Training with Terry Hollands (WSM)

That is me, training with Terry Hollands! Yes, I really did that! It was awesome! It was an absolute spur of the moment decision, he advertised 4 days of PT slots so I emailed and got the first one I chose! I didn’t give it much more thought than that, and a small part of… Read More Training with Terry Hollands (WSM)

Annoying but not unexpected…

The UK is rushing headlong into a second lockdown, it starts (officially) on Thursday 5th November (yay happy bonfire night) and lasts for 1 month. That is at least 1 month, there is no guarantee that it will actually end after a month, but a month is the paln, for now. So that being taken… Read More Annoying but not unexpected…

I pulled a truck!

It was a practice truck, but it was still a 7.5 tonne truck! It was this truck in fact: Yes I was attempting to look strong in the face of a giant truck, I may or may not have succeeded, there is a possibility that at that point I just look small! Well small compared… Read More I pulled a truck!

One month to go!

Aaaaarrrrgh!! In one month (exactly… it is on the 22nd November) I have my very first strongwoman competition. It would be fair to say that I am suddenly exceedingly anxious about the whole thing! Ok, actually that would be something of an understatement. When I actually think too hard about competing in this competition (and… Read More One month to go!

100kg for reps…

Do you remember the time I knew a girl from mars? I don’t know if you knew that… No hang on not that, that’s just my brain filling in the start of a sentence with song lyrics. It does that, I can’t stop it. Do you remember the times I got a 100kg deadlift PB,… Read More 100kg for reps…

Squatober…

So, I have just discovered that Squatober is a thing. It is as simple as it sounds, it is squatting, every day in October…or possibly every day in October apart from the Sundays. Whichever it is it is a lot of squats on nearly every day in October. It is a properly programmed thing, with… Read More Squatober…

My new strongperson toy is no yoke!

Actually that may be one of the most inaccurate titles ever because my new strong person toy is actually definitely a yoke! But who can resist that sort of pun 😀 Ok it was a terrible pun, I apologise…I am not changing it though 😀 Anyway, back to this yoke. For those of you not… Read More My new strongperson toy is no yoke!

What is the plural of Stoltman?

Stoltmen? Stoltpeople? Stoltmans… I think it is probably Stoltmans, but that just sounds wrong. I might just cut my losses and refer to them as Tom and Luke Stoltman, just to be on the safe side… You may be wondering why this blog post seems somewhat more rambling than normal. Well, it is just one… Read More What is the plural of Stoltman?

Back to the grindstone…

Ok, I don’t really think my training is a grindstone. I nearly always enjoy it, otherwise why do it!! But my point is, now I am back from holiday, I am back to the training full steam ahead. I have 2 competitions at the end of November after all O_O the wisdom of this remains… Read More Back to the grindstone…

The battle of the viking press, and other non scale victories

Just before lockdown I started to win the battle of the viking press… It was an epic battle started many moons ago when I first started training with Matt. My first encounter with this infernal contraption made me realise I was extremely uneven when it came to strength and that I had *really* been neglecting… Read More The battle of the viking press, and other non scale victories
