 what is everyone's fran time? Member 3986, 10452 posts SQ 340, BP 200, DL 400940.0 kgs @ 129kgs Eq | KevC86 said: You could argue that, but you'd look a bit daft. Fe took 3 2nds in his WSM group (which included the now WSM), only 1 of those 2nds was an event you've listed. He barely missed out on the final in 2019 and podiumed at UKs in 2020 over 3 days of competition. To try and suggest Fe is anything other than a top class strongman would be bonkers. Yeah Fe is the opposite of a one trick pony, he has one glaring weakness, the rest of his game is well rounded. JT has a thing about Fe haha I think he always has | ||

JT has a thing about Fe haha I think he always has I was just hoping for a healthy debate, Thanks to Kev for pointing out Mark managed to Podium at UKs that well known strongman comp with strength in depth all the way down to third place.  Can you really be classed as a top strongman when a 59kg female weightlifter has a better Overhead? Way back in the mists of time the 3 ESM qualifiers started with 260 deadlift and 110 overhead if you no repped either of those that was you done. 20 years later the standard of lifter is far higher so I think 320 and 140 would be equivalent if the organisers organised qualifiers with requirements of being strong on deadlifts and overhead. | ||
