Are you referring to lumberjack / timber sport events or the job of logging?

Strongman events, Highland games, and Lumberjack sporting events are very different from the day-in-day-out nature of logging for a living years at a time.

There isn't a lot of double bit axe throwing in the profession of logging.
Definitely referring to the job, which is what I thought the thread was about haha. My bad if wrong
 
I used to train a few professional Stihl Timbersport athletes back in the day and got to meet quite a few real life loggers at timbersport shows during that time. These guys are no joke beasts. Two quick stories: Richard, a logger by trade, did a full turkish get up with a 40kg bell first time attempt. It wasn't pretty, but it was impressive. Another fella, whose name I didn't get, all six feet six of him and 300 lbs at least, picked up the 40Kg one of my athletes had brought with him, bottoms up cleaned it and pressed it. "What is this," he asked. "Some kinda exercise thingy?"
