2016 has been a productive strongman season returning back to the sport. In June I took third place in the Open SHWW with United States Strongman. In September I won the HWW America's Strongest Master with Strongman Corporation. I would like to continue to make improvements and push my performance considerably for next year.
As of right now, I have no competition plans until next year. I am not sure what they will be but am using this down time to address some weaknesses, particularly 12" log and circus DB. Grip training will return as well.
From 10/31/16
Chilly, early morning doing work. Just getting out of bed and into the routine is half the battle. I am a firm believer that listening to your body is critical. My body just isn't feeling the heavy weights right now. What it is feeling is warm blankets, sleep and the junk. Went in to the gym because it's the right thing to do.
Rolling/Mobility
Log
90, 4x5
My only goal here is to work on staying tight and everything firing together. At 90 lbs it all feels great. Add 100 lbs and it's total freak out and technique goes out the door.
Light Grippers
COC 1.5 - 3x10
And it all ended with some cleaning of the gym.
Going through the motions is half the battle so today was a success.
