Training for strongman

[mtellin]

Anyone on here train for these? I'm trying to decide how to construct a log to train with, anyone have the specs on one? Or preferably built one themself and have tips/ideas etc?

Other than that I have a few stones I made myself, found a 600 lb tire, and I have a sled rigged up to work, not sure how much competition weight is I have 600 lbs on it. And I have NO idea how to emulate training for the conans wheel...

Hey B, I had actually emailed you a couple times a bit ago(mmt375 @ EF), didn't hear back from ya so I figured you got busy Although for all I know maybe you never got it LOL

it seems like a great way to train once strength levels are up to it .

I agree, I'm very curious to see how event training will affect my gym stregnth...especially with the atlas stones, I had the wrong figures for what diameter stone would give what total weight and they were made without a mold...so the lightest atlas stone I have is 265 lbs I'd imagine as deep as you have to go to pick these up it would help deads and squats!

LOL!!! It's no problem at all really, maybe you never got my reply to your email though...the last one I sent you was where I asked about doing my training days this way:

Tuesday: ME upper (or ME lower depending on what events trained)

Wednesday: AR

Thursday: ME lower and events (possibly ME upper, depeding on events trained)

Saturday/Sunday DE Full body

Get back to me whenever you can, congrats on the degree big man, I know from reading your posts on EF you've been waiting for this day for awhile now
