HOW TO LOG LIFT | Adam Bishop's Guide To Strongman 

Any chance of a log lift programme? There's loads out there for deadlifts squats ect but no one's done a decent log programme? Also best of luck at Brits. 💪

Great video. Loving the channel. Would love one on the yoke and kettle bell over the bar throwing. 💪

Cheers from Texas Adam. This is a great video, thanks for posting! Looking forward to seeing you compete again, hope the recovery is going well.

Brilliant video!! Really helpful. Could you do a video of best warm ups and stretching tips for shoulders and legs.

Your deadlift technique is the best I have seen. It’s so fluid and efficient... would be good to see a similar breakdown and in particular the rationale for your pronounced narrow stance

Brilliant video, cheers for the coaching tips. Looking forward to building my PR’s

Yeah, I made myself a log, from a log, but the log is almost two feet in diameter instead of what seems to be the standard 12', and it makes resting it onto shoulders and chest almost impossible.

This is my new favorite log lift tutorial. Thank you! Woo!

Nice video man. With my currently injured right arm the only log work I'm doing is dumping them in the toilet.

really loving the videos!

This is great!! Thx for sharing this kinda content and teaching the world something educational, fun and extremely beneficial💪👊

Excellent vid, I will be using those techniques in my log pressing.

Great informative video! I’d like to see one for the stones and also a food diary the day before and the day of a comp 💪🏼👍🏼

Amazing video 💪🏻 going to try log press first time today with help of this video. Thanks!

Awsome, really helpful tips trying these tomorrow.

Excellent video! Lots of info! Good luck for the Britains Strongest!!

Thanks Adam, watching this 2 years later and its great. Really helpful. After your recent vid on standard straps as well. Brill!

Great video. Straight to the point perfect 👌

Awesome video mate thank you, helped me loads

Just watched this video for the second time, along with your deadlift and squat vids to help make sure I’m applying the correct techniques as a novice lifter - they’re so well explained, with really useful tips 👍🏻 Any chance of an overhead press tutorial on a standard barbell, please? 🙂👍🏻💪🏻

Great video helped me out loads

Excellent thanks Adam. 👍

My new favourite channel. Awesome content. Favourite Strongman with links to 2 of the best sports.

Great guide hope to learn a lot from uou Bish

Looking big, Bish!

mind and body in tune!✨

The best video on log lifting I have seen. Can we please have a video on the deadlift next?

Love the videos! And your teaching is great and easy to understand, I've got my first comp in May for first timers so What is the proper way to the yoke

Hello "Bish", I enjoyed the video, very clear and consise. I would like to see next some tips on how to increase overhead strenght. But really, i´ll watch anything from a WSM finalist.

This is a brilliant tutorial, best channel I've come accross, keep them coming. I would be interested to see how you split your sessions and how long your sessions are and how you fit it around work life. I am also interested in diet management tips again around work life. Haven't seen any flasks of cranberry juice yet, what is your secret to hydration? Best of luck for Brits😀

Hi Adam, subscribed and looking forward to more vids. I get that it's a strongman channel, but would love to see rugby training vids also......not ball throwing, gym stuff, ie what are the best days (if playing on the weekend), reps and what movements etc. Thanks Chris.

Great video yoke walk video will be nice hand bar foot position

I am a mere 5'10'' and weigh around 164lbs - yet i want to give this a go. It's never too late to get stronger. First things first though: i need to get myself a training log or have one made by a blacksmith. Any suggestions (size of the log [length without the loading sleeves, diameter and gauge of the steel], size of the handles and where to have them placed [what width between the two, how far are they spaced out]). I figured it'd be more budget friendly for me to gather all the necessary materials and have a skilled blacksmith make it for me as these things are heavy and it'd be too expensive for me to order them and have them shipped. Awesome tutorial, by the way: very nicely explained and carried out. I feel i can attempt it now!

Hi Adam great in depth video on log pressing. Does the size of a log make a difference in technique and will it hinder me if I use a small log. The gym I go to recently bought a 8 inch log. Weighs about 30kg never used it but I’ll try it on Friday. Deadlift tutorial would be good as your within touching distance of the 1000lb club. Good luck at Britain’s strongest man 👍🏻

Nice bideo

great video adam. would be great to see once of these videos on your view of the deadlift!

Great videos so far enjoying the channel! Will you be running through a full days eating at any point?

Awesome vid. My first ever attempt at these was earlier today. Managed 102.5kg easily but just getting the technique down. I do have to Practice my stability tho. Question - should your feet be in line with the handles?

Sandbag technique videos would be a great help.. doing my first ever comp in March that has X2 sandbag events... sandbag go shoulder and sandbag over 48” yoke .. any tips would be brilliant 😊

Really informative. If you're doing log for reps at what point do you breathe? When the log is over your head or when you're in the squat?

Only been able to use a log twice but it's so much more fun then bench press and OHP. Maybe because I get to use my hips and legs 😂

What about the push/power jerk as a 4th option for the press? It is slightly more technical than a push press (though less so than a split jerk) and can cut off a good 20% of the lock-out ROM for people who don't have the triceps strength for heavy push press lockouts. Thoughts?

Well, as you are very good at deadlifting (this is an understatement), I would like to know your tips and tricks about this movement, or a 'how to'. I have noticed that you have a very narrow foot stance during deadlifting. Some (really big) people have a much wider stance. Brian Shaw comes to mind, and Jerry Pritchett also has a wide stance (and a wide grip). I wonder why you choose such a narrow stance. Is this to put more emphasis on your hamstrings and back? Your stance seems to be much more narrow than hip width. I also wonder what programming advice you have to make progress with the deadlift, I mean for lifters who are past the beginner's phase for sure. Maybe address some quality deadlift variants such as wide-grip deadlift, block or deficit pull, axle deadlift, and whether you use RDLs. And what about the trap/hex bar? One more question about the deadlift. Is it essential to extend your knees fast when deadlifting? I ask because the bar skips over a few inches of my upper legs as soon as I pass my knees. I recently noticed. The bar is supposed to keep in contact with your legs all the time. The bar definitely keeps in contact with my shins, then skips a bit of leg just above my knee, and from there it is smooth sailing again. I usually have some mild bruising on my shins from deadlifting, a possible indicator of me keeping my shins/knees too far forward too long? Sorry to be so long-winded. If you don't have the time to read it or address (some) of it, no worries. Have fun training and best of luck with the upcoming competition.

Hi Adam, Great video, I've got my first novice comp in May and it's got log!! What assistance work should I be working into my routine to complement the log. Cheers John

Yoke?

Is it worth buying one over a barbell?

I struggle with breathing at the top. If I hold my brace through the whole lift, I get light headed. Any suggestions??

What accessories could you do if you’re failing to clean weights you know you could press?

How much weight have you put on since you started competing. It would be interesting to see a full day of eating.

DM's you, on insta, would love to train with you. I have different goals but i'll pay for A SESSION
