Depending on funds, an old tire with a u-bolt driven through it works great as a sled. Bigger tires = more fun

REALLY hard (read: impossible) to push though

Good work on the PR's.

i wonder if pops has any old tires in his garage....hmmm.

man, if you can't find an old tire (I personally think semi tires would be awesome, but you probably couldn't plate load them without buiding some platform or whatever) you are doing something wrong.

I've got a 205lb tire sitting in my garage that I'm still trying to figure out what to do with it. Too light to flip it... save it for my boy when he is old enough to start? Drive a big mother f-ing bolt through it and turn it into the world's heaviest and most troublesome sled? Trying to drag it would probably be equal to a hummer pull... maybe worse because there is no way to build momentum. I've thought it might be a good way to train for pul events that require a harness and a rope to pull.

Anyway, getting your hands on a used tire should be far easier than getting a fat girl to eat cake

DE Squat day

Started with box squats, parallell box, and speed was good, I think I'm getting the hang of sitting waaay back on the box better now.I can def feel it hitting the PC more sitting back so far.I do need to stay a bit tighter tho.Moved to Deadlifts next, was going to pull for speed but things felt good and I'm a bit egotistical so I worked up.I hit a friggin sweet looking 150kg and thought fuck it I'm gonna go for a PR, moved up to 165kg on the bar and got it.It doenst count tho in my book cos it was tooo Ugly!! I was pissed I lost form and my back rounded out a bit and it looked like shit.I think I need to work my low back and abs even harder.Weak Core being the culprit.Finished with extensions and abs.
