not stating facts. Member 3100, 502 posts | Someone asked Terry hollands on facebook which record would go 1st 250 log or 500 dead.. hollands said 250 log as z has doubled a 240 log in training. | ||

Wee Donnie Member 5605, 450 posts | first time Z did 220 log in training was in 2006 for sure no surprise if 240x2 is done | ||

understanding of the sport, little he has.

Saying z told him n he believes him. Is it really that hard to believe? On all of Z's max log attempts that I can currently recall, the press was very easy for him and the only thing that gave him any difficulty was balance / stabilisation (let not even mention how easily the cleans the damn things I can quite easily believe that he's hit a 240kg double in his own gym with his own log to be honest | ||

At Europes strongest Man where he pressed the 221kg he himself said in the Interview afterwards he never has done the 221kg in Training as he does more Repitions. So if Terry says that and Zydrunas himself than i absolutely believe that. I thought some random Person claimed that.Thats why i was skeptical. Its also pretty amazing that he can get that fast in shape.How can you get that strong in such a short time? | ||

Member 5171, 1049 posts SQ 217.5, BP 160, DL 233.5611.0 kgs @ 83kgs UnEq | Not that i don't believe he has done 220kg 9 years ago.But i was a bit confused that he said that this 221kg world record was the highest weight he ever lifted on log.Even in training he didn't lift more as he goes more for reps. But not that it is important i was just confused. I am so excited about next weeks competition | ||

knock knock !! who's there ??

By far the biggest collection of lifts we've ever seen .. However Some of the predictions I've seen have been obsurd IMO ! If an athlete hits the weight he's been doing in training then that's an amazing achievement because he can have as many tries as he wants and there's no pressure and you'll only ever see the video of that perfect attempt . It's his log in his gym with his people and no referree .. Most things I've read seem a bit unrealistic . Like Benni hitting 200kg which for him MUST be a 20-30kg Personal Best yet people are saying he'll hit 220kg on the day and other such examples .. I think they'll be 5+ guys going 200kg plus which is incredible !! I hope Hixxy & Eddie both share the top 2 spots !! It will be a great comp for sure ! Believe it or not some guys lift better under pressure when it really matters Well You Sure Shown Me JT ! | ||

As I said SOME guys lift better under pressure and some who are maybe not up for the fight lift far less then they can in training. Fortunately for me I always did my best lifts in comps | ||

Fortunately for me I always did my best lifts in comps Agreed but you dismissed my statement as if Smallsy had written it :-) When it's very technical like a log lift it falls into a similar game as Olympic lifting .. It's tougher under the competition environment and very easy to make a slight technical error . All I was saying is the predictions wouldn't be reached and I was correct ! I'm sorry I was right mate - I hate it when that happens . I'm a youtube warrior I except that and you WAS better in comp than training .. I also except that . | ||
