still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts	Post Edited: 06.05.2008 @ 09:34 AM by little_a It's been mentioned that we should have a mini runout at Adlington round about the mid May time of year, this time with the event being a start from racks and ending up locked out, under control OH. Press, push press, push jerk, split jerk, squat jerk, in front, behind neck what ever you fancy. We dont care as long it's serious lifting and serious drinking afterwards. Nothing too serious unless it's your lift next. Sat 17th May anyone??? Suggestions??? Alans up for sorting the running again. I dont think anyone would object if Mr Flett was up for MCing the procedings. I'll update this start post with names as they get posted Names so far...

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 255, BP 167.5, DL 330 752.5 kgs @ 103kgs Eq	TBH I'm finding it hard to get excited about this. What's happened to the clean and the deadlift? I thought the format worked really well last time? Also I'm competing the week after and all focus will be on the show. Looks like I'm going to have to take a raincheck on this one.

Old Age Presser Member 75, 8070 posts SQ 0, BP 200, DL 200 400.0 kgs @ 105kgs Eq	I'm up for helping. Imo it would work better with a deadlift, esp if Mr Felix is attending again and some others could be invited along to see who's the best British deadlifter on the same bar on the same day. Get Bolton, Hollands, Thompson and a couple of others along and that WOULD be a day to live long in the memory.

Well, if Mark is up for it and we agree to do deadlifts as well, I could certainly contact Andy B and a few others and ask them along, subject to Alan (it's his club after all!) being happy with the concept. Trouble is Andy's got everything to lose and nothing to gain from doing it, so I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if he said yes. But we can but ask if the portents seem favourable. Btw someone on PLUK misread one of my posts and Andy Bolton now thinks I'm Mark Felix's deadlifting coach! Lol oh lol! I can't even coach Moz, and he's a f**king undertaker.

still a devious weightlifting bastard Member 43, 14379 posts	Agree completely with the comments Martin. The last format worked exceptionally well last time, and trust me, I expect it will again. We are trying to arrange organisation of something along the same lines for July time, and on a bigger scale. Introductions between the potential organiser and Rob were made at the last comp, and any progress in this area will be routed through SugdenBarbell for general info. Appreciate it may not suit time wise Jon, but a 2 lift affair like last time takes a while to get through, a lot of organising, and a lot of recovery for the lifter. Lives are busy and calenders are full, so none of us could do that very often. Personally, I'm treating this as a workout with a bit of added atmosphere. Doing the one lift gives a chance to have a go without being overly taxing. We seem to have a lot more people doing OH stuff than a couple of years ago. It's there for someone who can make use of it and fit it in

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 19144 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300 827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq	I'll help with the loading. I can only just get my hands over my fat head let alone with a bar in them. And I'll see that Andy gets home when he's pissed
