alright, here’s the deal. talked to kevin and he is more than willing to talk it up.
so this is the concept. much like they did over at EFS, post your questions for Kevin here, i will ask him the best ones, the ones that add the most value for the readers here at T-Nation, and will put them in an article and submit it to TC.
i won’t put any limiters on what you can ask, but try to keep it at least mostly on topic.

Maybe you can answer this one. What is the reasoning behind using somewhat of a traditional bodybuilding type split for his training? I’m just curious because I was under the impression that most strength athletes used upper lower splits, but I could be way off base here.
Has Kevin ever thought about making a deadlifitng video? Because since strongman is his job(read an article last month about it) wouldn’t this be a good way to make alot of money?
What gym lifts does he find helps strongman events the most? Other than deadlift, squat, and overhead press.
How does he incorporate conditioning into his workout if he does?
Does he see strongman becoming a mainstream sport in the US? If not why?
Does he use olympic lifts in his routine?
I have alot more but you are probably tired of my questions already. I just think it would be a great idea to put together a homemade deadlifting video. It would cost barely anything, and most guys who compete in strongman or any other strength sport would buy a video from such an amazing athlete.
I’d like to know how his training has changed since he made the Marunde interview and how he changes it to adapt for frequent contests and being on the road.
This has been popular lately, so might as well ask how he feels about benching in regards to strongman training.
And finally, just to stir up some controversy, how does he feel about the IFSA vs WSM split?
Any chance we could get him to convert? Between him and Derek Poundstone the US would be solid at worlds.
