If I'd had a good winters training I'd be confident especially with those events but I haven't so we'll just have to see. BSM is a great title...but like you say, WSM is the big one, and when you're at the top of your game, you have the ability to win WSM (as I think you showed 2012/13 before injury shafted you) WSM this year I'd love to see you, Ed, Felix...and most of all my buddy Hixx make the final....it'd be amazing PS, does anyone know what is the highest no. of competitors one country has had in the final? | ||

America have had 5 in the time ive been competing. We joked it was like the ryder cup 5 Europeans and 5 Americans Youre right winning bsm is nice and obviously would love to win again but ive gotta be realistic about things and just see how training goes. When in shape only iffy event would be log but thats iffy against the like of z, radz, lalas etc. I hit 5 with 157 at wsm in 2011 so if I can get back there ill be fine | ||

I think he has a chance to win conans, dumbbell, medley and loading. Plus if it's his thin log he might not be out of top 3 in any event. Sadler is very good a strength/speed endurance. | ||

Was...he hasn't done a thing for 18 months (and he wasnt very active before that) Maybe I'm underrating the guy...I just think its going to be hard to come straight back in at the level he was at, at his best (which he hasnt been for at least 2 years due to injuries etc) Surely the farmers will have to be 160-70 if only 20m? His grip is one of his weaknesses | ||

His grip is one of his weaknesses If i remember correctly he used to take months off at a time, get small then train/bulk up for comps and get back to his best so i wouldnt put it past him coming in immense shape. I doubt they be that heavy as part of a medley, probably 130-140k / done as a speed event. | ||

Member 2775, 6927 posts | JC said: 130-40??? Thats speed weight as part of a medley for 105 guys!!! Can't see it being heavier than 150. The duck walk will take it out of the grip so 160-170 would be really tough. | ||

 Trump will get another four years Member 126, 16707 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 225495.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | too many static rep events. given that we have some world class log pressers there should be max log. | ||
