INSANE Prep Secrets: Trey Mitchell on WSM Events, Grip Training, Max Log & AI Conspiracies | Nick Best

Nick Best hosts a live Q&A for Patreon members with Trey Mitchell and Ben, discussing discipline and learning strongman skills by mastering event rules, technique details, and individualized training cycles while seeking advice to prevent injuries. They address a conspiracy theory about celebrity clones by recommending not engaging with such content, blocking sources, and quickly swiping past unwanted posts to reduce algorithmic exposure, noting AI makes fake media harder to detect. The conversation shifts to Trey’s recent Arnold performance and excitement for a max log at World’s Strongest Man, plus preparation for farmers into power stairs, overhead medley strategy, grip work (plate finger holds, behind-the-back barbell holds, arm-over-arm), truck/bus pull training alternatives, and using equipment tweaks like taping bars and liquid chalk. Trey also mentions gym upgrades, Facebook Marketplace buys, and his sponsors SBD, Belfast Formula, and John Henry Meats.
