Hi. I’ve gained a huge interest in strongman recently. I did my first competition last week and broke a national record (not in america). A lot of my pears said i have potential to do really well in this sport so it’s given me motivation to strive to compete internationally.
I’m buying some Strongman equipment next week and would like to know how i should set up a training program. The equipment i have access to are; Stones, Logs, Farmers Walk/Yoke & Thick bars. I can simulate anvil / conan’s wheel type lifting if i need to fit it in.
Anyway, im going to take the next couple of days to try sort out a strongman strength base program. Any ideas you can throw around at me would be great, thank you guys.
I’ll throw in my ideas so far;
Previously leading up to my first competition i basically did a customized sheiko 37 with back work twice a week and traps / grip strength & bi’s (hammer).
What i was thinking is something like this;
Monday - Overhead/Squats
Tuesday - Upperback/biceps
Wednesday - Deadlifts
Thursday - Off
Friday - Overhead/Squats
Saturday - Moving events
Sunday - Off
Basically leading up to a comp all static events will be done on monday, wednesday or friday; axle, log, circus db & deadlift variations etc. And Saturday will be my moving events; yoke, farmers, truck pull etc.
any tips would be helpful, thank you!!
