Jim's Training to Become a Human Tank!

He nailed it. Once you get comfortable with the split, you can get very low under the implement. Now, if you're going to use the split jerk, OH walking lunges are an accessory for this lift. Once your elbows are locked, the hard part is going to be powering out of the hole once you get really low. OH lunges will help with that, and with finding your comfort zone in where the implement should be positioned in relation to your body when transitioning from the hole to a fully erect position.
I like watching your progress.

Yeah, I figured you were going to say that.... (OH Lunges)


That sounds like it sucks so bad....


Guess I'll find out Monday when I do lunges....

Lol, Bob's a cool guy. Extremely motivated, he comes in every day to get personal training from the gym owner.

Yeah buddy! It's amazing what a ton of meat and not running long distance can do! Plus, there is no denying the power of the beard.

It's going alright, my last competition was a disappointment, but now I'm just getting ready for TSM in April.
 
Core Work:


Palloff Press: Purple Band x 8 x 3

Ring Fallouts: BW x 8 x 3

DB Side Bends: 50 x 12 x 2

GHR Back Ext. : Black Band x 15 x 2
 
JM Intensification 10's Wave



CG BP: 110 x 5, 125 x 5, 135 x 10 x 2, 135 x 24


Dips: +25 x 3, +35 x 3, +45 x 3


a1. DB Bench (Pec Focus): 65 x 12 x 3
a2. High Lateral Raise: Red Bands x 20, RB x 25, RB x 30

Lying Band Curl: Black Band x 80


I'm uploading the HLR and LBC video so that you guys can see what those are, they're killers. Lots of volume and TUT for these two, the lateral raises will make your shoulders scream at you and the isolation/pump with the lying band curls are ridiculous.
 
You kids and your fancy words. I wish I was like Paul Black and knew wtf you were talking about..,
 
Thats what that exercise is? Been doing that for a couple years now along with a lateral movement I call a cable chop. Words are cool. Me want more Palloff

Max Distance Farmers Carries are the devil....

Agreed. I can't wait for the weather to change so I can get outside and do some.

People try to over complicate exercises. Sometimes all you need is some heavy weight in your hands and to walk until you think you're going to die, then a little farther.
 
Event Day :


Farmers Carries: 105 x 425', 155 x 425'

Had 1 drop with the last set at ~315'.


Load Race (keg/keg/sandbag/natural stone): 160/205/210 x 35', 160/205/210/215 x 35'


Terrible. With a real run the stone wouldn't have been loaded, it was sitting way too low. But, my sandbag pick up is way better than last time.

Just caught the video on my YouTube. Looks like some intense stuff there. Awesome work
 
Man, crazy performance with the events. I really ought to do stuff like you're doing from time to time (well, except logs and stones, for now).
 
Heezus Krist, I have to ask you, where do you and Sean get all those green bars that are by your names from?, Do youzez know the owners here??????
I mean I know you know your WSM stuff, but that Sean fellow, he must have paid someone, no!?!?

I'm pretty sure Sean trades BJs for reps.
 
JM Deadlift + Front Squat Realization 10's Wave



DL: 190 x 5, 225 x 3, 265 x 1, 285 x 15 (No belt, Hook Grip for all but last 3, Video is uploading)

Probably took ~10 minutes between the 265 and 285 sets, trying to find the motivation to do it. Was shooting for 20 (because that is the cap for what I count over 10 lol) but I'm happy with a beltless 15 at that weight.

Front Squat: 195 x 5, 225 x 3, 255 x 7 (No belt)

Wanted 6, got 7. Was hoping to get 10 (just because) but it didn't feel like that was gonna happen. Watched it on video and the last rep looked like a had a jetpack strapped to my back lol, maybe should have tried for more.

a1. OH Lunge (less of a lunge, more just going to the bottom of my split jerk position): Bar x 10, 95 x 10, 135 x 8
a2. GHR: BW x 10 x 3

Those "Jerk Recoveries" (as Marshall called them) are stupid hard lol. Very unstable and awkward, so yeah, f*** you Dave.....


:biglaugh:
 
Here is the final DL and FS set.

Also, hair and beard are gone. Got some job interviews tomorrow that I decided I should look professional for :sad:
 
Good bit of forward lean on the front squats.
 
Dude these high reps are insane....straight beast mode to get through some of that. :eek:
