I had an excellent strongman Saturday today.

Log Vipers
210 x 3 x 3

Deadlift
495 x 3 x 3
585 x 1 (this is near my 1rm of 625# from a couple years back so this means I am getting my mojo back!)

Sandbag Carry 260 x 2 x 100'
with 100meter on the rowing machine: 63.8 seconds and 60.1 seconds (these were slow compared to the younger competitiors who had 37 seconds or so each, because my picks were slow as heck).

We also did 230 x 5sets x 12reps incline bench presses on a viking overhead press machine.

It was a good day of training!

Ww.
