Alternating log carry and sandbag sprint could make for some nasty sessions
Think:
30s log carry Sprint to sandbag
30s sandbag carry Sprint to log
repeat
Time could be substituted for distance of course, actually it could work even better that way
Probably should have emptied it and just used all sand instead. I took a shower straight after
I can make multiple! My mum likes sheep poo to use in her gardens so i haveblots of bags i can use and fill them up to various weight. I also put a couple of 5kg plates i have lying around in my sandbag. Don’t know why this didn’t occur to me before. Got the idea from @I_Luc orginally except go to the store and tape a bag of sand i bought from there. This sandbag is free!
Hey Young Duke thumbs up.
That is really awesome stuff there.
Those other strongmen hanging around here have to be carefull.
Next up is a smaller log to carry overhead.
How about some rocks in various shapes and weight to play around with.
In my comp, the last event for the Press medley was a natural stone @ 190lbs. Only one person was able to press it and it was one of the most impressive things I have ever seen. Point of the story, definitely play with some rocks outside.
Interesting read! “So simple and so concrete.” I think that’s one of the things I’m enjoying about powerlifting. Most of my athletic focus in on BJJ, which can get ridiculously intricate and, quite honestly, stressful. By contrast, I love the change of pace I get spending a full 45-60 minute session just working on a single lift or two.
Pullups
Did 50 total pullups
30 normal and 20 negatives.
I took minimal time between sets to work conditioning. I got 8 on my first set!! I’ve always been shit at pullups and the most i ever got is ten. A few months ago i struggled to get 4, I’ve done zero pullups since then and i’m the heaviest i’ve ever been so i think it’s The improved grip strength from my CoC gripper. Cool
After pullups messed around with sandbag loading onto back of my ute.
Its weird to think that just one little tool (CoC gripper) improves your grip so rapidly. I mean the website does say “The fastest route to a stronger grip.”
Definitely worth the small amount of money i pay for them. Not to be a CoC saleman or anything but i’d highly recommend it to anyone.
