Just found your log, @oldguy .

Zercher squats and fat bar presses, that's unusual. I've done some Zercher squats, they sure do kill my upper back.

[oldguy]

Thanks for commenting slowmition. Yes - prepping for strongman - trying to get strength for keg loads.

I just saw this! 40 minutes! 43 reps! I guess you survived. Where did he throw down this challenge?

actually I am such a shitty typist - that was a 30 minute challenge - so max reps 315 in 30 minutes is the challenge - aiming for 60 ( 2 a minute). My coach/trainer got 52.

I saw it somewhere on the internet - lots of people pooh pooh these challenges ( like high rep squats, etc.) but I think they help with mental toughness and/or are just fun.

I see that we were discussing this in Egypt back in 2015.

He says that you can do it with the trap bar if you'd like.

Now, do I want to be able to stand up tomorrow? . . . .

This random guy got 60 in under 10 min! He deadlifts too close to his dog though.
