Been lifting consistently for the past year. Lifted in high school, but hard drugs took me out of any kind of productive life at age 17. I've recently decided to switch over to the dark side. 5 weeks out from my first strongman competition, and I'm kind of just diving head first into the world of strength sports. I've researched gear and pharmacological enhancement fairly obsessively for the past 6 months or more. My diet is USUALLY on point, pretty balanced in micro nutrients and good macros. I'm eating at a slight surplus around 3000-3600 calories per day. I don't have everything "dialed in", but I'm a pretty intelligent individual. I'm doing a deep dive into strength programming, and it's even piqued my interest so much I just enrolled into school for sports and exercise science. I'm going to use this log for accountability, just general tracking of progress, and as an actual journal. Over the past years I've learned the importance that journaling and getting things down on paper can be. And I'm sure I'll make some friends along the way, and the more friends the merrier right?

Height: 6'
Weight: 258 Lbs
Bf%: Idk still a little fuckin chubby.

____________________________________________

Man today was busy as fuck. Had to take a trip to a city a little over an hour away for work reasons. But it was good though. I'm happy with the outcome of the situation. however, the nutrition today was not on point at fuckin all. I did my best with gas station food as far as keeping macro's somewhat in check. Visited my girlfriend on the way back. Decided to check around for powerlifting gym's since I was out of town. I train at a basic ass gym with mostly older people, but it has a power rack and a barbell so I'm good.

Found a pretty sweet powerlifting gym that had some strongman equipment, fuckin score. I was hoping for a space to do some farmer's walks or push a sled, some sort of conditioning. Turns out the didn't have too much strongman equipment. Tons of legit powerlifting stuff, and still a nice little gym none the less. It was my first time touching a log implement, so I had to push the limit. Pretty happy with the outcome, and I got to practice the continental clean and press.

Pretty sweet day if I say so.
 
My best advice to you is to learn and nail down the technique. Strongman is far more technical than most people realize. If you can afford it, get a coach. If not, look at some of the stuff that kalle beck and Anthony furhman have put out. If you failed a 200 lb log on your first time ever, I can guarantee you your technique failed you, not your strength.

strongman is a lot about strength, but it’s also about technique, endurance, and athleticism too.

otherwise just keep grinding and putting in the work

______________________________

I'm bumping up the calories. I'm also going to replace most of the whey protein I'm eating with real foods. Had to have some burgers for 4th of July (Murica), but I do have ground beef to replace on of my chicken meals. Plus some eggs to replace the whey in the morning, and beef liver for at night. I just really like the nutrient profile of an organ meat like liver. Rest day today, tried to take today completely a rest day. Did take a small bike ride and got some shopping done.
 
What are the events at your meet going to be?

You need to hit a weight class?

Overhead medley, max deadlift, hand over hand truck pull, crucifix hold, and loading medley. No specific weight class. Im competing in the novice 220+ class. Im not trying to crank the calories through the roof though right away. Im slowly titrating the calories up. After this comp I'm gonna try to get little lean though, maybe drop down to 231 weight class and compete in the future.

Cool event list! That seems very doable with minimal implement availability as far as prep goes.

I think it's wise not to crank the calories up too high, at 5 weeks out, it's not a great strategy to try to spike your weight through the roof at this stage of the game.

Better attention can be paid to training, I think. I also don't see much benefit to being that much bigger with that event list, aside from overhead medley.

Why 80% ground beef? It appears you're eating low fat, and that 80% GB doesn't really fall into that

I was eating low fat, now I'm bumping the calories up.

I was in a much bigger deficit before signing up for the comp a few weeks ago. And i have an issue with bumping calories too fast because I put on fat wayyy to easily.

I started out at around the same height and weight as you (6'1" 260, ~25% BF), and since March of 2020 when I made it a mission to transform my body composition, I am now down to 246 and ~16% BF, and I compete MWO just like you plan to. It's certainly possible to make the changes, just know they don't happen overnight.

As long as you plan for the long game, you'll be able to make the change without setting yourself up for failure.
