All very informal, three attempts overhead and three attempts deadlift. Cracking atmosphere and attracted a few names you might remember last time round. | ||

vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought...

I weighed 103kg I could have lifted more in comps after the commonwealth game but I lost my motivation to train for Olympic lifting. Thanks for the reply Del! Why'd you lose motivation if you dont mind me asking? I heard you jerked 230kg (!?) off the rack in training. Unreal!!! I jerked 230 or about 2 weeks before the commonwealth games and just missed 240kg. After the commonwealth games things went very wrong! I lost my job and grant funding in the same week! I also had no where to train for about 3 or 4 months. So life was very crap in that period of time. That all changed when I went to train at Mark Cullimore's gym called Maximums at the time (now The gallery). We really look after our athletes in this country don't we?! | ||

Will mark felix be deadlifting in one of your comps? Marks a bit off top form at the mo following his arm surgery last year but the guy will be back. That would be a pulling showdown. the next one is 21st March but we can sort something for when your calendar allows you to dust off the cobwebs a bit. We can sort something for later in the year to hopefully work in with everyone. | ||

To be honest mate, if we could get you there we can work round dates that suit you to a certain extent. Felix will no doubt be lifting once he's fully fit again. August might be a good one for him. Give us an idea of what your schedule is like and we can see what we can come up with. Be good to see you lifting overhead again!!! | ||

Member 156, 10 posts SQ 445, BP 265, DL 3901100.0 kgs @ 108kgs Eq | Find out when Mark is fit and it could fit in to his plans. I will be there! later in the year or at the end of the year will be good for me. Need to have some time getting the clean and jerk up. | ||
