I enjoyed watching this video a lot bro you seem in bliss doing what you enjoy. I understand this feeling because when i used to be younger in my early 20s i used to work in construction, and in my country its known as the most avoided labour job, but when people ask me why the hell you work there id answer: because i have so much fun" and they be in shock, but i enjoyed lifting cement bags and one wheel karts of sand and unloading trucks ... I felt super strong and confident in those days like im glued the ground and i think thsts because of lifing awkward objects since it gives you kinda random sores, it trains your body to be more balanced and ready ... Anyway bro sorry for the long comment but im happy to see you enjoying yourself in your backyard! Cheers brother!

Most of the time its on a Friday or a Saturday or both

where do you go about finding a stone so heavy

Different rock types weigh different weights. I know this rock lifting stuff is really difficult. I've never aimed to exercise like this with boulders, but I've moved lots of blocks of sandstone, loaded it into my pickup truck, and moved it home to build an elaborate stone garden. Some of the stones were so heavy I couldn't lift them, but they were long enough where I could lean them into the tailgate and then lift them up on one end. I can testify that this kind of work is REALLY draining. But like you say, unlike weight lifting, it has more practical application.

@@LairdRoss I doubt if any of the rocks I brought home approached the weight that you do just for exercise. Respect to you. (Just careful with your back, per great weight and balance.) Also, I had a few pinched fingers to go along with the experience.

Nah I am all good. They have handles in there stone and grip holds. If they were any good, some of them would enter the international strongman competitions, but they don't.
