Stone Lifting Testimonial
Stone Lifting is a part of many strongman contests.
If you don’t know what you are doing, you can get your ass handed to you and end up with serious injuries.
It was for this reason that Smitty and I set out to put together a resource that new strongman competitors could use to learn the proper techniques for lifting atlas stones.
The idea was to produce something that would give new competitors the information they needed to keep them safe and injury free in the beginning and then go on to dominate as time went on.
A while back, we received this testimonial / review about our Stone Lifting Fundamentals DVD from Rob Russell in Yorkshire. Check out what he had to say, below.
CHECK OUT THIS KILLER POST AFTER THE JUMP
“My name is Rob Russell and I have been training for 20 years. I’m 34 and live in Yorkshire in the UK. I have represented Great Britain at under 20 and under 23 level in Shot Putt and Discus until I had a car crash in 1997. Since then I scaled down the Track and Field somewhat and now train at home in my ‘Hardcore Dungeon of Strength’ lifting fat bars, kettlebells, using iron woody bands, grippers, stones, sandbags and any other sh*t I can lay my hands on that’s heavy and nasty. I still compete in amateur athletics and over the last 3years I have competed in several Highland Games and have lifted the Dinnie Stones (unassisted) and Inver Stone and won The Atlas Stone comp hosted by Geoff Capes (first time ever on the stones, heaviest stone was 160kg) this year. My URL is http://kettlebell-training-for-sport.blogspot.com. Any way, enough harping on about that…
Here’s my testimonial…
I thought I knew all I needed to know about Stone Training until I watched Stone Lifting Fundamentals. WOW! This DVD has added some serious ‘Kick Ass’ moves into my already large ‘arsenal’ of ‘must do’ exercises that are gonna transform my posterior chain from a ‘Stronghold’ into one hell of a ‘Fortress’.
So thanks Jedd I couldn’t have dreamt up some of the movements in Stone Lifting Fundamentals if I tried.
Yours in strength,
Rob Russell

Rob, thanks for the kind words on our DVD. It’s good to hear that our Stone Lifting DVD has been so helpful.
Here’s a little background info on our Stone Lifting Fundamentals DVD that not a lot of people know…
- It wasn’t just Smitty and I that worked on this DVD, we got a ton of help from one of our good friends – Rick Walker.
- We shot the entire DVD in one day (5+ hours between breakfast and lunch) and we covered just about every single detail we could think of.
- Smitty and I brain-stormed the flow of the DVD for hours on end and then Rick threw in many other points. Between the three of us, we had several years of experience training on atlas stones and about 10 total contests under our belts. So we knew what worked for us and what didn’t.
- We designed the DVD to be useful for strength coaches as well, so they could use the cues we cover with their athletes. The DVD also has a host of stone lifting variations for excellent carryover to sporting movements.
- It took me several weeks to compile all the footage and edit it down, all the while learning new software, so to receive this great review was something that really makes me feel good after we put so much hard work in it.
If you are interested in learning the basics of atlas stone training but have no coaches and no experienced athletes in your area, this is the DVD for you.
You can pick it up here = = > Stone Lifting Fundamentals DVD.
Thanks again for coming to our site, and all the best in your atlas stone training.
Your buddy,
Jedd

Trading cryptocurrencies is a lucrative opportunity for many.
While crypto trading is profitable, it can be highly
pernicious to the traders if not done properly.
By proper means, one should do it with the right set of tools and the right
mindset. Time waits for no one and the crypto exchage market is
no exception. A plethora of cryptocurrencies, advanced tools, market volatility, and trading strategies may all cause confusion to
the new as well as expert traders.
Fortunately, technology has made it possible for the traders to automate the exchage process including market analysis, order execution, predicting market trends, and more.
Automated crypto trading is one of the best practices used by computer programs/trading bots to buy and sell cryptocurrencies.
These software tools are intended to react to market changes to trade at the right moment.
Traders can consider automate trading via the best crypto exchage platforms by
making use of trading bots, advanced orders, and
more.
Automated trading
So, automated trading is a method of participating in crypto or stock markets
by using a program that executes pre-set rules for entering and exiting
trades. As the trader, you will combine thorough technical analysis with
setting parameters for your positions, such
as orders to open, trailing stops, trailing
stop loss orders, take profit, etc.
Automated trading methods enable you to carry out many or multiple trades in a small amount of time,
with the added benefit of taking the emotion out of your decisions.
That’s because all the rules of the trade are already built into the preset parameters.
With some algorithms, the traders can even use the pre-determined strategies to
follow trends and trade accordingly.
Automated crypto trading relies on algorithms which are actually the set
of instructions used to solve computational issues.
In the crypto sphere, algorithms can trade digital assets on behalf of
the traders. And, the programs which use algorithms to trade are the bots.
The best platforms offer a variety of bots to the traders
which work based on preset conditions, signals, market
analysis, and more. Usually, trading bots use APIs that help traders to interact with multiple exchanges.

Hi there! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog. Is it tough to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast. I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to start. Do you have any points or suggestions? Thanks
