1st Strongman Competition!!!

[kingc_79]

did the events for the 1st time today for times and heres how it went. i know, they are slow, but 1st time, need to work on form.

Farmers--100lbs X 160' w/1 turn 23.41 sec
tire flip---550lbs X 60' 45.12(really need to work on this)
super yoke--400lbs X 80' 19.22
log press---140lbs - 4 reps for two sets

now that i know i can finish the events i need to work that time down.

have to work on tire even more b/c found out that it may be 80' instead. But i should have my tire in a couple days and i'm having the farmers and log made now and will be having yoke made soon as i get pic of good one.

Once you get proper equipment it will help a lot, plus it's great that you get to train w/Clint.

One of my training partners just built a log for us to use, and it's helping my log press a lot. Hopefully we'll soon have a full set of atlas stones to play with too, we should have some being poured for us now (fingers crossed).

I'll be competing in Nashville as well-- shoot me a PM and I'll keep a lookout for ya, good luck with the training.

will do, what class you iin

 

[Cuthbert]

I'm competing in the open lightweight, under 200lbs division. I started about 4 months ago, and my partners (the contest promoters) talked me into doing the open division instead of the novice for my 1st meet.

I'm <almost> where I want/need to be, so this will be interesting.

Good luck, see you in Nashvegas.
