events training

[lockout]

i was wonder if you just trained events all the time and have one day of gym work would it help to getting stronger to too compete or would it be too taxing on your body to train events alot?

and was wondering would it be it work to do one event for the end of each gym workout like if you trained legs and do yoke after or do an overhead work and train log etc.. but still have an event day one day a week?

on heavy muscle radio derek poundstone discusses how he trains and basically he trains various body parts throughout the week with no event training on the weekday workouts. he does an event day on the weekend. the interview is contained in the 3/8/10 show: http://www.rxmuscle.com/hmr-radio-show.html

you will get used to those implements, but will you have great overall strength in all areas, maybe, maybe not.

thats how must do it, Ive done workouts that I have capped off with strongman stuff, but unless you got some type of restrictions set up, you start to over work yourself.

I would recommend, working more on your weaknesses. That way you can make your weaknesses your strong events, then just keep your strong events strong.
