It is not hard to incorporate strongman training techniques in your athletes programs, but you have to make sure the technique is right. Otherwise, the benefit will not outweigh the risks. Key points: – Do not deadlift the tire – Keep arms straight – Hips back – Drive through the tire – Do not deadlift the tire If you are TOO CLOSE TO THE TIRE when flipping (ie deadlifting the tire) when you STAND UP you are in a bad spot and have to wrestle with the tire with your biceps. Also, a more athletic position starts with your hips back (in about a 45deg angle) and driving forward. The video also demonstrates a quick way to modify a tire to make it easier for younger athletes or for tires with bad tread and low profiles.
