left the country satisfied Member 10, 19241 posts SQ 240, BP 150, DL 270660.0 kgs @ 107kgs UnEq | colinj said: .....Thanks for the compliment! I may be way off the mark but im thinking of not competing till mid 2011! That would give me 2 years of solid training! hopefully be a lean 19 and a half to 20 stone by then! just dont forget that it is a moving target. As a growing sport every year the comps get harder and harder to place well. If you place on the same sport two years apart you have made progress! With that in mind, just get stuck in again mate and enjoy the ride! | ||

Old Age Presser Member 75, 7734 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq | Welcome to the forum Colin. I was the guy on the mike when you nearly won in 2007. Running a gym does mess you up though. Good luck with the 'comeback'. | ||

Was thinking of doing a few comps this year but I knew I wasn't where I should be, If your ever near burnley let us know and we can have a training session, also when i have time i wouldn't mind travelling and do some event training with a few of you guys if thats ok? | ||

the one with a meathead gym in Burnley Member 420, 209 posts | (29/09/2009) Spent 45 mins on Stones. Warm up with 80kg stone, 8 reps to shoulder. I then ran through the stones twice as follows... 80kg to 6ft 100kg to 5ft 120kg to 4 1/2 ft 130kg to 4 ft 150kg to 4 ft They all felt very well, so tried for the 100kg to 6ft, but not enough shoulder power there at the moment! | ||

I tried pressing it, im just short of 6ft myself and when the stone is on my shoulder its still a fair way off going up - so presumed i will have to press it up. Im also presuming that when I can press it, it will save time in competition? well thats the theory!!! | ||

the one with a meathead gym in Burnley Member 420, 209 posts | 30/09/2009 Shoulders clean and press 60 x8 80 x6 100 x6 120 x3 one are dumbell press (really seemed to like these!) 30 x6 each arm 50 x3 each arm 60 x1 each arm 75 x1 only right arm. Viking style press machine (not sure of weights but went lighter for more reps). Did lots of side raises etc, but only going to log my main lifts. Next week im starting back lifting the log - something i very much dislike! No weight training tonight - rugby training (only been twice so il expect to get smashed up tonight!!) | ||
