[kingc_79]

i made a huge pr for me today on events. we were jus runnin thru them to check em out. and since i will have to do stones i wanted to see what i could do. b4 today i had picked up a 185 once and barely budged a 230 from the ground. but i loaded the 230, 245, and the 265. i couldnt believe it. i was so happy. i really didnt think i could load a 230lb stone. man i love this stuff.

(still not impressed w/my overhead but the stone made up for it)

 

[kingc_79]

and thanks guys for pushing me so hard.(clint and jason)

I didn't either till I went to a place that sold schedule 80 steel and bought it Cost about $10. You just need some really really strong collars.

Ahh... The thought of slicing an expensive olympic size barbell made my stomach churn

He was gifted with a big muscle...heart. Anyone who trains with us will have a big one. If you don't have lots of heart...you can't stick with it... You have to REALLY want it in this game.

So much of bodybuilding is how mucy you prepare for the weeks/months/years prior to the contest as well as what the judge is looking for. A lot of powerlifting is prep done over the last few weeks/months/years prior to the contest too...AND it has a good bit of 'how much do you want to win'.

Stongman...it is very easy for the stronger MIND to win. Being able to tell your body that it will NOT quit will get you a LONG way. It is pushing through all the pain. It is pushing your body till it literally collapses. When you train for Strongman you learn a lot about your body. You will learn that the mind can put the body in places that it doesn't want to go...and probably doesn't belong... You will probably survive though...

Yup, people don't usually understand that the main muscle that seperates the guys at the top of their game from "the rest" is their heart. Everything begins and ends there.

Your heart can take you to the top, and it can also keep you at the bottom. depends how big it is.

and your heart gets bigger with encouragement........"reckless words pierce like a sword, but the tounge of the wise brings the healing" Proverbs 12:18


My favorite verse......Remember the things you say to others, cause it can make them or break them....
