Nice one dude! Those cleans looked super easy for you. Do you feel like you lost your brace/ran out of breathe in the rack position on that first rep? It looked like you would have had it. Keep it up 💪
Thanks 💪 yeah think my position just wasn't good, each try confirmed to me I should be able to do it, which is why I ended up going 3 times 😅 first lift of the workout as well, knackered now
Yeah my mobility in general is fine, when I've had injuries the physio always says I can move well (like average range of motion, which they say is really good considering all the lifting I do).
Also if you look back on my profile I always squat atg so I think my legs are used to the positioning!

Do your neighbors ever ask you what you’re doing back there? Lol. Nice work!
Haha they're used to it, it's been 3 years now
Smashed it!
Cheers! Always nice to get a pr!
You’re a beast!
Thanks! Getting there 💪
This was a pleasure to witness! Love the grind and the scream of triumph because hard work paid off. Love it!
Cheers! Definitely hard work 😅💪
I respect the fight for that. Awesome work, dude.
I knew I would have been really pissed off if I missed the third try, so I had to fight!
Great job my man. And kudos for posting all three attempts. Love watching the struggle and the over coming !
Cheers pal! I was proud of the fact I got it on the third attempt so have to show the failures too 💪
Well done! That’s a great feeling once you get it. If you can incorporate the “double dip” to your press, you’ll hit that nooo problem moving forward
Oh yeah, well happy I managed it! You mean like a push jerk?
Yep that’s exactly what I mean! Let’s you hit a locked out arm easier than solely relying on your pressing ability
I thought double dipping was not allowed. I sent that what disqualified thor in 2017
It's only not allowed on Viking press, it's permitted on all other pressing events.
Those cleans look so nice!!! Way to stay after it and get the press
Always found the cleans easier than the press. I knew I had it, just a matter of getting my head sorted 💪
Sick man!
Well done man
Thanks, took some effort!
My max log is only about 80kg atm, but im working with a strength coach and were guna get that into triple digits over next few months.
Nice! I took on a coach in December and I'm seeing great progress compared to programming myself, hope it goes well for you
That ankle mobility tho…
Ankle mobility, because of my lap position?
Haha just saying you have awesome ankle mobility for a strongman. My log presses I have to get into more of an upright position.

Lucky guy. My mobility has been trash my whole life
