The Highland Thor

All in for the entertainment, despite competing in the highland games I took up some Strongman events in addition to the highland games events last Saturday . Anything lifting or throwing I love to do it. No this does not mean I want to help you move a couch or a dresser out. I like lifts that are more glorious feats of strength than that 😂

Great time competing at the Radford University Scottish Highland Games last Saturday. Placed 4th overall going up against some of the best amateur throwers in the league. Very happy with how I performed in many of the events but it's still very clear I have much to improve on for weights for distances if I want to get to the top. Much to improve on but man did I have a great time. Thank you for having us. And a big thank you to all of the athletes and coordinators who make these festivals possible. So grateful to be around such an amazing group of people. Next up is Lloyd farm highland games this Saturday Oct 21st. All are welcome to come out and have some fun. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The Thomas Inch Dumbbell. Known as the unliftable dumbbell, this dumbbell weighs 176lbs and has a 2.5inch handle (roughly as thick as a can of coke). It was invented by Thomas Inch and was used as a circus attraction where for a small price you could attempt to lift the dumbbell using only one hand. If you could lift the dumbbell you'd win $1000 which at the time was a lot of money. Even getting the dumbbell to leave the ground is considered extremely impressive because a very small margin of people have even been able to pick it up off of the ground. A big thanks to owner of .barn.gym.va for letting me come out to try it. There is only one manufacturer that even makes this dumbbell and it's overseas so the chances of even coming across this iconic dumbbell is extremely rare.
