But thats a given surely. Terry was competing when marius was dominant...and Terry has improved massively statically
Marius would have done the same..it puzzles me as to why folk think otherwise?


Pudz was great at what he needed to be to win wsm at the time. Was it ever necessary to pull 450 to win wsm? No. Funnily enough you needed to be bat s**t quick on events and awesome at repping oh and deads so he was.

Just as with the generations before, he was a product of the competition, if the competition was different, he would have been I'm sure

VanillaGorilla said:Agreed, to be at that level you are going to be pushing the limits of the human body. Shaw is indeed very fit *for his size* but that isn't the same as being healthy.

Perfect example is a road cyclist and spin bike instructor who is one of the fittest guys I've ever met Wink , just had a heart attack in his late forties.

It's sacrifice though, balancing perceived risk versus reward, and you can never discredit someone for taking those risks. Those risk takers are the people who make us believe that the impossible is possible, pushing the limits of what it is to be human.

chaos said:I think this year is gonna be closer than ever (although have said this past couple fo years! LOL), some really really strong guys now. Z, lalas, shaw, radz, burke, tel, loz, thor, misha all in with a real shout and are constantly improving! Not sure mongo and ed are quite there yet (no offence intended and obviously would love mongo to win it), they just need another year or so mixing it with the top guys to get their game up (and past) their level!

Whatever the result it gonna be a f**kin awesome comp!


I highly doubt Misha will be anywhere near the top. The new guys are as good as he is at what he's good at, overhead squat etc.

Think it's pretty crazy to say poundstones definately not going to factor. Totally depends on the events.

I have to agree, i do wish he'd have won that year when he went head to head to pudz on the stones for the title though.

Agreed, i have always liked Poundstone as an athlete and followed him. In the past year his intensity seems to have dropped off.

He seems more interested inpromoting Soya protein and Pundstone radio.

Agree 100 precent, surely his recent track record shows this

he has no hope in hell of being anywhere near shaw, z, jenkins , lalas etc

pretty sure hixxy and edd are alot better currently

He was pretty good at 2012 Arnold's. If he hadn't of been so lean and gained a stone or so more I think he would of got the log and won again. This year's Arnold's was a mess, you could see from his pre-Arnold training vid that his prep was off...2012 he was doing 200+kg logs in training, for 2013 he had his nice new pretty 400lbs log which he never lifted more than and just hoped on the day he would lift the Austrain Oak that is 50lbs heavier and much larger and awkward.

I expect he will show up 100% for worlds. He's top 10 in world imo, top 5-6 with right events for him.
