I wanted to break in the new gym this weekend (name change to “Strength And Performance HQ) so I invited Tim Mosolino down from Boston and Jedd Johnson up from PA.
Tim does a lot of training with NFL athletes prepping for the combine and has newly been hooked on strongman training. Jedd is a world record holding grip champion, and an all around strong guy.
And then I was there too, haha!
Oh, and I also challenged Jedd to two grip challenges. The first was the event he has the world record in, the two hand Euro Pinch. I mustered up around 160 lbs, just a tad shy of the record…256 lbs..
Jedd also wrote the book on card tearing. Literally – Jedd’s Card Tearing Manual. This event wasn’t sooo bad…
Also we squatted and tried out my homemade yoke, enough of me talking, check out the video
Strength Gathering at the HQ
Good times and strong lifting. I couldn’t ask for anything more.

PS. If you are in the NY or PA area (or want to make a trip) post up a comment and I will get together an open gym day some weekend to bring everyone in to lift and talk working out!
If this snow ever stops I’d be down to swing up on a weekend to come train, or even around the PA State Seminar maybe? Let me know man. I’ll bring a couple heads too, one of my interns I’m sure would be game.
Hopefully we see you here in April. If so, we can get one in on Friday or Sunday around the seminar.
I will take you up on that offer. Probably more realistic towards the summer. I train teams most weekends right now. Are you attending the PA State Seminar? You could swing into Bucknell as you are traveling through-just an idea! Jay you are always welcome as well buddy!
Hey Joe, New place looks awesome, Congratulations!!! I bought Bull Strength last night love it too, so that’s Homemade Gym Equipment, Bull Strength Conditioning & Now Bull Strength Love them all, that’s three for three, not bad Joe lol. Congratulations Jedd on the New one coming!!
an open gym day in NY would be awesome…ive also got a few people i train with, who ive introduced this type of training to, that would definitely make the trip as well…
