Little change up today... Went in to do regular standing military but my boy broke out the swiss bar so we could practice the neutral grip.
Did a couple warm ups and 3 work sets. 140x5 155x5 170x8. The 170 was supposed to be my last set, but I went ahead and did 205x2 for shits and giggles and to see where I'm at. 205 on that swiss bar was harder than 225 in regular MP. Oh, we had fat gripz extreme on the bar too...
Then I did 5 sets of 10 on bodyweight dips, and the same on neutral grip chins.
DONE. Strongman training on actual implements on Sunday!

Today was my dead day. Did three warm up sets then: 240x5 280x5
and 315 for 8. Followed that up with five sets of good mornings working up to 135lbs, and 5 sets hanging leg raises.

Good lifting matey 
My back would probably snap with 1 plate either side on deadlifts I am a fan of neutral grip chins too... nice to change things around but I tend to use that grip most. Keep the updates coming it's good to see your change in training.

I have kind of an odd work schedule this week so it looks like I'll only get three training days in... Oh well what can you do? Gotta make money right?
SO I combined my overhead press day with bench day today. I'll do my dead lift day on Wed, and squats on Fri. Hopefully sat. will be some strongman training.
Nothing super exciting today, it start's my "3" week so a little heavier but not bad. Up to 165lbs on OH press, I did 8 reps with a few left in the tank. Bench press I also did 8 reps but with 300lbs.
I warmed up with 3 sets of BW chins for 10 reps each. then did the OH press. Then did 3 sets of 10 on wide grip lat pulldowns and moved onto the bench. After bench I did 4 sets of 10 on flat DB presses and same on DB rows. Then I got the fuck out of dodge.
I need to work on conditioning so I'm going to do some hill sprints in front of my house a couple times this week. nothing crazy, maybe 5-8 sprints the first time and see how it goes. The hill is not awesome, it's just the little hill my house sits on, not much of a grade at all, but there is a little one so it will work for starters at least. Going to do 40yds up the hill, walk back down and repeat.
Going to work on abs and arms at the house a couple times too this week.

Front squats today on my "3" week still. Couple easy five rep warm ups and my last set was 205 and I cranked out six. Then I did 5 20 rep sets on leg press with 3 4 5 6 and 6 plates. Finished with some glute ham curls.

I have a love/hate relationship with them. I hate them because they are hard, but love them because it doesn't fuck with my back, and hits the shit out of my quads. I think the front side loading will really help with strongman also.

Trained with a couple friends today. Warmed up with some deads and ended up pulling 405 for 3 which isn't a lot for most people but pretty damn good for me.
Went outside and did some reps with the stone. A few off the ground and then I did some reps where I shouldered it, lapped it and shouldered it to each side once.
Finished off with a soul stealing medley of prowler pushes and sled drags back to back.

Hey TT I have some buddies you'd get along with well. TT your gym has a stones set? should list em up for directory I'm compiling. Hot fun in the sun eh?

Well we only have two stones and one of them is almost unliftable. We do have some other stuff but it's owned by members so it's not a free for all for anyone. I'm seriously considering running a gym out of my garage for me and a close circle of friends. Power rack, deadlift platform, etc.
Hot fun in the sun is right. If I learned anything this day it was that my conditioning SUCKS. I need to get my cardio better yesterday. So to start off with I'm doing HIT cardio twice a week. Either the sled drags or prowler or hill sprints. Doing deads on Wed. I think I'll finish off with the sled drags.

Today I combined my Press and bench days again. Started with bench this time though and did 315 for 5. Tendonitis is kicking my ass again so I'm leaving quite a bit in the tank. This is my 5/3/1 week.
Went on to OH press and banged an easy 6 reps with 175.
Did all my benches with the fat gripz extreme except my last set. Here is a vid of my "3" set:

I like the grips. They make me hold my wrist in a better more straight position. That and you have to grip the bar harder so its a little harder overall. Its loke training with a thick bar or axel or something, it just takes more muscle.
Cool.gonna find a set because I could use a way to build grip strength on an injured hand ..thanks TT

i like the idea of them holdin the wrists better. years ago i was doing reverse curls and hurt my right wrist. that was prob 7-8yrs ago....ive had probs ever since.
im gona have to find a pair n test them out.
I guess I'm the last to know. You didn't tell me you were switching to strongman. Are you doing the show at the beach?

Well I'm not really "switching" at least not permanently... I'm going to do this contest in June, and another one more local in July. Then I want to hit a BB show by the end of the year.
No it's not at the beach, it's pretty land locked...

Finally got some actual strong man training in on Saturday! I did some exhausting yoke walk/frame carry medleys I think with around 400lbs on each.
Then went down and did some axle clean and presses, log clean and press and finally some stones. I think I did 185 on the axle, 255 on the log, and I beasted a 285lb stone. Not too bad for my first time out.
