Yesterday I had my 3rd stongman competition, not really trained for this one, had a play with the yoke, farmers and viking before it and a few deadlifts, but not really trained for it.

Was a great day out, quite long, 4 events, finishing with car deadlifts. Things Im going to work on is yoke/farmers, trap/hex bar deadlifts using legs more, increase core/leg strength and some stones practice.

I was about 7/8th place going in to last event but 0 reps on car deadlift, as I pulled my back a bit, put me last out of 13 in that event, finishing 11th overall. so will come back stronger for the deadlift next time.

Big thanks to everyone there encouraging each other.

The core movements should make up 80% of our training if training for strength, conditioning, balance. They involve all the major muscle groups and help our posture, intramusculature, and have the biggest 'bang for the buck' for training exercises.

The other 20% can be curls, isolation exercises is needed, but arent really necessary to build a strong body, plus take more time so if you only have a couple of times to train a week, better off training the biggest compound exercises involving the legs, back, chest shoulders, they will hit more muscles, use more calories, and in the longer term provide great strength and minimise weakness/injury as we get older as we have learnt the correct movement patterns. These include bracing the abdominals when squatting or any lift, neutral spine, weight straight down our body, and proper breathing through the exercise.

The 80/20 rule is seen and can applied in many settings; 80% of our efforts should be concentrated in those 20% actions. There are many more exercises to choose from and activities, bosu balls, lots of things but 80% of those dont really work as well as the core exercises.

This rule is also applied to dieting or life; 80% of our food is good solid food, 20% can be chocolate, sugars, bit of a boost, so you get results but get some pleasures also. 80% of our effort should be concentrated on those 20% of people in our lives that matter, family, friends, work contacts clients, the other 80% is a waste of time and wont get the results you want.

When you start your day, do those 20% of tasks that will bring you 80% of your results.

Peace and Prosperity.

I am also interested in cooking so often I will make minced beef, sweet potato, rice, chicken meals, usually with peppers carrots onions and spices. This gives plenty of protein, good carbs, vitamins, and energy for training. And the cookies. They give energy too :p aslimg as around 80% of your diet is good and getting in protein to recover, energy carbs and some good fats the odd pizza and chocolate here and there is fine as that's what the training is for :p

I will post updates of food creations and training here

120kg x 3reps. Without drama, working on speed, bar path, stability before moving up. I often compare weightlifting (or anything really) to a computer. If you get strong or learn to deal with things that max out your computer (your cpu, brain, body) then safely pushing your limits ans backing off again will lead to a higher capacity. Then your everyday is running at 60% for example, imagine doing a set at 60/70% of your max, using 60/70% of your brain power MOST of the time, it's easy, so that when you want to run at 100%, you will be well rested and prepared for it. We shouldnt run at max too much, its important to rest, same as going to your max each week without periodization will kill your cns, no new stimulus, no capacity for brain development if the body/mind is fatigued constantly.
Little and often.

Peace x
