understanding of the sport, little he has.

I was of course reffering to the elephant bar. If I recall correctly, some folk couldn't get their heads around the numbers he claimed to lift. They reasoned, that if was capable of lifting such numbers, they would have known who he was. Whoever he was, he always had excellent advice to contribute - The dude knew his stuff for certain! | ||

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14374 posts | aaron_lohan said: I've nothing against Matt. Nothing to forgive. That was my best guess too. Not seen him to ask him since, although I'd probably have a lot of other things to talk about first. Are you out on Tuesday? | ||

Lovely ass Congrats.

Thanks for bringing me up to speed. Just had a look at his lifts. They are certainly some big numbers. | ||

They are certainly some big numbers. They were bigger than big. From memory he claimed to routinely squat 40 kgs more than the British record, bench 50 kgs more and deadlift 60 kgs more. That's just silly he over-egged the pudding to quite a degree. He even seemed amazed that he was doubted. So if I say I can run the 100 metres and you ask me in what time and I say 8 seconds. Would I be shocked that you laughed and walked away. I would not, he was. But hey, what do I know ? | ||

Good point well made, but I still know a pudding with too many eggs when I see one. If I didn't claim to be a drug-free sprinter would you still believe 8 seconds ? | ||

He also, if I recall correctly claimed to be a British Weightlifter of some repute and had been on the national squad for some years. At the time there were real people on here who had been in the same squad at the same time. So if real, they would have known him. But still he remained hidden and secretive. | ||

Gun to my head, I would certainly bet he was a fake account, but you never know. | ||

Lost his pen, then found his pen. #phew Member 4899, 2956 posts | I seem to recall his numbers being very similar to another former British Weightlifter who we knew did actually post here - which seemed to piss some people off no end... | ||
