Saturday – Strongman Events
Well, I have decided to compete in South Dakota’s Strongest Man this March. I haven’t done some of the events before. My friends Jacob Dagel and Tim Feathers invited me to train with them and to test out the different implements. Here is what I did:
(Some of the weights, distances, and heights may be off a bit)
Yoke – 505 lbs for 100 ft, 575 lbs for 30 ft.
Sandbag – 180 lbs for 100 ft (pretty quickly, too)
Log – 180 lbs for 3 singles
Giant Dumbbell – 70 lbs for 3 sets of 1 per arm
Atlas Stones – 170 lbs to 54″ platform 2 times, 215 lbs to 54″ platform 2 times.
After this event day, my general thoughts are that my strength is there to handle the weights in the novice class, but I need to work on my conditioning more.

Daily “Selfie” – This is my Hodor shirt. Hodor is a character in Game of Thrones. He only says his name. That makes it funny…duh! Also, I got this at a thrift store.
Second Daily “Selfie” – I am pretty proud of these. These are the first images I have tried using filters on. Also, they are the first pictures that actually show off the work I have been putting in in the gym.
