Tom's CNS is better than steroids Member 2886, 2973 posts SQ 190, BP 122.5, DL 210522.5 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | I don't mind the guys being giants, but it seems like in a few years it'll be as standardised as powerlifting. To me being the WSM should mean you can adapt to any weird and wacky event thrown at you. Not just solid gym lifts. Also Botswana flights are expensive. | ||

I think we can safely predict 5 out of the 6 events for the final. It makes it too easy for the full time guys just to hit a tiny pool of events and getting better and better. I think 6 events isn't enough for the final anyway tbh. | ||

I'm daft. Member 6148, 93 posts | JamieG said:I don't mind the guys being giants, but it seems like in a few years it'll be as standardised as powerlifting. I completely agree. To find out who's really strongest, technique shouldn't be a major factor. That's weightlifting. Strongman should be about pure, raw strength.To me being the WSM should mean you can adapt to any weird and wacky event thrown at you. Not just solid gym lifts. Also Botswana flights are expensive. It doesn't have to be running around fitness-style, like when they were running like 400 yards with fridges on their backs, but something like when they were lifting big ass stones overhead, which also happened during Kaz' and Jon Pall's era. | ||

It's a moonface era now. Member 5901, 956 posts | Is Edd really special, or he just found way to success and pushes the boundaries more than anyone. He kind of make me unlike strongman, whit his story. Pushing the limits, wining one WSM title and living a normal life after. Hes liked by the newbies fans who never followed strongman, but for old school guys he looks like a f**kin experiment. I started lifting because of Mariusz and Z. Most of new guys are s**t. | ||

I was watching 02 final earlier. Sport has evolved and athletes are stronger, but I preferred it then. | ||

You talk about ed pushing the limits and how you prefer mariusz but surely the reason he's pushing them is because mariusz ushered in a new era of the sport by pushing the limits in the early 2000s. I think ed and mariusz are similar in their approach to the sport and attitude in a lot of ways. | ||
