Your new baby is beautiful!
That’s a pretty big baby to be jumping on you when benching though. Sweet, but fatal.
I love how he runs when you do your first pull.
My bf is literally wondering why the hell I’m laughing so hard right now. You get the funniest looks from your dogs.
You should’ve told the checkout dude that you were going for a World’s biggest quiche record.
Oh and I was wondering what DOH PR was, but I worked it out :)[/quote]
all dogs seem small after having my 155lb Mastiff. She was about a 1/3rd his size but is already getting bigger from all the food and exercise soon to be 1/2 his size
Yeah they think I am crazy, why wouldn’t I just run and tug on a rope?
light circuit of shoulder press hammer curls db raises
long day at work didn’t have much energy hate training late.

Yay for fractional plates, I’ll look all over the gym for those 2.5#s
Awesome PR, I didn’t know you snatched that much.[/quote]
haha I was using some .5lb plates i got for the 1lb pr hehe
thanks. I haven’t done them in awhile and am not very good but if i am focusing on highland games i will be doing a lot more explosive and olympic movements
weekends training
Saturday worked up to
610 yoke walk for 50ft i just hated every step. then it started pouring and was so damn cold the tacky would just not get warm
Sunday
Highland throwing
lots of standing throws with shot put technique is improving big time…
stones are going far this year!
did some light weight for distance this sucked i hate this event
did weight over bar got 10’ with the 56lb which is a pr and 12’ with the 42 also a pr
then some 14lb hammer throws, technique work. great day of throwing! think this year I will focus on highland games this year. Next comp is April 2nd
Mid way through the deadlifts I really felt it just give me some really nice intensity and sustained energy. No crash, hell 3 hours later I still feel great.
Log press
95x5
145x5
185x3
205x3
230x5 +10lb ALL TIME PR
YES YES YES!
haha I thought I did 4 and was upset then watched the tape and saw it was 5.
this is my first significant pr on the log press in about 2 years. first time I have surpassed a log press pr when I was 30lbs heavier. It feels like the beginning too.
kb swing snatches
military press 115 3x10
i was just so excited i forgot what to do the rest of the workout but don’t really care, I litterally walked a mile through mud past my ankles today which was damn tough wore me out! but took some new pre workout stuff I am trying and smashed the log press.
week 8 of coan/phillipi I failed 525 deadlift… I think my core is weak I threw straps and my suit on and got 545 i got 545 out of the cycle but I had to cheat to get it 3xbw deadlift I might do it next week and remember to video it.

Thanks, Yeah those videos are more a testament to the progression of my hair then my strength
Of course, that’s why I remembered the vid in the first place 0:-)
Awesome workout.
I can’t imagine even picking up a 315# stone sad face[/quote]
Thanks your too nice!
Well I didn’t lift it so I can’t either well I can imagine lifting it. when they get that big they are a bigger diameter and it throws me off. I need to make a light as I can 20" stone to get the movement down.
Woke up and forgot I planned on getting in a quick bench workout before going to breakfast SO in 20 minutes I did…
Close grip bench
135x5
155x5
185x5
205x3
235x3 < hard
add sling shot
235 2x10 wow that gives some serious pop! Really blasted my triceps
Pull ups 3x5 bicep joints need break after stones always. Going to have to switch days on this.
Went and ate brunch at my new favorite place. It is a drive but worth it. They put out a big plate of fresh organic strawberries when you sat down then I ordered Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon and they give you two silver dollar blueberry pancakes with more strawberries for free… All for 10 bucks! Of course everyone is full so I ended up eating 8 pancakes haha, good for my bulk!
Then I went to do highland throwing
Worked on Stone throws with a light stone And following through with a spin at the end. This will give me a few more feet if I get it down and really brining my left hand through to give me some more power.
Then hammer, working on a new grip
Did weight over bar with a tree branch that was about 18’ with the 28# to warm up for fun then a few at about 10’ with the 56.
More hammer little heavier
Some heavy weight for distance with the 56# this just sucks…
some light weight for distance with the 28#
Threw the heavier stone which is above contest weights at 26.5
