Member 4601, 118 posts | When going on about these calibrated plates, I very much doubt un-calibrated plates are going to be off by a significant enough difference to matter (we're hardly talking 15kg) but is it not just as likely that they could be heavier than the stated weight? I do remember training with some plates that were closer to 21kg rather than 20! Other than Ursus, Mark and Terry (apologies if I'm missing anyone out) both Ed and Hixxy put a s**t ton more weight up in any kind of shoulder event than anyone else that posts on here, so why not stop b**ching, get behind them and see what they can do, rather than arguing over some theoretical max lift some time in the future! | ||

Are you winning ? Member 2482, 580 posts | Didn't Paul Cater do a 195kg back in 2012 at Rob's? | ||

Well, if you were into conspiracy theories, you would just use the lighter ones and not the heavier ones, wouldn't you? | ||

vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought... Member 340, 13300 posts SQ 315, BP 190, DL 350855.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | TomHibbert said:Didn't Paul Cater do a 195kg back in 2012 at Rob's? I think he did... Cater is a superb log presser. Even though it was at the log lift champs I believe it is not recognised by Colin Bryce etc as it was not part of a full strongman comp' and maybe non-calibrated plates too? Or maybe just because it was not a Giants Live / WSM event? I don't buy into the full comp' thing because you can just make it the first event and then people can drop out anyway. | ||

either Im a penis or Im not a penis Member 722, 2977 posts SQ 300, BP 220, DL 350870.0 kgs @ 123kgs UnEq | I rarely read this page anymore, and this thread is a prime example of why. Firstly, let me state one thing all the people mentioned ED, Hixxy, Loz extra can all lift more than me in all the lifts. Just stating the obvious before someone starts their BS on me. I find it very strange that people have to attack someone on here when they disagree with the majority, i.e. Ed being better overhead than Hixxy. If someone had said the opposite, I am quite sure there wouldn't be 8 pages of b**ching about 'no he's not', more like 8 pages of mutual masturbation. I train with Ed and agree with the statement made, that Ed is the best presser in the UK. Nobody believed his 420kg raw deadlift was real, did Eds fans and friends come on here attacking people - NO!. What happened ? He just pissed the deadlift event at the Brits and made it look f**king easy, then went to Europes and showed the World what he was capable of. The same is happening with his overhead, oh this persons better etc. We are all allowed to show loyalty to people we admire and look up to but instead of us lesser mortals b**ching and crying about it, let the lads do their stuff. Let the weights in a comp do the talking. MAX Log in the Brits next year should settle that. In the meantime lets put away our laminated pics of our favorite strongmen and save some testosterone for training. | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5206 posts | LessThanLuke said: Yup it was just the rudeness and the tone of his posts that were the issue. I agree with you. I said I believe Ed has the strongest shoulders in UK but wouldn't be surprised if Hixxys at the same level on log. Everyone is entitled to opinions but being disrespectful for the sake of It is just trolling, plain and simple. | ||

If someone had said the opposite, I am quite sure there wouldn't be 8 pages of b**ching about 'no he's not', more like 8 pages of mutual masturbation. . Well if you did visit more often you would still find 8 pages of discussion, instead (and rather ironically) you feel the need to come on and b**ch about us b**ching! The style of the origianl posting was inflammatory and I'm sure if soemone said Ed was s**t at yoke and farmers you'd be the 1st to point out the error of their ways! In fact the poster even said it directly to Hixx in one post, if it had been Ed then Rian's face would have been taken for a s**t!There are people on here who post rubbish and offer their opinions when in relaity they shoudln't, but its a forum and it's something we gotta live with, so either join in with the fun or leave it. There's always been idiots on here (mallone, col austin etc) and there always will be. Sorry for the rant, it bugs me people just coming on here to slate us (idiots and non-idiots). if more of these people came back or actively joined in then maybe Sugden could become the place it once was? luke00 said: MAX Log in the Brits next year should settle that. Couldn't agree more, hopefully it will be in and then everyone will be silenced one way or another. | ||
