Back and hernia both felt fine so, good day. I’m very scared of the car squat after seeing a video of it lol. It has a pick height of 46" so, pretty much a bottom position squat. Oh well, I think it will be fine. One our friends is now going to be competing, Kyle Jones. He’s 204 but, he’s competing in my class and intimidates the hell out of me lol. Kyle is not only strong as hell, he is also a great athlete. [/quote]
Is the pick height fixed at 46"? Cause that’s barely a half squat for me! This could be one of the few events where it pays to be short as hell. lol!
btw, loving the training videos. Keep up the hard work!

From my understanding it’s fixed at 46" lol. Brute Strength Gym put up a video on facebook regarding it and it looks miserable haha. I’m sure you’ll do well! I cant seem to get under the damn thing lol. If you see us around, holler at us!
2/3/13 Events
Press Medley - 225 axle/210 log
I ended up getting 3 and 3 in 60 seconds. It was a PR by 1 rep on the log
Truck Tire deadlift - 15" pick height
worked up to 550 and pulled it for 5 in around 15 seconds. May be able to squeeze out 10 in a minute…at least thats what I’m hoping for.
Called it a day. We are all feeling very beat up today. We haven’t had a real deload in a while. Less than two weeks out so, we have to take it easy. Proud of everyone for working hard even though we are beat up.
Sorry to flood this thread/log with pictures but these are the most recent ones that i’ve really liked and kinda edited, made black and white, sepia, etc, I think they turned out pretty cool!!! Hope you guys enjoy!!!
Awesome awesome pics - you mind if I link back to them and this thread on another forum?
I’ll speak for PC in case he doesn’t see this. I doubt he would mind, the more traffic the merrier lol.

GO AHEAD MAN!! Thx for even doing it!!! I hardly check this anymore so, sorry it takes a while for me to reply and such
Well here’s a quick run down of the Brute Strength Strongman show…
Day 1
Event 1-Circus DB, I got 11 reps, on the score card got put down as 10 oh well
Event 2- Yoke, 80ft, 15.2 seconds
Event 3-Truck Tire Deadlift, 16reps
Event 4-Car squat got changed to Giant Tire Squat, got 22 reps
After Day 1 I was sitting in 3rd place overall, yoke had taken my back down to 7th or 8th and I clawed my way back up to 3rd
Day 2
Event 5-Axle/Log Medley, got 9 reps (was in 2nd overall at this point)
Event 6-Frame Carry, 80ft, 11.07 sec (my best farmers were 17sec this was first time doing frame carry)
Event 7-Stone over bar, 11 reps
i ended up in 3rd place overall, i was 1/2 point away from 2nd place, i was in the top 2-4 on every event besides the moving events so I know where I need to improve, It all came down to stones 1st-4th place and the guy in 2nd got 11, guess how many i got? 11…so I have to settle with 3rd place, mosley got 1st and kicked ass, owens did well but did not finish bc of back injury, im very proud of all of us, Ill post videos as soon as possible, thanks to everyone following!
