Saturday was strongman training. We went through car deadlifts (side handles) up to 800 pounds, sandbag carries (250 pounds??), atlas stones over 56" bar, and one other thing I can't remember. I did much better with the stones this time. The 250 pound stone was flying over the bar, but I'm still a little off on the 300 pound stone. Just gotta work on that technique and I'll get it. Monday I did some squatting (in my new shoes! I will tell that story soon), and tonight I did some benching, rowing and overhead pressing. Shoulders are still immobile and I can feel my lower back extending every time I push a bar over my head. It's frustrating, and it feels like my shoulders go numb right at the top of the press. It's really weird, and I wish I had the money to go to someone who knows what they're doing and get some massage and corrective exercises. If I want to compete in strongman, overhead pressing is a huge part of that. No one benches in a strongman competition. Back at it on Thursday night with deadlifts.
