Events with a full house
Doug and Kenny came down from Santa Rosa so we had 6 people doing events. Felt good to have a bigger group!
Started off with car deads
warmed up with bb deads
Car= Toyota Solara with “trunk full of shit” I think all my training partners can attest this was heavy!
handles far out 4 reps
handles in a bunch I think 12 or 13? couple wouldn’t have counted in contest I just started ripping it off the floor and did 7 in under 10 seconds. I’ll pace myself better next time and get 15
my quads got so damn sore from this and my ass!
Did a little work with the log. stopped early than Doug hit an awesome 225x3 strict press for a pr so I had to try 
225x4 PR! my 1rm is 230 haha Nice when you can get that little push. Every rep felt like a max
350 Hussafel, mainly working on my pick. I struggled big last time but now I just rip it off the ground.
Some farmers for 100’
Stones
300 20" stone to 53
3 reps in 60 seconds
2 reps
WAY to cautious I’ve finally figured out the lap on the bigger stones, since this was a HUGE pr not that long ago i gave it to much respect. I will attack it next week! I got 6 in me
great day!
I think you’ve got that stone figured out. Everything looked super smooth dude. I’m getting excited to see everyone throw down at nationals.

First deadlifts in months results in pr
I have been a bit scared to pull off the floor since it was feeling awful. I decided to work on what I think helps for stones, car deads, log press etc instead. Ive been front squatting for almost a month and its gotten boring. This was more of a confidence boost for me. I can do anything!
Deadlifts
135x5
225x5
315x3
405x1
495x1
565x1 20lb all time pr
495x5
BO rows 3x10
ring rows
ab pulldowns
training is going awesome!
love the strongman vid. That 20lbs deads PR is sick
20 lbs. Like a boss.
Thanks!
15 days…
Congrats on the DL PR man. You’re going to wreck that 600# race, haha.
Good luck at Nats man, kill it
