A Giraffe Amongst Gorillas - My Strongman Log

[bmontgomery87]

inb4 that dumb ho from colorado comes in to say

"a toboggan is a sled *******"

[Raigs]

I will also be doing some decently heavy deadlifts off boxes (I'm sure Wade will bench press whatever number I hit + 1 rep next week though )

Follow his log :P

Lol at all that gear you use That has to add another 5-10 pound to the lift

[bmontgomery87]

That's FAR from gear...that's just normal stuff!!!

I'm so confused

It's your sleep deprivation

[bmontgomery87]

It's your sleep deprivation

was he talking about tiger balm, skully, etc?

I am pretty damn tired. Praying that my caffeine doesn't induce another one of those awful headaches while I'm training today.
Chris has pretty much laid it out there, and I either need to put pounds on my total, or start peppering thine angus.

[MakeGoBoom]

skully adds 27.3 lbs to bw... fact

Whats the protocol for DL today?

[thom2355]

Whats the protocol for DL today?

I assume low volume and not having anything to do with front squats and trap bar deads....

[NC_Tarheel]

Whats the protocol for DL today?

Beltless pulls @455 X 10 singles with 90 sec between sets

Fronts/Trap - I haven't talked to Wade yet but I would guess 285-300 front squat and maybe go 500ish trap

Block Pulls - 530 for a few singles with the smaller axle

I assume low volume and not having anything to do with front squats and trap bar deads....

What color socks am I currently wearing?

[NC_Tarheel]

What color socks am I currently wearing?

Trick question.....



The answer is you're not wearing socks.



Everyone knows that strongmen/powerlifters are too fat to put on socks without a spotter or reverse bands.

Real answer is three shades of green Dickies work socks.
