 Not in Loz's top 10 uk strongmen Member 144, 4421 posts SQ 320, BP 165, DL 350835.0 kgs @ 123kgs Eq | nick said:thanks to Ken for the pre farmer hold slap lol  My Pleasure!!! Some advice for future comps. On the axle for instance you MUST hold ther weight at lockout and wait for the down signal. Alot of reps were very much on the border of yay or nay. Also, is it the U105s in Dumbarton you're doing? Give me a PM if you want to come down and train with the kit at the gym with myself, Duncan and Naminder and then Andy Cairney too once he's back training. | ||

In the mean time the thread is here: http://www.riottraining.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2271&pos... looks like some good events, good but very heavy! i wont be able to pull the boyweight card on the farmer drag since everyone will be same weight as me so need to get some actual strength for it  is the car deadlift easier/harder than a 240 bar dl? natural rocks looks tough...not one the chriopracters would like to see lol | ||

Not in Loz's top 10 uk strongmen Member 144, 4421 posts SQ 320, BP 165, DL 350835.0 kgs @ 123kgs Eq | Not too sure mate as the feel of a car deadlift frame differs from each due to empty weight, distance from pivot etc. Some minor details may change due to not being able to get stuff sorted in time with Andy being injured, but the general structure will be the same. | ||

can front squat at least 10kg Member 650, 135 posts SQ 120, BP 80, DL 150350.0 kgs @ 92kgs UnEq | thought i may aswell do a comp write up too: first event axle c+p - was a bit nervous going into this but once i got going i felt ok i did 3 reps then started getting tired,after the 4th rep i went for another one and lost the bar forward when i went to press it tried it again and failed the press yet again.bit disappointed with this event tbh as i did 5 easy reps in training and was hoping for 7 on the day. second event farmers hold - did not know what to expect with this as i only managed to pick the farmers up a week before the comp lol so got a few warm ups and then i was up,picked them up and they felt like peanuts managed to hold on for 31 seconds,i was going to drop them at 20 but turned to the window and got a magical wink from the old security guy which gave me the strength to carry on pmsl. third event loading - back was sore going into this,went for the first stone and it went up fine ran to the second one and lapped it then tried to load it but it was not for going,i tried several times to pick it up but no luck. pissed off with this as i was hoping to load the stones and load at least one of the kegs but it did not go 2 plan. fourth event medley - was fairly confident going into this as i did ok in training with the yoke but i was up against baldy (duckwalk master),picked up the yoke and got going pretty fast ,ran back for the duckwalk and as i got moving i thought yes i am beating baldy and then out of nowhere the c**t sprinted past me and i then dropped it with shock lol once i picked it up again baldy then dropped his dwalk about a meter away from the finish line so i gave it my all to try and go into the lead but he then went over the finish line and beat me by 1 second or something .last event deadlift - tried several times to lift this and it would not budge i reckon some c**t bolted the bar to the ground  i was second last overall which is a bit s**t but the main reason i was doing this comp was for experience anyway,but overall it was a good comp and very well organised. cant wait for my next comp now. | ||

Big fan of TWI Member 761, 425 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 260645.0 kgs @ 99kgs UnEq | It's weird,but that Duncan reminds me so much of someone,the way he moves and lifts,he's like a taller,younger,better looking version of someone i can't quite place. | ||
