Strongman / Re: Time for something fun!
« Last post by tooth on Today at 10:29:44 AM »Kind of crazy, but I really want to do another one. It was much harder, but much more fun than a powerlifging meet. I'm signed up for Alex's RPS meet in October, so I need to get the strongman thing out of my head for a couple months. There's a competition the week before the pl meet, but I know that's not a great idea. But, none of my ideas are usually great ideas.
At a powerlifting meet the judges look like they would much rather be somewhere else, but at this strongman meet the judges where cheering and jumping up and down. The only things that where crappy was that warm ups where a real shit show. Everyone warms up at the same time, but there's not enough crap for everyone to use, and you have very little time to warm up. I'm not one to do much warm up at a meet, but you at least need to get your body primed for the weight. The other thing was that it smelled much worse than a powerlifting meet. Just way too many fat sweaty people in one place. Smelled like a bag of old sweaty onions.
