2 weeks out from the GPC World cup, The focus here was to hit up my last warm up before my opener. Worked up to 280kg and it moved as it should for the warm up room. Will open up with something with a 3 on it and go have some fun. It's took me ages to get the hang of squatting again. I still did it when I was focused on strongman training, but it was more for assistance, had to work really hard to get my old line back.

No 14 on my list of proudest moments is the Ardblair Stones. My videos have amounted to over 150 million views on various different social media platforms! And I am very very proud have helped bring stonelifting to the masses. Lifting them again yesterday means I have lifted them more than anyone else and I am the oldest person to have achieved full run lol.

Back to my list of the things I am proud of, I took a break as my stone to shoulder video hit 3m views and it was a bit too much lol.
Anyway the year is 2009 I was on a merry adventure with my two training partners Ken and Stainless. We lifted the dinnie stones prior to this, and they both lifted them much easier than me!! So the journey to the inver stone I was teased the whole time.... and rightly so.
I could not wait to press the stone with the anger I was feeling haha. Only 3 men had ever pressed it over head. All 3 legends of strength sports, and I wanted to join that elite club.
This is maybe the coolest thing I have ever done in the lifting game and I made the front cover of iornmind magazine for it!
If you notice no belt, no elbows, no wraps or sleaves....totally raw
When we showed this video footage (on a camcorder lol) to sir David Webster he asked was the video speeded up...and that might have been the biggest compliment I have ever received.

Apart from running federations, coaching, mcing and promoting comps, I still enjoy being a competitor.....and I am being as competitive as I can lol
Big love from the original outcast
Can't stop won't stop

No 12 in my most proudest moments series
1000kg had fallen at the WPF World's 3 years earlier....but could I do it again a whole weight division lighter with no squat suit?
GPC British championships and the thing I am most proud of was I coached about 15 people that weekend, I set up a clothing stand after driving 8 hours to get there and did a horrible water cut to make weight....these all gad a massive impact on my own personal lifting but we still got the prize
#powerlifting #strongman #bodybuilding #highlandgames #stonelifting
N°11 of the things I am most proud of.
Winning UK's Strongest Master.
Made my strongman comeback with a weeks notice at Scotland's strongest master. I had more time to train for UKs, was going great till I injured my shoulder week before comp! I new the chances of me winning when missing an event (ironically my favourite event Viking press) was impossible, but we gave it everything we had
I won 3 and 2 seconds in the other 5 events and I somehow fought back from 16pts behind!
This would be the biggest title I have won!

No 10 of my proudest moments
The Dritvik Stones aka the Fisherman Stones that reside on Djúpalónssandur beach in Iceland. When the fishermen came off the boats their share of the catch was determined by the stone they could lift
Stone 1 Weakling
Stone 2 Half carrier
Stone 3 Half man
Stone 4 Full strength
This was one of the most beautiful moments in my life, we had just ticked my wifes bucketlist seeing killer whales in the wild! Then I became the first non Scandinavian to achieve fullsterkur in beautiful sunshine. We travelled to Thors gym after this to be welcomed to the club by all the top strongmen in Iceland and Thor signed his WSM t shirt for me.
Blessed to have lived this day
