Great video Loz... I had my first competition in January this year (started strongman training Sep 2018) and to my amazement I came 3rd out of 11 competitors.... I totally agree with you regarding how you feel on comp day.... In the gym I could only do 5 log press reps in 1 min... On comp day I managed 9!...I was Extatic, Ive trained recently with Lisa Corallini and worked out with Andrea Thompson as well... Both are fantastic and I'm learning alot from them, as well as from your video's 💪 I love training and have already booked into 2 more Novice comps this year...keep up the great vids👍

My second comp. I was hoping for 10 reps on Dead’s. I can not count when in the zone. I just did it until time was up. Time was up and I was told I did 16. At home my record was 9 reps. I placed last in the comp but first in being the strongest me at the time. It was amazing.

Great video! I have my first one coming up in exactly a week. Usually when I worked out in the past I had music and could use that to get myself in my peak mental state to lift the heaviest. But when I work out with the boys and when I compete what is the best way to get yourself/myself ready to rock and roll and be ready mentally for a lift and a competition?

Just watched my first show held at my Gym 2 days ago and seriously considering signing up for the next one. I will come dead last, but I just want to experience the sport I love watching from the I side at least once. That is definitely worth the price of competing 😁

@hulkslayer626 3 жыл бұрын

...and I'm not saying I'll come last because I am not confident... I'll come last because I'm 6'2" 350lbs and my 1RM's are 200lb on bench, maybe 350lbs on squat and 435lbs on Deadlift. My best Log is 170lbs and barely got it up. I'm not strong for my size. But I will enjoy every second I'm there 👍

I only weigh 155 lbs. I've never competed in strongman, but I'd love to. Should I do novice division for my first competition or the lightest weight open? Not sure if I want to compete against people 80 lb heavier than me in novice but I'm not sure. Ideally, whichever one has easier events.

@zutarafan4ever 3 жыл бұрын

How do you know when you’re ready for comps? Is it different between men and women? Do women in strongman train differently than men? Are strongman comps coed or are they gender specific? I’m rather new to the sport and I would eventually like to do comps for fun.

@bammatthews9092 3 жыл бұрын

The competitions I have done. Were coed. Our training is the same a both gyms I train at. Only the weights are different.
