Introducing the first of the heat events for the CrossFit Reading Strength and Power Meet (in Association with FK.UK) – the log clean and press.

This year, the event will see the inclusion of a number of pieces of traditional strongman kit, such as this 35kg strongman log.

All the strongman equipment is kindly being supplied by BeaverFit, and will be available to purchase on the day at a reduced cost.

No doubt some folk will have used some of the equipment before. For others it will be like being in a toy shop surrounded by shiny new toys and a whole bunch of friends to enjoy them with!

So FK.UK teamed up with strength coach and last year’s heavyweight winner Phil Nourse to shed some light on log technique.

Watch as Phil demonstrates various options for getting the load from ground-to-chest, and then from chest-to-overhead.

(Please ignore the dodgy aspect ratio. Phil is big – but not that big!)

But what will the event be? Max weight overhead? For reps? Something else entirely? Only one way to find out…be there!
