Structured Strongman Training Session Highlights: 9 May 2009 - Strongman SuperYoke and Powerlifting Club Bench

G'Day Mate, we have a special from down under in today's Strongman Spotlight.
Introducing Lee Rasmussen,

His training partners include the current Western Australia's Strongest Man, Daniel Macri, and New Zealand's Strongest Man competitor Sam Aickin. At 88kg, he's the lightest of the 3 (Dan is 155kg), but what a grip he has! Lee specialises in grip strength, having just been certified as a Mash Monster #3 closer: http://www.mashmonster.com/ (his name's right down the bottom).

Having heard about us Behemoths through a martial arts instructor, Lee, who trains Strongman in Perth, emailed us and we arranged for him to join us for today's session.
The Strongman SuperYoke and Powerlifting Club Bench
Lee impresses on the Strongman SuperYoke, a staple in their training down under as well.
Lee joining in our Powerlifting Club segment where our members come weekly to learn and to share tips and techniques. This time, it came from Down Under!
And now for the feature,
Our latest toys, the Heavy Grip Handgrippers, ranging from a "Beginner-100lbs" to the "Grip Monster-350lbs"- recently brought in for our members to test and increase their grip strength, were given a masterclass by Lee.


From the basics of 'setting' the gripper with proper placement to 'pulling the trigger' and making an official close, Lee gave our members a clinic with his awe-inspiring demonstration of the above and all the finer points in between.


Members taking away valuable lessons in grip stregth from an expert which will in turn translate us having a stronger grip!
Once again, all of us here would like to extend our gratitude to Lee for his expert advice, keen participation and strong friendship.

Lee had one more trick up his sleeve though,
Don't worry, we cleaned up after. But what awesome grip strength!
