 Champion of Under The Radar 105 Member 805, 5301 posts SQ 325, BP 202.5, DL 335862.5 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | Why no continental cleans? Thought this was strongman not weightlifting, each to their own I surpose, other events all look good, good luck to those competing | ||

 Full mask or nasal and chin strap? Member 3254, 2485 posts | Two overhead events is very much against the grain of most strongman competitions I've saw and been in where all that really matters is what you can deadlift IMO Each to their own though and good luck with the comp! I will give this some thought | ||

I do hope that makes sense Which I think is the crux here You got the same reps as me on the van deadlift because you're as good a puller as I am at the moment... And if your training doesn't show this then in the long run it should, because you showed it when you needed to Valdas too has strength which in time will easily transfer towards this movement pattern I feel and the fact he hasn't actually hasn't yet deadlifted more than 260kg in itself doesn't mean too much because just to reiterate (I think we can agree on this) he will shift big weights off the floor with a bar in his hands before too long The stone run video (if anybody has it) will show that he has a very strong back and that was the last event too mind. I'm also going to completely stab in the dark and say I bet he did quite well at the van deadlift too...? | ||
