ayebygum | Strongman critique by the athletes | 28-01-2010 @ 18:35 | |
The Giant of the Winter Giants Member 155, 132 posts | Ok guy's going back to training days by athletes. Really trying to get something going with this.... any feedback would be appreciated. If we could get Terry, Felix, Loz & Jimmy together with the usual strongman set up, stones, farmers, log, deadlift etc. Would anyone pay to receive critique from them on the events over 1-2 hours? if so what would you pay? You would perform the events and they would give you tips....? feel free to suggest your perfect scenario. | ||

Unfortunately money is what makes the world go round and if somebody has something you want and they want to charge for it so be it and vise versa. | ||

Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | I don't know if I'm in favour of this, would this stop them helping someone out in the gym because they are getting paid to do the same thing at another time? | ||
