my take on 24hr weigh ins is if they are doing abroad then why shouldnt we, it is fair as everybody is in the same boat so it doesnt give any unfair advantage to anyone, and it means in 2012 im going to come in bigger and leaner and heavier Grin

As for the fed im more than happy to be a area rep and continue to hold the southern qualifier and think again Craig and terry should do the Englands and UKs again and move this game up a notch, a federation will be for the athletes and the money will go back to the athletes and to promote this sport.

I think those championing for a 24hr weigh in, would probably change their mind 2 years later, when the're are getting raped by the likes of Martin and other 115-118KG beasts, and not making national comps

I couldnt give a f**k either way TBH, but if BPC PL is anything to go by, the heavyiest competitors will be weighing at least 112-115 come comp time

This is very true.

The whole 105 scene will completely change. Dramatically

To be fair, there are plenty of inters/opens comps for the 115-118kg beasts.

it may turn out to be better for the sport though JC, even if it was worse for certain individuals. Depends which way you look at it. Plus, are there not some guys keeping their weight down close to 105 now, who, if a 24 hour weigh in was introduced would go up to 110-115kg until comp weigh in time?

if it raises the standard is that a bad thing?????
TBH 5 or 6 kg is f**k all really anyway, if your not as heavy then gain some size simples, this is a competitive sport after all.

Never said it was a bad thing...siad people will change their tune when they become also rans IMO

I think your being naive in thinking 6KG+ doesnt make quite a considerbale difference statically at least

It might not at 160KG, but if your 105, put on close to 10KG, its a 10% increase in BW

using diaretics on the day of weigh in....you think?

I lost 5KG in only 10hrs before the expo, water manipulation only

I know of a BPC guy who has made 110 from 120 (or was it 100 from 110)...either way, its doable

spot on

some of the current 105 guys are beasts, however when they are up against "naturally" 115-120 beasts, most just won't be able to compete

and so long as you are looking at 1 guy, going to 1 world comp, is that really the best thing for the sport?

go watch the ufc dude, MOST of the guys put on 20lbs between weigh in and fight, some as much as 35. And those guys are tested for diuretics and what not

I dont see the point in 24 hour weigh ins, its 105kg for a reason, if you do 24 hr weighins you might as well make it under 110kg, just because its done in other sports doesnt make it right
