Kieliszkowski prefers lifting weights between four and five in the afternoon, believing he’s at his strongest during that time. Kieliszkowski’s Arnold Classic prep is straightforward: focus on lifting heavy in the events that will featured at the 2024 ASC.
We must prepare everything perfectly, measure…record, and calculate everything, so that this training goes perfectly.

Kieliszkowski starts his day with breakfast comprised of five to seven eggs, bread, nuts, and sunflower seeds. He consumes three to four meals before training. Kieliszkowski wore elbow sleeves, knee sleeves, and a lifting belt in the gym.
Kieliszkowski’s 2024 Arnold Strongman Classic Training
Below is a breakdown of Kieliszkowski’s 2024 ASC prep training:
Axle Press
Per Kieliszkowski, the axle press at the 2024 ASC weighs in at 182 kilograms (401 pounds). The Apollon Wheels feature an axle bar — a straight barbell that is thicker than a standard Olympic barbell — and a movement similar to the clean and jerk. However, an axle press has a notable difference in that athletes can rest the bar on their lifting belt mid-lift to regrip for the press.

Kieliszkowski uses a mixed grip when deadlifting. He arches his lower back to nudge the weight up his torso to his chest. He prepares the overhead press with a wider-than-shoulder grip when the bar reaches a front rack position.
Frame Carry
The frame carry is similar to the Timber Carry but with steel instead of wood. Kieliszkowski lifts a rectangular steel frame that has corners loaded with weight plates. He deadlifts to a farmer’s carry to walk the frame it up a steel hydraulic ramp inclined by a tractor.
Dinnie Stones Carry
Finally, Kieliszowski’s team bored holes into stones to mimic the Dinnie Stones carry. Kieliszkowski lifted and carried the rocks a short distance using chain handles.
Despite the setbacks, I still have the appetite; I still have the ambition for victory.
