Far too much to even think about!! Cost about £500 just to compete in the Natty u90 finals! Then theres all the equipment I've bought this year which is probably in excess of £2k. The protein and supps. etc. etc. A lot of money for a 'hobby'! But I love it so don't careGrin

I know how many miles it was to each place and the MPG of my car. I need to find a cheaper hobby lol, it works out at about £13 per kg on my PL total in the last year. More expensive than steak !

But compare it to something like golf. Around £1k for a decent set of golf clubs anywhere from £1.5k per year for club membership, then theres thetupid clothes. and what do you get... you look like Rupert the bear.
Lift stuff, eat stuff.......look reem!

You could have saved atleast £5 buying cheaper shoe laces!! Lol

For a hobby you enjoy, thats not that bad considering I know ppl that do kayaking and spent about 2k just getting the kit to do it seriously.

If I could even be arsed to work it out, which I can't, I certainly wouldn't be telling the Missus.
She's still bitter about us breaking down in Birmingham for the British Single Lifts earlier this year, that weekend alone cost us around £1400...

It's cheaper than sitting on my couch all day drinking and smoking though.

With petrol,gym subs,equipment,creatine, comp entry fees and energy drinks I'd say it would be around 2k.
