lol I know, i didn’t even realize it till after I did it
Ok lets do some math here… 115lb log+90+50+20+10+10+ collars equals 295+ not 270!! haha pretty pumped I pressed 295 buddies!
LOL … good work bro
Math Success!
ummmmm my mistake they are 15kg bumpers. haha sure put my foot in my mouth! oh well i barley missed 285 on Saturday felt off. Strength was there
Going to work on weak events focus is conditioning, getting leaner, circus db, max axle, and yoke. probably not doing another strongman comp till August 18th. I am doing a highland games on April 14th but am not training for it at all. Still think I have a good shot at winning the under 200s lol

First event day back
Did Californias Strongest Man last week but pretty sure everyone knows that already.
Log press
95x5
145x5
185x3
225x3
255x1 with an awful clean
285x a bunch of bullshit the first time in my life I was having trouble cleaning the log i think my upper back is a bit worn out and i couldn’t pull it in tight to me. Got a decent clean did a odd split jerk thing had it locked out tried to get my feet back together and lost balance and had to bail. Oh well strength is there.
clean each rep
205x8 in 60 seconds 1 motioned. I think the last two I pressed normal. These will do me good in the long run
I am done working on max log for a bit. Going to give my axle some attention in case that is what comes up in August I know if it is log I am good and can easily prep for that in 12 weeksAlso BIG attention on circus db. Stupid thing
Axle power cleans
123x3
143x3
tried to snatch 173 lol grip held but i don’t know how to snatch so it turned into a wide grip power clean that landed above my head and got pressed out. Funny i think my best snatch is 175.
193x3 annnnnnnd my wrist got jacked
I had already tweaked it doing arm over am at CSM but didn’t really think about it, should have been wearing wrist wraps! hurt to flip burgers I made that night lol
Yoke 60ft
330x1
470x1
belt
540x2 decent speed good starting point this will be hammered
Excellent
