My first comp was on my birthday, funny August 20th is my moms birthday too.
Thats how I do it haha.
Of course bug away. Fairly straight forward events. The clean on the axle and log can be hard to learn
the sled drag just do some sort of backwards sled drag practice it, they are brutal
deadlift you know how to do that
Stones practice stones or I’ve been putting bumper plates on a loading pin and it mimics the movement fairly well.
Glad you gave a nice dog a home. Wish more people would take on rescues rather than go to breeders for pedigree puppies and kittens.
So you’re getting serious about the strongman eh? Cool!

Puppy! So cute. That was kind of you to rescue the muffin.
I’m a dog person myself. Nice!
I like all the cardio work going on. I think most of us can go a long way with just push-ups, pull-ups and single leg BW stuff. I stayed busy with that sort of thing for 6 months before I felt like I really had to join a gym.
What are you doing to that tire? There seem to be so many options.
Trust me when I say, I would NOT have kept the dog if she wasn’t well behaved. She makes it easy…and those ears…oh my. 
She MUST have some sort of beagle/lab in her, because EVERY TIME we get to the edge of the forest line, she stands solid with her legs back and tail up. I have to physically pick her up and away from the spot, lol…Hubby is excited to see if he can finally have a hunting dog. The dog he grew up with was a one shot wonder. The first shot of the gun and he was off to home.
Kalle- THANKS!!!
check out the link I posted…it has the events on it. Still pretty straight forward though…I’m making a ‘shopping list,’ of stuff to scope out in classifieds and stuff 
Cal- YESSSSSSS…after all this time I am committing damnit. Even if I have to force Maschy and Veg to compete with me. (that would be FUN!!!) I emailed the promoter to make sure there is a women’s division.
ppuff-Do you like the cardio? I never thought I was ‘that guy.’ But I secretly enjoy it. And cardio doesn’t have to be on a boring machine! I decided that I want to be strong AND fit. I always really SUCKED at the fit part.
AM:
jog/walk intervals with doggy…I think the dog needs more conditioning work too!!
1 hr total that we were out…also took a detour through the trail in the woods…LOVE THAT!
I’m not really following c25k. Jogg/walking once a week adding a minute on each time. YA!
PM:
‘playing in the backyard.’
No rhyme or reason…just doing random stuff to keep moving…
shuttle runs
1 arm push presses
5 sec wind sprints, lol
jump rope
high kicks
butt kicks
dog also loves sprints…but I out run her after 2-3 times.
If I’m going to do more conditioning stuff, I wonder if it should me more formal, so I can keep track of progress.

I did! Thats the events I was commenting on if briefly. Switching back and forth each rep from axle to log each rep could throw some people off. Whats your current barbell push press at?
for your conditioning start pulling some type of sled or tire/etc backwards. Its tough and specific
Let me know if you have specific questions.
Keep bugging Masch and Veggie to sign up plenty of time to get ready!
Oh, my bad…THanks again Kalle!!
I didn’t even see the motorcycle drag…which works perfectly, because I’d say my tire is about 150lbs…I could easily make it heavier if needed. I have a car tie strap thingy I can use… Sounds like a good way to train the hammies, which I need more of anyway.
YAY an excuse to train push presses…love those things <3
last time I played around it was like 115 for reps.
FOOD today:
1130am
2 scooper shake
1pm- 6 oz ckn
broccoli
330- 4 hard boiled eggs(whites)
a V8
carrots
guac
I know, random.
7pm- 10 oz pork chop
mushrooms onions
830- greek yogurt
So hungry! you know WHILE your eating, you can tell that you are still going to be hungry after your done? Even though you had seconds?? whats up with that?
Wow I missed alot! Strongman comp do eet!
Jersey isn’t that far off from MTL. If you make it there I’ll def try to come down and cheer for ya.
GO MIMS!!
Aww I’ll be with you in e-spirit MiM. Can’t be awesome like Maschy and Veg and Mainie =(
It’s in Jersey??? Might have to make a road trip!!!
love the cardio
You should do this strongman comp and tear it up
give some new purpose to all that hard work.
NJ is close enough.
do work MIM
awwwwwwwwww
Feeling the LURV!!! <3 <3 <3
THANK YOU TO ALL!!! Feels good to FINALLY commit…
the guy emailed me right away and as long as he has 5 females by the dealine, then it’s good. so far it’s me + 3 other girls that are showing interest.
Whatever. Even if I train my ass off and there’s no comp in the end then I will know that I did my best and had FUN training!
Training–
a1) Front squats- 4x8xbar…I know…but my quads don’t know if there is weight on the bar or not. And they sufficiently worked going ATG…
a2)DLs- 5x3x135,155,175, 195,205
Happy with my DLs! I don’t train them nearly enough, so I’m always happy when I can leave off where I ended. I know my form sucks, my hips rise first, etc…but sometimes I feel like, SCREW it!!!
…I just want to pick this heavy thing up off the floor.
b1) DB sldls- 3x8x60s
1x8x155(barbell, just to see) most I ever did with that…felt awesome!!!
c1) rack chins- 4x8
c2) haney shrugs- 4x8x40lbs?? I dunno…it was on the smith…
face pulls- 2x15x25
rope curls- 2x12x25
hammer curls- 2x12x20s
hypers- 2x15
ab machine- 2x20x105
bike and butt work later…
Your form doesn’t suck on those! Hips come up a bit at first, sure, but that’s not that bad. Lockout was STRONG!
LWI MiMsie!
Bike and butt work later… that’s the shit I like to hear.
Keep killing it Hon, shrugging in the Smith is some Big League stuff right there.
Form looked fine to me!
