YEAH! I won the title “Oregon’s Strongest Man”. My humility prevents me from being too proud – there were a whole bunch of Canadians who decided not to show and I know that Sam Pektol (of Pektol’s Strength Systems, serious) lives in Oregon. But it was a great day for me. I got PR’s on all the highland games events: Braemar Stone, Heavyweight over bar, light hammer throw and light weight for distance. Admittedly the lack of a trig box helped a lot for LWD 🙂
Oregon StrongmanI’m officially the sorest I’ve ever been… It’s rhabdo bad, seriously. 1/2 Hour full body in 60deg water I still felt hot when I got out 4.5 hours after the meet. Here’s day two and I couldn’t sit up in bed, I had to literally roll off. Hysterical!
Congrats Big Jesse…………you da man!!!!
Good lord man that video rocks. Outrageous where they keep putting plates on the shoulder walk bar thinger? EEESH. Love seeing you throw up the log overhead. Thats “big man elegance” with the twirly hammer throw man! How much # is the one arm dumbbell press there? yikes.
Amazing show!
Thanks Bro 🙂 The DB is a 2″ grip 140lbs – I suck, I coulda got that if I’da practiced for like 2 seconds on something similar before the meet – but I didn’t really know that there were no rules on pressing whatsoever – so I didn’t practice that dip enough times… Grr. It’s all good though!
