[b fold the truth]

I am feeling my oats again. I'd say my hamstring is about 90% or so right now...feeling much better. I can't push the volume just yet but I am feeling more comfortable with the heavier weights.

Kingc had a darn good day too. He needs to lay off the Deli foods though

215 Farmers

235 Farmers. It was rough on the first 5', then he dropped them. Picked them back up and went over 50' more...once he got his pace he made it look rather easy!!!!

Weight For Height: I think that his were MUCH more fun to watch than brian747478's last week. Heaven forbid if they are both here...(can't wait to see Cheese try these...lol)

 

[b fold the truth]

Despite how he may feel...he did a good job on the Stones today. We ARE seeing progress and hopefully we have found a weakness and can correct it.

That DARN 185 stone...again and again...

Take off 6" and he clears it by 4"...lol

185 Stone to a barrel with 2 tires...

 

[b fold the truth]

Nefi set a few Pr's today too.

Farmers Holds with 125 in each hand...5 second PR!!!

She got to be the first to flip her new tire...about 300-350 pounds. 350 probably. It is easy...but not a JOKE to flip...
We worked on her form a bit after these reps and it looked MUCH better, MUCH safer, and MUCH easier too...

Here was my crew today...getting ready for the Weight for Height. I guess that I should have been in the middle and had someone else take the pic huh?

Great job today guys...can't wait till Saturday!!!!

b, you're looking like your old self again. Leaner and bigger, from what I can tell?

And king's looks like he is growing. Was his ass playing music?

 

[tuc biscuit]

Nice;

. You're getting bigger and leaner every time I see pics of you

. To me you look a bit flat footed on the throws ( I have done a lot of throwing and the power comes from the legs) imo

. I find the angle and height with which kingc wears his hat on the farmers to be quite amusing.

Thanks man..I think that I have gained at least 8-10 pounds back since the Bluegrass on the 19th.

king always seems to have that hat on sideways just a bit....

tuc biscuit: Yes, you are right. I am a little flat footed. I need a solid ring for a handle...the chain and rubber handle is having TOO much give to it when I throw it...and I think this is taking away a lot of my explosive power. I'll try to video them the next time I do them and post it... I appreciate the help.

thanks bud........... that really means a lot too me coming from you guys......... but you aint looking to shabby yourself. your incredibly thick to be 175 lbs........... when you get over 200, you'll look like a monster.

That is about how deep I've always taken them. The white tape on the rack shows 40"...which is where I did my chain suspended GM's from...

t3c: I really don't care much for the rounded back GM's. The amount of weight that I have to use when doing them rounded is so much smaller than with arched... I get lots of rounded back work from doing events. Notice that I have cut out every gym lift except my main one...there isn't much point in doing a full workout THEN doing events...

just out of curiosity what size is nefi's tire, it looks like a 198 off of a front loader/backhoe but i could be mistaken. i still havent weighed mine so i am just tryin to compare. mine is a brand new 20.5-25 michelin. i think it is 400-500 compared to other tire manufacturers but michelin dosnt post its weights. and great work, i love the idea for the stones i may have to build me a thing like that

 

[trinity73]

Let me just say I am very impressed with you guys!! Everyone is looking great....especially Nefi. That chick can kick butt!! Very proud of you girl!

[jasonaa97]

Great job everybody. I have to hurry up and get better so that I can come back and train. It's killing me to not be there. Hopefully by Saturday I will be ready.

 

[b fold the truth]

OreoPL: Hers is a 20.5/25...12 ply I think. It appears to be in near new condition.

Trinity: Nefi is setting PR's on every event every week...blows me away.

Jason: You HAVE to be ready by Saturday...HAVE TO.
