We had a great time yesterday! Met Shukin and the dude is a great guy. He owns a pizza parlor up in Hokkaido and flew 1.25 hours to Tokyo, THEN a 2 hour train ride to Yokota Air Base to meet us.! BADASS!

Corey St Clair (hang clean & press 235 lbs for reps): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-kXfPSv04M

Shukin going for a PR in the Power Clean & press. He never done this exercise before!

Higa doing some light squats. I'm doing a heavy Yoke Walk today, so didn't want to go crazy on the squats: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wsduk-CELuE

Airman Sosa who was doing this CRAZY exercise! I have never seen this before. Only towel chin-ups are the closest I have seen to this.

Corey St Clair trying the Gi chin-ups. He weighs 320 lbs, so this was badass!

Corey St Clair one-arm 150 lb dumbbell snatch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=86_JMsHrkCU

Higa one-arm pressing the 150 lb dumbbell. I couldn't snatch it cause it felt slick:

Shukin doing a DB Snatch circuit we set up for him. Keep in mind he has never done this exercise before!

There was 2 other Airmen that worked out with us, but Shukin definitely was the man cause he was like a sponge and wanted to learn alot of things.
G Diesel, this boy is from your hood cause he was born in Philly!

I hooked the boys up with some shirts and sample supplements that Corporate had sent over. I still have some leftover shirts and will hand the out to the crown today at the Strongman contest. May give shirts to the competitors too, but I don't know how many of them are competing yet.

ANIMALS are alive and well here in Japan. Shukin can definitely hold things down here and is looking forward to competing in the Strongman contest today!

At first, I thought Sosa was doing some towel chin-ups. When I saw he was holding on to the lapels of the gi, I was trippin!

Its been a great time. The "Yokota Strongman Challenge" starts at 12pm JST.
Thats about 7 hours away from now.
