Coach Training Thursday

Ok,

Lets do a power circuit-

Prowler Push sleds-  Push down and back 30 yards. I started at 180 lbs plus the sled and worked up to 280 lbs.

Vertical Leg Press- 6x10 worked up to 525 lbs.

Power Lift Good Mornings- These are done in a power rack. The pins are set so that your shoulders are at the same height as when you deadlift.  Start from your normal squat stance and slightly bend your knees and then push your butt back as far as possible until you touch the pins and then lift the weight back up with just your back. Don't use your legs.  6x5  I finished with 405.

Banded Leg Curls- Grey bands- 3x25

Abs- Bent Knee Sit ups- 30, Toe Touches- 30, Denise Austin's- 30

Gary Taylor 1993 World's Strongest Man

My strongman training is based off of Gary's 1994 training. Gary is a bad ass. He is one of only a few men to ever beat Magnus Ver Magnusson who won 4 WSM titles. Gary did a record 462 lbs Push Press in the 1995 WSM contest. He also won a silver medal in the Snatch at the 1984 Olympic's.

Here is a video of Gary's WSM win in 1993: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qI_U_AIULH0
