Excellent, which comp did you do in February? Are you up north or doon south??
Wise move concentrating on the one sport, and even wiser choosing weightlifting Grin

I'm doon south, train at Bethnal Green. Did a comp at Woking in Feb and then Giles' Bethnal Green meet in April. Didn't do southern masters as I had a powerlifting meet the week after and didn't do the Crystal Palace spring open as I had a strongwoman comp the week after that! So yes, finally gave into the inevitable, albeit with a heavy heart.

I would like to do strongwoman again next summer if possible. We shall see. Do you do strongman or do you just stick to weightlifting?

Sounds like you keep very busy!!

No strongman for me, I stick to what I know, although I know a good few of the strongman bunch on here and help out at their comps now and again.

I take it you will be doing the British Masters next year then? What weight are you etc? (rather a personal question for a lady I know Grin)

Yes I plan to do the British Masters. I'm in the 63kg class. My best lifts so far are 47/60, so lots of work to do to get to a decent level. It's such an absorbing/frustrating sport!

Good luck with that, they are decent lifts if you are fairly new to it and plenty of time to improve!! Grin

Had a week in Palma Nova and then a week off at home with the kids. Nice couple of weeks but glad to get back to training, cheers Jon..

Harry came and collected the rubber from outside Adders last week apparently, Alan was giving him some tips on using it to make a platform. Is CATTS soon to have a lifting platform? Could make my periodic visits even more worthwhile Grin
