I wanted to stop after the 6th set. I came real close to vomitting and felt dizzy. I had to lie on the floor for 15 minutes before I dragged myself into the shower. And there was a lot of lying down between sets.
SFP, not much aches yet. I’m sure it will later.
Rick, I bet I’d like the log press. The videos of log pressing I’ve watched look like fun.
315 10x10 Steve you are a beat!
Good work on the deads, I’m wondering if I could do 315 5x5.
315x10x10… I just vomited… WOW
KMC,not sure I’m strong enough to be a beast but I have enough hair to be one. I was close to your stomping grounds this past weekend. I was on 95 right by NYC.
Joe,I’m sure you could do more then you think. Thanks.
Wilson,I may vomit thinking about it myself.
I’m not sure this type of training helps anything. But if you want to try something tough (stupid) put 50-60% of your max on the bar and either squat or deadlift it for a set of 20-30 or 10x10. Don’t plan on any other exercises.
Good ‘strong will’ training. Not sure it will raise your max, but it will make you a tougher SOB.
