Welcome to CAP's SHS Strongman Training

If you want to come down and flip tires with the "old man"... do so at your own risk, I am not your mommies (even if I am prettier than some of them). If I tell you to scram--do so. We all help each other and WE ALL CLEAN UP. Bring water and an indomitable will. Check the blog 1 hour before you come down if there is foul weather or just in case--stuff happens. Subscribe by email or blog-reader to get updates (so I don't get 50 texts everyday). And, P.S. Meditate...It is the true Strongman Training.

Fabian put on Wrestling Clinic

Fabian put on a Wrestling / BJJ clinic this Thursday at Strongman. Talk about a workout! And all my bruises make me look cool. My mommy tells me so, so it's true! Was so fun to scrap a bit again. Vlad, Deema, Jordan (NEWB) and 2 new SHS girls came down. Not a Boy's club anymore.

Best of luck to Chris (FINISH!) Robinson today on his Surgery. We're prayin for a swift recovery...so you can get hurt again with a 8000 pound truck pull! Yeah!

Bushido


Bushido

Rectitude, Courage, Benevolence, Respect, Martial Prowess,  Honesty, Honor, Loyalty unto death.
Sometimes, making a hard choice requires a great deal of courage. Situations which require us to make these choices don't necessarily come when we are called upon to save someone's life or commit a heroic act of such degree that will gain us any kind of recognition or notoriety. Most of the time, it is the simplest of situations which force us to make a choice between taking a chance to do the right thing or remain in the shadows of our own pride, embarrassment or fear and merely observe with regret. Bushido dictates that we must act to support goodness and right action regardless of our level of comfort with the intervention. Sometimes, the lives or well-being of others will depend on our ability to rise with courage at any given moment, usually when we least expect it.

The Essence of Zen

"When I'm walking, I'm walking; when I'm eating, I'm eating; when I'm flipping tires, I'm flipping tires."

(And being awesome!)

Back from Abu Dhabi...time for Strongman!

 Back from the other side of the world. Abu Dhabi was...HOT. Also it was beautiful, the desert anyway. Dune Bashing in an SUV was like a ride in an F-22. The hotels were opulent to say the least and made me feel much guilt for staying in them as I drank Lebanese beers at pool bars and roof top pools and pools in 7 star hotels Susanne and I crashed:) The Grand Mosque, a treasure. Boating around the islands, great. The water was so salty you could almost walk on it. Kayaking in the Mangroves was awesome. My new niece is beautiful. SO good to see my Brother-in-law Mark and his Mrs.: Steph (heh, I wrote that cause Steph will hate it:). They always know how to plan the best adventures. Susanne took me to London. Only city I have ever wanted to move to. The art in the churches and monuments and parks...beyond belief. Ale's were warm and heavy and wonderful. Sadly my "Special Forces Training" consisted of too much sitting in the AC, hotel gyms, sitting in 12 hour flights, petting a camel, a city walk of London and some dune walks...my body is a mess... so BACK TO STRONGMAN!
