"When all is said and done, there’s alot more said than done."
Overview (A Little About Me)
Tall , skinny lad from Cornwall, UK! Moved over here in 1998- as a nurse – started training weights with a mate from work , Big Phil.
Didn’t find traditional high rep work helped me so started dinosaur style training (Brooks Kubik) lots of sandbag work, thick bars, deadlifts and rack work- really made a difference. I slowly found myself training in strongman style till I met Warrick Brant who was looking for strongman equipment – a match made in heaven. He trains me and I had a lot of kit ( including atlas stones and then a log). Since 2007 have trained with warrick and he’s really pushed me and helped me. Visited Scotland during my honeymoon and my lovely wife , Kate allowed me time out to lift some manhood stones “ Clach Cuid Fir.” I lifted the Inver stone (265lbs granite stone) , the Dalwhinney stone , the Menzies castle stone ( a very smooth 250lbs stone) and the famous Dinnie stones – 2 stones lifted together, no wraps or straps 333kgs total weight.
I entered my first comp in April 2008 at Lismore – came 9th , then moved into the newly founded Ozstrongman federation , run by Chris Andrews. I am now training hard for the 2009 Ozstrongman season and using ASN supplements to help get me there.
