climber511 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Anyone besides me having a hard time coming up with goals for the new year? I usually have this big list but nothing is really calling to me right now. Is anyone even working on them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 (edited) Yessir. But for this year, instead of just naming a bunch of miscellaneous feats that I probably won't even train for, I made a list of things that I really plan on accomplishing. 230lb 2hp Inch #4 MM3 MM4 MM5 600lb deadlift 365lb bench I'll take everything else as it comes. I'd really like to lift the fatman clone, but I'm not really sure how attainable that is for this year. It's ridiculous.

MalachiMcMullen Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 In order of probability and intended focus. Deadlift 500+ Pinch 100kg Squat 400+ Bench 300 DO Axle 300+ MM2 #3.5 Nothing on there is too far from where I am now, aside from the grippers. I should be able to reach them sometime in 2010.

What about The Planche!? I continue to strive for what seems like a futile endeavor. I have done a straddle planche for a second or two, can do a good tuck planche for 3-5 seconds and the rest is slow coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbe705 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 pinch 2x45. I should have done this a while ago. 2hp 230. I think the sub goal here is to get my head straight with this lift. close a #4 at gripmas next year. I think this is a gimme. get my mm0 done. 300 on the 2" v-bar in a comp. get 4 plates on an axle dead. keep improving my conditioning and flexibility/mobility. compete in at least 1 highlander game, at least 5 highland games, 2-3 AW tourneys, 1 strongman comp, and 5 grip comps. lever a 20# hammer out of the rice cage. get together with people to train more often. this was probably the thing I did that was the best this last year. brent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djukac Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Good luck on your goals everyone!!! I just want to add as much as I can to all of my exercises, I don't have defined goals, but I want to do 3 sets of 5 reps with 90kg on the strict standing press cause it's my favourite exercise at this time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big waistline really boosts overhead strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoC#3 Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Agreed - i've always found people with smaller waistlines tend to crumble with awkward objects like axles and logs overhead. I'll keep my gut and shoot for that 400lb overhead LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
