🔥 Stronger Together 🔥
.
Time to officially announce @coachhowson joining the coaching team.
.
From a long standing athlete and client, to an even better friend, Josh brings his own experience working with the industry's top coaches, learning from everyone around him and competing at the National Level.
.
Some pretty crazy feats of strength to his name - 1000lb beltless yoke is a pretty good start.
.
Anyone wanting to join the team - drop us a DM to get started.
💥 200kg Stone PB 💥
.
That. That felt very good.
.
And very easy.
.
For those who know me, this is by far my most meaningful lift. Nothing comes close. Years I've said I wanted this.
.
Something I've known I was capable of, but let fear, self doubt, and any manner of mental roadblocks get in the way. Not anymore.
.
Stronger you become, the stronger you become.
.
.
Just a little hobbit tryna send it 🙋♂️

🔥 350KG RAW DEADLIFT PB 🔥
.
Another 10kg PB, weighing a crisp 102kg.
.
I've said it from day one, the stronger you get, the stronger you get. Stacking evidence against your own self doubt makes you realise what you're capable of.
.
Less impressed, more involved, and I'm no where near done.
.
.
Can't thank the @halifaxstrengthunit crew enough. The support from the lads made this my greatest lift to date.

🔥 160kg + 100kg Lumberjack Carry 🔥
.
No matter what happens in life, training is always a constant.
.
Often something we all take for granted, until its needed.
.
Training is the one place you can be present. A reminder that taking time for yourself is not only healthy, but should be a priority.
.
Then take all that, and add in the calibre of people you meet along the way.
.
Its pretty wild that a lot of us find meaning in literally yeeting circles, sand and stones.
.
.
.
Big thank you to @valentin_strongman for being top dog and training partner 👉👈
.
And @hannahwaddup x @lsf_performance for making me eat my veggies and feel strong again.

INSPIRED
.
When I was at Worlds Strongest Man, surrounded by the strongest men on the planet, I had a weird epiphany - I wasn't inspired as I thought I would be.
.
Make no mistake, their feats are unquestionably elite, but I wasn't inspired by @paddy_strongman because he was an athlete, but instead I got to watch one of my closest friends, put his body on the line.
.
And it made me wonder about the people I have been fortunate to meet in this weird fucked up sport.
.
Those that I'm lucky enough to be around. And the fact that I draw more motivation from the people in my circle, than anywhere else in life.
.
For the first time in a long long time, I feel like I have a drive bigger than just myself. To give back to everyone I've been blessed with.
.
.
Bit deep that innit.

WSM.
.
It's been a hell of a week. Not the result we wanted, but that's just the way it lands sometimes.
It's easy to get caught up in the moment, and forget a pretty important thing.
.
Less than 3 years ago, WSM was a pipe dream.
.
Now, Giants, this past few days - it's almost been second nature, so much so we've not stopped to take it in.
.
Sometimes the hardest thing is positive reflection, and taking pride in the process.
.
And this is a message to everyone, its a practice we should all be focused on. To commit yourself to a goal, but also be able to laugh and embrace all the rosy shit life has to offer.
.
Just take a step back and look around, because when things don't feel like they've gone to plan, you see all the stuff that you've built with it.
.
I've known @paddy_strongman for 5 years now, and had the honour to not only coach and watch him progress as an athlete, but grow just as much as a man.
.
Now enough of the deep shit, it's time to literally grow 🥩 📈
.
Big love to and from the team 💜

🔥 150kg Split Jerk PB
160kg One Motion Sandbag
270kg x3 Beltless Stiff Bar
220kg Zercher
.
All sitting at sub 100kg for the first time in years 🫡
.
Had months of low energy, fatigue, not being able to get fired up for anything.
.
Been a while since I've felt this freaky.
Feels good to be back.
.
👇 They know a thing or two about turning people into savages.

MEDLEY.
.
120kg Yoke
2x60kg Dumbbells (PB)
90kg Stone
120kg Barbell
120kg Axle x3
.
All kitless.
.
Absolute favourite way to press.
The subtle differences between each implement and yet all training a similar pattern - makes pressing really really fun.
.
Pressing is feeling the best it has in years. Little longer to build before seeing what we can yeet overhead.
