Stone Lifting : One Arm Press

7/21/20

The rock was in the river bed, probably 65-75lbs.

(Due to shape feeling heavier, more analogous to 100-120lb dumbbell.)

I got it near the shore, and started attempting to press it one handed standing in water at rib cage almost chest level.

With wrist bent back all the way, and facing sidewards away from my body I got a couple reps left hand and up to 7 reps right handed the rock being flatter, and longer than a dumbbell forcing my sides to fire hard.

There’s no doubt in my mind that big red haired kilt wearing highlanders weren’t ox strong.

Look at what the highland games is. You know those good ole boys were lifting rocks in every which way in competition with each other.

There is more to physicality than the inside of a gym.
