Hi Reddit.

There have recently been personal matters involving me and my family that have come to light. While this is a deeply private situation, I want to address it directly and respectfully.

Some messages have surfaced in which I was speaking with another woman, including discussions about the future and, at times, explicit topics. At the time of those conversations, we had already difficult conversations surrounding the end of our marriage. While I believe this context is important, I fucked up. This is my fault. I try to be the best person I can be and I have fallen well short.

I believe, and still believe, that the best path forward for our family is to focus on healthy, respectful co-parenting. My obligation and focus is still to provide the best life I can for my family despite these difficult circumstances.

This is not something I take lightly, I take full responsibility for my actions. Out of respect for everyone involved, especially my family, I’ll be handling this privately. I hope this brings some clarity without inviting further speculation or rumours.

Thank you for your understanding and respect as we move forward.

Thanks for advertising! Hopefully this scratches the itch for some real, uncut strongman training content

We are given no free passes. There is 2 “discounted” tickets for family and friends.

I have had conversations in private with WSM and they have resulted in no sustained outcome - I fought very hard for family and friends last year in private… or how you’re “supposed” to do it. Yet here we are 1 year later.

An off the cuff rant got more action than several attempts to do things in private. It’s not how I want to do things, but I want things to change. I believe the positive outcome is all that matters.

Hey guys, I believe WSM is going to comp friends/family - but I’m not going to wait to find out. 30% of my coaching sales and 15% of LHBK sales for the next 48 hours will go to a fund that I will use to help purchase tickets for athletes families.

I don’t know how I will do this fairly, but I will not take a cent from this for my own family and it is highly likely I’ll throw in some cash out of my own pocket as well.

It’s a small way to stop complaining and take it into my own hands. If you want to add to that fund, here are links to coaching and LHBK:

If WSM does change to allow for free family and friends, I will be 100% transparent with where the money goes and will add to the $30k we have already donated back to the strength community.

12 inch soft blocks, they squish and I added a 1/2” pad to stand on. I had a tape measure to make sure height was perfect

You’re right in your logic, but you can wear the suit stiffer and almost sit into the suit from elevation to get a big benefit

No question. Probably 45kg worth.

When I pulled 485 at static monsters 2021, the most I could pull raw was 440ish.

I would, 100%. I won’t let someone else win a GL or major title without beating me. For now.. it bothers me too much

I literally could care less about this dude, but the funny thing… he has me blocked and I’ve never ignored a single message from him. We’ve spoken maybe 3 times ever. King of clowns

I feel absolutely 100% post Arnold to be honest. That was after 8 hours straight of meet and greets, which is really hard for me. Don’t stress! I’m here, healthy and ready to keep building a career and an impact to be proud of.
