I always think of sigmarsson taking drugs to the next level. How true that is I don't know. His documentary maybe played a part in my thinking

He looks weaker and in this starter field he doesn't look to good on the static events.
I mean come on lodz is easily hitting 5's with 320kg and there are many more.
I don't even want to mention eddie who squats 340 for 10 or so without even a belt and wraps.


This is such a good year for Loz and Terry.

I think Sigmarson was likely using more drugs than Kaz, simply by looking at how bloated he became as he got bigger. It pales into comparison with the drugs used today. The records that have fallen have done so because of two types of gear-supportive and the other type-not because of any better class of athletes.

I hope Hall can win WSM this year, it would be nice to have a new name on't trophy. It will be a huge task though, even though he says on his Facebook that he feels fit at 29 1/2 stone.

Shaw is such a formidable opponent too, and you just know he will be 100% ready to go.

I think Ed will be 4th, Caron will kick on to 3rd, Thor 2nd and Shaw to win.

You think Caron will beat hall? Quite shocked at that.
My guess for top 5:

Shaw
Hall
Loz
Thor
Terry/arsjo

Probably not tbh, but it's a bit different to the usual Shaw/Thor/hall combos!

Ed just posted a kettlebell throw video and looks so slow. Can't see him doing well in that event

Slow and not the best height.
Doesn't look too good

Yep he needs a major improvement.

Nobody gets technically better or stronger in the last cpl of weeks, during a time when training is being relaxed. He could massively improve his conditioning in two weeks, seriously improve it, and drop some bodyfat.

I think Caron or Arsjo are most likely to break up the expected top 3.

That being said I think it's very unlikely. Can't see either being able to beat any single one of them on more than two events.

With practice you can make big improvements in two weeks.

That being said part of the problem is that he looked knackered just walking to fetch the implements. So I agree he needs to get fitter and fast.

It just looked like more of a lack of adrenaline rather than fitness. He will be fine come comp time in terms of his performance.

His problem with that event is...Shaw, Thor and Terry all have better levers for throwing and are probably naturally more explosive than him due to doing explosive sports on land prior to strongman.

AKA the great reset

I think Terry will have a big Final. If he gets his deadlift back up to 450 and does ok on the pressing event, he has a good chance at the podium again.

It is hard to look past Shaw. People accuse him of pussying out of the deadlift championships, but I don't see it that way.

He came second to Ed at the Arnold's, I hardly find it likely, he was afraid to lose again.

Shaw is only worried about the Arnold's and WSM. He wants the titles. He knows he will most likely never catch Z's Arnold record of 7, but he has a big shot of passing 5 titles of WSM.
