    My reasons for incorporating sandbags into my training :
    I have a 9 month old son, I can't count on having 1-2 hours to work out all the time. Sometimes I have to do as much as I can in 30 minutes. I was running NH's beginner program and seeing good progress but I got a hernia because I had become unaccustomed to awkward lifts. After recovering from the hernia I wanted to try something new that would be challenging, fun and explosive that I could train as a skill or work into a circuit.
    We are going over seas for a month in which I won't have constant access to a gym so I want to build work capacity for calisthenics circuits and sprinting that I can do anywhere.
    My week is :
    Day 1. Hill Sprints in the am
    Heavy upper body in the pm
    Main lifts are OHP, Rows and dips
    Day 2. Sandbag floor to shoulder in the am
    Light lower body in the pm
    This is 1 leg rdl's, split squats, banded heels up squats and cossack squats.
    Day 3 rest, pump stuff.
    Day 4 Hill Sprints in am
    Upper body light/calisthenics
    Pull ups, ring push ups etc.
    Day 5 sandbag clean, sandbag carry in the am
    Heavy lower day, RDL's, reverse lunge.
    Every day has some ab work, kettlebell swings and hypertrophy work if time allows.

    If Alan is talking about competitive bodybuilding, he missed the biggest reason for doing strongman movements, which would be thickening of the waist and obliques, even if it’s muscle. Also, the overall body soreness can make it difficult to concentrate on the necessary bodybuilding isolation work. Toshiki mentioned this while in his current bodybuilding phase and regrets his weightlifting, despite being world class. A combo is great for overall strength, hypertrophy, health and fitness though.

    • @ExternusArmy
      @ExternusArmy Před 24 dny +6

      A natural lifter with aspirations of bodybuilding isnt going to end up with massive core because they started logging pressing. People have said this about deadlifting for decades but it’s also untrue there. Look at a guy like David Laid who is well into the 600s for deadlift and has a tiny waist. Hell, look at Alan. His waist is still small after a couple decades of high level strongman training. It comes down to genetics mostly and then also drug usage with drugs like HGH and insulin affecting the abdomen and viscera size.
      If anything, the focus on strongman will develop the yoke and hide a larger waist by expanding the traps and shoulders.

    I just started strongman this year and have 6 competitions. I've decided to against the conventional wisdom and focus a ton on event training, with the idea that since it is skill work I need to learn these movements very deeply. Then once I start hitting competitions where I've already done all the events in previous comps, relearning it will be like riding a bike as an adult. It's worked quite well so far as each competition I've placed higher than the last one.

    Combining strongman and bodybuilding makes more sense than combining strongman and powerlifting because you want to strengthen your whole body, not just with the three main lifts anyway (which is arbitrary/subjective as well).

    I don’t see why you can’t do strongman focused movements primarily, then do one or two accessories exercises (hamstring curls, rear delt flies/ W raises, arm curl or extensions) in the 15+ rep range, resulting in hyper trophy. There’s enough strongman events that take 1-2 minutes to complete so hypertrophy training can actually aid those events

    • @littleratblue
      @littleratblue Před 21 dnem

      You can do anything. You can train to be a chess playing, strongman, golfing, dart throwing novelist - only hitting the gym, going to the golf course, etc. a single time per year. And to do that training, you can spend most of your day sitting on the couch trying to think about the best way to train across all of those things. And even though that's ridiculous, you might succeed according to the criteria that you set for yourself in your own mind. Your goals are your goals.
      What you can do is a different question from what you want to accomplish. Likewise, what the most effective way to accomplish something is, is different from what you choose to do to accomplish that same goal.
      This is why a coach or personal trainer is generally going to ask your what your goal is, as the very first question they ask. If your goal is to become an IFBB pro then you're going to get a different set of recommendations than if you want to live a long and healthy life. Both will involve diet and fitness choices but the details will be different.
      You can do anything you want, up to the point where you actually need to do better at it than other people in some standardized setting. At that point, unless it's a very new sport, you're going to be competing against people that have focused narrowly on that one sport and the training that optimizes for success in that sport. If you choose not to specialize as well, your only chance for success are to be happy with PRs or hope that you're just so genetically gifted for that sport relative to everyone else that you'll win regardless.
