Event days depend on the competition if you have access to stones, truck pull, a harness etc. use that.

Event days are full out when doing them but lots of time off in between. Strongman is not CrossFit recovery between events is important.

Medley – Sandbag heavy (or some sort of weird rock, human or thing.) 50 feet as fast as possible. Put it over the yoke then run the yoke back 50 feet as fast as possible. Time each run do 3-4. Focus on the starts and the execution, events are won and lost in milli seconds.

Sandbag picks – pick up the sandbag, medicine ball, rock, thing and shoulder it. Do 3 sets of 5. if it is a hard object or a human just pick it and triple extend with it don’t drop it, or do depends on how good of friends you are lol.

Farmers Set 1 – 50 Feet with heavy weight no drops with a turn and back 50 feet. Focus on footwork, speed and the turn. Time your runs. Improve every time.

Farmers Set 2 – Make them significantly heavier. Pick them and go as long as possible. Focus on grip work. If you get to the end of the turf do 5 deadlifts with them if your grip will allow. If your grip will not allow strap up and take them to the end. Do 3 runs like this. Last run (number 4) you should have to use straps your grip should be shot.

Grip work – Plate pick ups and holds. Use both hands or one to pick up a plate 5 times holding at the top for 5 seconds do 4-5 of those. Use a hex dumbbell and pick it up end on. Calk will be your friend. Remember to clean up after yourself. (these should be to failure)
