I used to train with Paul Porteous who won Scotlands Strongest Man in 2004 or 2005 (he died in 2005) and he could only bench about 160kg, great squatter and deadlifter

He was a great bloke. He was squatting about 260kg for 6 raw and around 320-340 in briefs. Deadlifted around 340 in the gym.

He chased his dream of Scotlands Strongest man for years and if a "s**t bench" is anything to go by that title will be yours one day sir

Paul was a nice bloke he came up to the Shetland strongman comp, as ge knew Stuart Wadley from uni I think. Strong as a Ox and gave solid advice.

good that u got a pb on bench some bounce tho?cannie call the 140 a pb tho just cos u done it proper makes it sound as the 162.5 was a cheat then when u do the 162.5 rite is that a pb to??????two pb one weight ????? would make your page sound a lot better

i can dead 250 if i then do 25 reps at 220 imo thats not a pb if cant do the 260 if i am wrong tell me cos in that case ive been cheating myself all year in fact i would have got two pbs today alone?

its like at the Scottish who gives a f**k if i could do 100 reps wi 270 if i cant do 280 dead once

i know that you have made great progress this year and you have done scotland proud beating some very good boys in the process so please dont take it as an insult i know that both you and andy were pissed off when i said that u were not the best in scotland but come on ken mike daily has just done 310 dead at 101kg and 51 years old jnr the other week done a 140 log ifsa and he came last at the ssm 105 both of would be hard for u.i do know that you are a lot better than me and a lot pf others but there is a lot of arse lickin going on on your page at atm?you will be ssm im sure and i for one will cheer u all the way.
i will get slagged to bits for my post but if there is one thing about me i have got balls i have put 50kg on my squat this year 40kg on my dead and f**k knows on ma press nae c**t gives a f**k cos im s**t and im not trying to make myself look better by putting s**t loads of pbs on ma post

I may be at risk of licking kens arse here but.. Roll-Eyes

You can call anything you want a PB as long as it was better than you previous best at any given lift. You can get 5 rep PB's, 10 rep PB's, touch and go PB's.. Who cares what it is? If you are doing better than you done the last time at something then you are getting stronger.

f**k ME!!!!

It getting to the point where Ken can't post anything without getting reipped to shreds by certain folk. Do you know what a rep PB or a PAUSE is on the bench press. It's not the same as a 1RM.

And it doesn't matter what anyone can do on any one lift, it' the full package that counts. If you were there on sunday you would have seen how consistant Ken was.

Ironic that you say you will cheer him on, yet slag him here for getting a PB, it was the same last week where you tried to nitpick at his attempt of a FOUR HUNDRED pound oh. Not many in Scotland could do that I don't reckon (regardless of age, BW, skin colour, hair length or anything else that could be used to compare people.

petty.

Also, are you jealous of the support Ken gets. If he does s**t noone says " oh it's alright," he has earned it. Look at his training recently, he has learned what will help him and apllied it, maybe you should do the same and you can get some "arse lickin" in your journal too.

Training PBs mean nothing more than indicators, don't stress man, in a few months we shall see how good Kenny boy is.

I don't understand why he gets all this s**t, he's a nice guy in reality

(Even though his ego is mssive with all his PBs)

far to much b**ching on this forum u guys r worse than women,we should all be encouraging each other and praising people when they do well.kens only 22 and no where near his peak hes only going to get better and better,and a 310 dead at 22 is pretty fukin impressive to me

Wow

First off, s**t attitude which reeks of jealousy

Secondly, one person being good at one lift doesn't make them a better strongman than ken

Ken ticks alot of boxes now, as is reflected in his recent performance at winter giants, being a good log presser or a good deadlifter doesn't make you a good strongman

I bench,dead and BTN jerk more than Ken. Am I a better strongman than him? Have a f**king word with yourself.

Everyone I talked to at the comp commented how impressive Kens performance was.

Ken looked a different guy to the one I watched at Bodypower so give the guy some f**king credit.

Think I strict press more than him too and I'm better looking.

Seriously just read your post over again, you come across like a bitter child.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but no one can deny the progress Ken has made. As Tony says he looks like a different man to the one at Bodypower.

Even if you don't agree with postings of videos or pb bragging, Ken has proved his worth and dedication.

Well done to Ken. (That isn't arse licking, as I intend to beat him again in March!!!!!Hehehe, bring it on wookie!)
