Englands 105's Strongest Man 2013

Robbo said:Paul weighed in naked at 105 apparently. He got out of his car in a dressing gown looking like death and said after he really struggled to make weight. He had 4 hours to replenish and get himself right again. There is no guarantee he weighed 110 but he will have been around that by the time he started. None of this matters really the point i was making was this...

Simon has alway been a huge fan of the uks, Paul has always been a good mate/training buddy i believe, the uks had a same day weigh in, so would Simon be bothered that when he won he weighed over which he obviously did! I did! A few did! What I'm saying is that I very much doubt that he cared even though Simon had just recently said 'it should be called a u110 competition.' What I'm saying is that even when the rules are in place for a same day weigh in, even his close mate is over at his favorite 105 comp!! There's no way of stopping being over even when he gets what he wants from a comp!!! So there is absolutely no reason to be requesting a new u105 league on here IMO. Especially on a competition thread!

I just think what JC said is correct. Apart from the worlds being f**kin run worse than a pub garden comp on red hot tarmac 2012 was a good year for strongman (105). As long as all promotors stick to what they have done and continue putting on quality shows I'm sure 2013 will be brilliant also.
I just wished someone would put on a world championship competition worthy of all top athletes going... Pretty much like the opens have but even with less media coverage and funding someone could easily put a great worlds on. CLEGGY IS THE MAN IMO lol

Why not do it carry and drag style. Pick up/carry three blocks (or kegs/sandbags) 20m then sled drag 20m back. You don't need to have guys loading objects into anything, just carrying across the line. This would take little to no resetting (obviously start from op ends for the next go). Is just my opinion but is lacking any kind of endurance/fitness event and after doing log and fingers id imagine even the strongest pressers will be hitting tricep death on the block press.

Thanks, so will stick with block press snooker

Not arsed myself weight is irrelevant IMO
