WILLSAN | Fortissimus 2009 | 19-01-2013 @ 23:49 | |
Trump will get another four years Member 126, 16707 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 225495.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | After some talk about fortissimus the other day I watched my copy of the comp again today and it reminded me how great it was. Also showed me how much strongman has changed in 3 years. Marku gone, phister gone, murumets gone, ortmayer gone (?). Reminded me that poundstone used to be one of the best too. Gave z a run for his money in this comp. personally, I think its what comps should aim to be. A great mix of cardio and extreme strength. I wish they'd bring this back! It was a great comp. What happened to ortmayer and murumets? | ||

I suppose a price has to be paid for doing what it takes in a short time frame | ||
