I think I got a card and some Japanese whisky for fathers day.
Steve- training looking good- you are gonna have so much fun training with all those implements.
there is power squat at my gym I have a bunch of bands I should mess around with that.
Think more like from 48" initially. Get it comfortable on your chest and set it down slow. At some point you will be able to go down and then back up. Even if just to your lap at first.
My first stone for training was about 335 lbs. Homemade. I rolled it onto a porch that was a little over 36" high. First few times I just picked it up and got used to holding it on my chest and extending up before putting it back on the porch. Then I got brave and started doing partial negatives. Then I couldn’t come out of negative and had to roll it back up onto the porch. Then I got it and started doing reps without actually letting go of it. I got to be really good at stones, especially the first three.
T-handle swings 50x8x25
One arm timed holds x 3 sets each side
Circus db rows 77x2 sets
I just felt like getting some blood moving and work on my grip. My son double overhanded deadlifted 455 no problem tonight for fun. I can barely double overhand 405.
My oldest hit log press and bench tonight. I didn’t just want to sit around and spot him so I worked grip while I wasn’t needed. Timed holds and pinch grip mostly.
