It also means for me the weight is a little lighter and I can feel strong in terms of speed and how I attack the weight.

Not sure if it was the deadlift, the high pulls or sleeping funny but my traps / neck / upper back are all kinds of jacked up today. Will need to try and clear that with some conditioning later.

The visa process can be difficult to migrate your way though. There are a number of migration agents who can help with the visa options and potentially jobs where companies will sponsor.

These may look stupid (when I do them) but of upper back soreness is anything to go by, they deff do something.

Sandbag to shoulder tonight.
Used the 55KG slam ball, the 62KG bag and the 80KG bag. Did one after the other each round for 7 or 8 rounds. Did 20 mins.

Alsruhes sandbag ebook is out. Ive bought it, looking forward to reading it and trying some of the sessions.
It looks like I’ll need a middleweight bag, or to modify a lot of the sessions, because i can barely pick up the 200 every minute but lots of the sessions involve carrying or shouldering every minute!
Maybe i’ll luck out like you and find a used Cerberus nearby!

Hanging out and watching strongman yesterday (and will be doing that today too) has lead me to a couple of conclusions.
- I am in pretty good shape for my age.
- I need to get a lot stronger

Wrapped and strapped for these. Bloody elbow. Presses were solid and rows were just hard on the lungs.

I have a lot going on at work and at home right now, so will not be on here much for a while. I will still post up my sessions in my log but won’t be reading others or commenting for a bit. Keep training hard everyone and I’ll check in with you at some point.
