So proud of Rob, he's just competed in his first Strongman competition on Sunday (South Lincolnshire's Strongest).

Probably one of the lightest guys in his group, but pushed his way up the score board on a few events, especially the Yoke (4th out of 13 on that).💪

Axle Deadlifts 160kg, Axle Overhead press 70kg, Yoke run 180kg (30metres), 3Ton Hummer truck pull (30m), and Atlas Stone run (40, 50, 65, 80, 100kg).

Be careful, strongman comps are addictive 🤗

My overhead press is my worst lift.
Some overloaded, locked-out presses are helping my confidence. When throwing weights up above your head, having the confidence to commit fully to the movement makes a massive difference!

I worked up to 65kg, which is 15kg more than I can normally press overhead!
The weakest part of my lift is the press from my shoulders to the lockout position. Before doing these 'pre-locked out presses' I thought my lockout out hold was weak too, but apparently it isn't too bad 😏.
This means I need more work on the rack position and shoulder presses, with the knowledge that I can support the weight once overhead!

When the boss puts on an awesome strongman training afternoon, it would be rude not to join in!

Lovely to see so many PTS members giving it their 'all' too💪 Anyone living within a mile radius of PTS could probably hear us all cheering each other on!

Having a quick play with the carframe deadlift. Loaded 200kg X10, there's more in the tank! New favourite toy 😁💪💪

I don't usually consume a pre-workout. But it is Christmas, so why not!.
Now it's time for a quick gym session 💪 and then over to mum's for good food 🍲.
Wishing you all good health and good cheer xx

I wanted something light and cheary for the window at the end of my kitchen. I've had this pretty material for years so decided to make my own curtain. It's a shame I didn't have enough to make a pair of curtains, but I quite like the banner effect which let's more light in. I forgot how much I like sewing stuff! 🧵✂️ @ Northampton, Northamptonshire

I can be very lazy if I don't go to the gym to do my training, so am making the most of Ali's online daily exercises. Yesterday's was Turkish Get Ups, and I managed 25 per side, so I wanted to challenge myself this morning to do more! I managed 30 pairs this time.
I warmed up by jogging up and down my hallway and stairs, then did Ali's Tuesday challenge of 5 rounds of (10 squats & 5 push ups). I hope my poor old house can take all of this abuse 😜😂
Without my normal powerlifting and strongwoman training I am out of my comfort zone, and feeling rather low. But we are all in this together, preferably at 2 metre distance or more 🤧, so it's not the end yet!

Good luck to everybody that is competing at PTS East Midlands Strongest Novice this weekend.
I will be helping 😁, but not lifting 😇.
