Axle squat weight is 240kg (10kg up on last year's ESM) which was won by John Marsden with 10 reps.

Squat is at 2:47 if you want to see the set up and good (but on the line, i.e. any higher would be no-repped) depth:

If anyone has any updates on guys pulling out/not being able to be a reserve etc please can you give me as much notice as possible as it would be great to have a full compliment of athletes from each country.

Cheers.


I entered the Welsh 105's for a bit of fun. I have the Welsh 90's the week before this comp, so if one of the top three from Wales pulled out I very much doubt I would be ready for this!!

What the f**k do you know - you are just the ref!

They look spot on to me, but if they are an inch in then only cutting by 1.5inch would mean a "no lift"... which is why I thought they were a good example.

Grin

maybe, but 1.5" is a LOT to cut...my point was only that those weren't "borderline" squats!

I hope we see the same standard of squatting, as 95% of the guys squatted very well indeed (and to correct depth) last year

its a mute point that there is no real merit in discussing

i'd liken it too a conversation about if ben would beat Sadler at 105? Not going to happen, so pretty pointless discussion...
