I have a few rules when it comes to being a successful Strongman.
1) Always have a written plan. It should be written AT LEAST the day prior to training. This saves time trying to decide what you should do once you get to the gym, you don't have to talk to the voices in your head nearly as much and you have made a written contract with yourself as to what you WILL DO!
2) Always bring extra underwear to the gym.
I have not don The Conan's Wheel in so long that I forgot a Golden Rule of The Conan's Wheel. Measure Twice, Hit The Tree Nonce! I measured once and hit the tree twice. Next time I'll hang a bottle of Nose Torque from the leaves.
