| so.. bsm u105 1st event... shield... felt great up to forty metres... then i turned and fell into a world of pain... the speed of deterioration was mental... tried a funky crab technique for 1 s**tty metre.. starting gagging then it was over.. 50 ish metres.. 7th or 8th oh.. still f**ked from shield carry... feeling shaky and sick.. db.. took my time and nailed it.. log next.. clean it.. felt dizzy.. couldn't stand still for s**t.. f**ked up the jerk... tried again.. took off belt as it was a bit too tight.. had nothing.. then nearly to my head off with an over zealous stone clean.. 3rd from last deadlift... 260 being previous max.. 270 was my target.. 260.. good, 270.. felt tough but good.. 280.. about 3 inches 3rd from last ( i think) frame carry... took my time to make sure i completed it... about 40 seconds i think.. 6th in this maybe?? fingals... boom something i'm quite good at.. nailed 8 reps for joint second with simon t stones.. got the first 4.. last one 144?? pb for me.. so no complaints.. 7th overall.. prettty pleased overall.. bring on uk105, britain natural 105... and possibly msm... | |||
