Eric Cressy and Mike Robertson have put together a couple of articles on how to over comes those issues you may have on the big three lifts.

Another challenge by Brent Mikesell

Monday, August 29th, 2005

Brent Mikesell has another challenge for those of you that are a lot stronger than I am. Rather than the deadlift challenge where you had to do 405lbs. 20 times he has the bench press challenge where you do as much as you can with 315 and the top 10 will get a shirt […]

Extreme Bodyweight Training

Sunday, August 28th, 2005

Brad Johnson has an interesting article posted up on IronMind.com about bodyweight training with none other than sledgehammers. When I first say that I thought he was probably going raises or something with them. That is not the case however. He is doing pull-ups and grip training with a sledgehammer. Confused? […]

Will the real John Davies please stand up?

Strongman in NFL football training

Wednesday, August 24th, 2005

I found this link over on Jesse Marunde’s forum awhile back but just now find the time to look at it. It’s a very interesting video to watch. It goes into the training of Tiki Barber, running back for the New York Giants, and what his workouts entail. Although I’m sure we […]

Pudz overhead pressing 405lbs !

Monday, August 22nd, 2005

While taking a gander at powerliftingvideo.com I ran across this video of Pudz (seems to be the guy everyone is chasing in Strongman) overhead pressing 405lbs like it was no one’s business. WOW. I can’t even begin to imagine doing 405 overhead much less squatting that amount of weight.
If you see any […]
