          Thanks ET! And a big thank you for helping me to get into All-round after having to retire from Strongman.

                1 x 50 was terrible, aint gonna lie.
                That’s a good idea about the heavy squats and pulls. I’m 40 now and I’m starting to see why advanced lifters say you shouldn’t DL every week.

                  These are the progressions I came up with to program my workouts.

                  The one on the left is 20 workouts to go from 5×10 reps to 1×50. If I couldn’t hit the desired reps in the set I just repeated it next workout.

                  The one on the right is for the carries, going from 5 sets of one minute to 1 set of 5 minutes.

                  Progression

                    oh that sounds miserable. Hope it doesn’t affect your training, no finger lifts for a while lol

                    I was very happy with the 230, 225 was my best before the comp and it sucked! I managed 275 on the middle finger training for the jan one but I think that took part of my soul. It hurt. A lot.

                      I had a great time Saturday! Great to lift with everyone again. I am always impressed with Bens grip strength. Scottish Johnny is such a nice and humble guy and is extremely strong!

                      Thanks Chad I appreciate that 🙂 always fun lifting with you! Wish I lived closer.

                        Congrats Chad! Impressive Ben!!

                        Thanks, John! It was nice to meet you and a pleasure to see you do some big lifting! I really wanted to channel some of my mojo on the middle fingers deadlift for the index fingers deadlift…didn’t turn out that way though.

                        Nice meeting you too! Impressive lifting. But you tore some skin did you? webbing? *shiver*
