Louise Townsend did her first Strongman Corporation Canada nationals.

I first started working with Louise after Strongman Corp Ontario provincials. Since then she’s made so much progress! We knew going into day 1 circus dumbell was going to be too heavy so saved her energy for the deadlift event, she was able to pull 325lb for 5 reps (pr) and just missed on grip after that. We found not using straps made her deadlifts much easier with a faster set up. The sandbag event was a pr with her carrying a heavier bag (175lb) farther then she did in training and never having lifted one over 100lb till the starts of her prep. Day 2 she gave it everything she had on farmers with a gutsy performance and never giving up. Stones were always going to be a battle but she went into with a great attitude and just came up a little short.

We’re going to use the offseason to build and come back better next year!

5th place finish for Scott Noble at Strongman Corporation Canada nationals in 120, just half point back of 4th. It was a very close comp with the podium spots up for grabs right up the last event.

Day 1
3 reps on the heavy db (200lb) for the event win. Deadlift was exactly what he hoped for getting 605lb for a 20lb life time pr! Sandbag he was able to get a solid 5th.

Day 2
Started off really well coming in 2nd in the farmers. Stone was a tie with a lot of guys that secured his top 5 finish in a very strong group of 14.

Overall outstanding performance with a less than ideal prep having to nurse a particularly torn bicep for most of the prep!

Great performance from Brad getting 🥉 in the u120kg at Strongman Corporation Canada nationals and an Arnold Sports Festival presented by KSM-66 invite!

Day one started with 4 reps on the lighter dumbbell (180lb) good enough for 4th place. The deadlift is as a 50lb pr to tie for 5th. Sandbag was an outstanding performance getting the event win.

Day 2
Grip gave out and he fell but was still fast enough for 5th on farmers. 365lb stone was a 25lb pr and tied him for 3rd on the event.

I’m very impressed with his performance and all the work he’s put in this prep.

Proud of the hard work she puts into every prep and happy I get to be part of her journey!

Got an early invite to next years worlds so hopefully she can defend her title there.

Perfect day for 9/9 and 🥇

Squats had a bit of a hick up in prep. She missed 130kg but smoked it on the day with a pause. (1.5kg pr).

Bench she was able to get 78.5kg to match the current world record and chip the record (.5kg pr)

Deadlift she was able to break her own ipf world record! (1kg pr).

This gave her total 392kg that was also a world record in the 76kg m3 class. (3kg pr)

After regionals Chris Almond went on vacation came back 4 days out had a quick sbd session and hit the platform. 8/9 day and was able to pull 300kg for his 3rd attempt.

But off an offseason before nats then maybe a strongman debuts 🤷🏻‍♂️.

Thanks to Band of Barbells for running a great weekend and Twin Suns Media for the coverage.
