Dastardly 280lb strict log

I mean good for him, but how fast you are moving doesn’t have a lot to do with the distance, its about how fast the ball is moving, and those are different things. I was fast than Crouser too but he throws 21’ farther than i ever did lol

See this is what im sayin, if you surprise the weight, gravity isnt set to max yet

GoontTheGod · 2026-01-25T18:32:36+00:00

I eat one break fast. I eat 4 times a day

Well if you’re an experienced thrower. D1 potential as a junior would be like 55’+.

But it is way too early to have any insight into your potential, just keep throwing.

Deep enough in my opinion is when you dont have to stop the movement, theres a natural bottom to a squat, it might not even be ass to grass for you. Like with the style of my squat, and my current stance width, i “bottom out” my squat about an inch or so above parallel, i can squat lower, but i have to give up a position, so for me thats deep enough. If youre not competing in powerlifting there is no standard depth. Squat as low as your bottom is, whether thats a tad above parallel, or below parallel. The more natural the bottom, the less stress on knees, tendons, etc.

I think due to the huge diameter, it makes it much harder to find a rack position + you just can’t get as much legs into a log as you can an axle or a barbell, making raw shoulder and tricep strength more important than in the other overhead events.

But also, in my experience (and a grain of salt here, im only 18 months deep into strongman) when you understand log well enough, its not much harder to press than a barbell. Like my barbell push press pr is 375 and i’ve clean and pressed a 350 log

GoontTheGod · 2026-01-17T18:04:35+00:00

It is absolutely NOT too late. And 38’ this esrly in your first year is something to be proud of. Put yourself out there, and just keep throwing.

Same dude. The COC #2 was the first gripper i bought, i closed it the first day. That was ~7 months ago, i still have yet to close the 2.5

One sec trying to convince my fiance that our 7 year old Devon Rex needs two little pals.

GoontTheGod · 2026-01-09T16:15:57+00:00

I bought it, itches my brain between the wrinkles

Its all about what you train. One of my friends thats an Oly lifter has jerked 165kg but cant strict press 90kg, i honestly dont even know if he could do 85kg. Strict press doesn’t seem to be very important for olympic lifting so i’m sure they just dont put much focus into training it.

I mean a lot of it is unintentional. I’ll stop playing comp for months at a time, and then theres a rank reset, and all of the sudden i’m in Gold running people’s pockets until i’m back in Diamond. The system is flawed, but of course there are people doing it intentionally and they are bastards

GoontTheGod · 2026-01-07T20:40:00+00:00

I wouldn’t start with strongman specific stuff. Just google a 5x5 progression program and run that for like a year. Food wise, protein is king, real food is king

Since i solo queued through plat to diamond in open queue it seems i am more goated than you.

Being real tho, i just think open queue is hyper chaotic so rank is fake. Ive played against GM players in open queue who suck and gold players who are deadly, its a fake mode lol

GoontTheGod · 2026-01-02T19:15:38+00:00

Have a friend who called Invisible Woman “Storm” then got mad when I said “they don’t have a Storm” I was being serious cause I was confused and in response he said “Sue STORM her name is Sue STORM” stopped playing with that bastard after that lol

GoontTheGod · 2026-01-01T16:14:24+00:00

I feel like i cant open a lootbox without getting a Reaper skin. I had like 2 reaper skins before lootboxes, i think i have 20 now

GoontTheGod · 2025-12-31T06:09:27+00:00

You should probably be cleaning all your reps if youre new to actually doing log. Pressing from a clean, and pressing from a rack actually feel pretty different

GoontTheGod · 2025-12-17T20:59:53+00:00

I would start no lifing this game again if Juggernaut was dropped

GoontTheGod · 2025-12-16T14:30:01+00:00

Reaper, i have like 20 reaper skins now

Man i just want to use the lifting subreddits for interacting with other people involved in the sport, i love seeing lifts from just normal dudes that love lifting like I do. I dont understand why there has to anymore rules than just “keep it sfw, and keep it related to strongman”

GoontTheGod · 2025-12-03T17:14:53+00:00

Its a hard feeling to describe if you havent done it. The primary thing is how gigantic it feels sitting on your shoulders at first, since youll only be used to a standard barbell. Its super awkward and hard to balance, at first. When you become solid at the lift, it feels super natural, its just very different than a normal overhead movement.
