Events training at the gym. Place was busy so all I really got in was some work on the kegs. Warmed up by lifting them over a 48" high bar. Then progressed to running (kind of) 40 feet with them and dropping them over. Have bruises on both knees and biceps.
That looks like it would kill me. Nice work!
good stuff! that reminds me a lot of the things i'd see fellas do at the highland games i used to go to many moons ago

Squats: 287x1x3
Chins: 10, 10, 10. All done with medium grip and using new Fat Gripz.
Hex Bar Deadlifts: 345x3x5. All five sets done with two minutes rest between sets.
Tri set:
DB Curls: 20x12x3 w/Fat Gripz
Tricep Extension: 20x12x3 w/Fat Gripz
Grip Machine: 55x10x2
all three exercises performed one after another, with two minutes rest.
are the hex deads easier? that's hella volume on so little rest
They ARE easier, specially since I am using the higher handles. However, in this case they serve as a dynamic assistance exercise for squats and deadlifts. Does it work? who knows, but am looking for a way to get more of a deadlift like volume without killing recovery. So far squats and deadlifts are going up.
The worse thing is being a reader/thinker. Read this article and decided maybe try to incorporate it for a couple cycles to see what happens.
