B2R Try Out Strongman!

With the pandemic bringing a complete halt to almost all sport and events this year, we were thrilled we managed to commit to something this year and carry it through. Saturday 17th July, Luke and Steve competed in their debut Strongman event in Scunthorpe, North England, alongside a strong support of friends and family!

After 15 weeks of training following Barbell Medicine Programming, everyone who competed, most importantly thoroughly enjoyed themselves, and secondly overachieved. Some, including Luke were invited back for Finals in October (3rd of 17 in Class).

Callie Hammond and George Williams captured the day, as shown below, as well as the events.

Event 1:

13kg Hammer Hold Max Time

Event 2:

160kg Deadlift 60s Max Reps

Event 3:

Overhead Medley (Axle bar 70kg, Log Press 70kg Circus Dumbell 35kg)

Event 4:

Loaded Carry (15m 180kg Yoke into 15m 150kg Frame)

Event 5:

Atlas Stone Run (60,70,80,90,100kg)

Keep exploring the exercises and movements out there, you will find something that lights you up.

Move, and move on.

Luke & the B2R Team :)
