Hope the bi gets better.I got mro back and the tendon is a partial tear.Not surgery worthy.FRUSTRATING nursing this stuff along isnt it

Thanks brotha..


It is super frustrating... I was making great progress on my DL, however it was kinda a wake up call. I was overtraining and I was neglecting other lifts. I have been so focused on my events for Nationals I have not really been paying enough attention to my "secondary" lifts.

This will give me an opportunity to focus more on lower body and I am also gonna throw in some stability. For right now I am just doing stuff that does not hurt... for example I DL'ed yesterday but didnt go up over 315 because my arm felt a little funny. I will still do some light stone work.. I cant neglect that all together. But things like the Yoke, which is my worst event.. I am going to be focusing heavily on that and light farmers for speed.

Well I went in Saturday for events and it was the worst workout I have ever had lol... I dont know what was wrong with me, honestly... weights felt heavy, I felt weak and I had no energy. What pissed me off the most is that for the first time I actually planned my whole week around my Saturday so I could make sure I was ready to go.

13" Log.. which by the way is the devil.
110 x 6, warmup
220 x 3
310 x 0
310 x 0 and hurt my back lol.

Yoke - hips are STILL feelin terrible but I found some excersises to loosen them up so hopefully they will help... soon... Pretty much only had like 240lbs on there and it was uncomfortable to walk. Then I added another 180lbs and couldnt do it. The pain has gotten ridiculous.

So ya thats not encouraging. I am not worried about my log, but the only thing really holding me back is the yoke. Gotta figure something out soon

Back still bothering me from my pathetic Saturday.

Flat Bench Press - There was no rhyme or reason to my madness today.
135 x 10
225 x 12
315 x 12
405 x 6
315 x 12

Seated Shoulder Press, inside grip to simulate log press - Couldnt stand with weight overhead yet.
Notable Lift, 305 x 1 Strict Press, I can definately see value in this excersise as an supplemental lift.

Upright Rows
95 x 10
135 x 10
155 x 10
185 x 8

Tricep Pushdowns
70, 80, 90, 100 x 10

All in all pretty weak workout.. I see to have no direction lately. Not a good thing with Nats coming up.

Took 2 Back Shots of myself this morning... post haircut lol. Neck was looking to scraggly yesterday to post them.

Anyways.. my buddy started a Strongman Apparel line called STONZ.

We are going to introduce it at the end of the month at the Capital City Classic in Baton Rouge, LA.

Here is a fitted cap I had done for myself... The most basic of the logo variations. I believe we did about 4 or 5 different styles.
