I think he'll choose the junior as he has a good chance of bringing home the gold. If you get to the point where you could also make top 3 in the worlds it is not unheard of for them to send 2 guys in the same category. For example I think Tom Martin and Steve Manuel will both be going as senior 93s. I understand. That does make sense. Thanks again mate! | ||

Member 4683, 257 posts SQ 200, BP 117.5, DL 270587.5 kgs @ 82.1kgs UnEq | 20-01-2014: Lots of stretching. Lots of talking - I've managed to persuade a 74kg lifter to powerlift, competitively! A very strong lad, considering his lack of 'proper' training and inexperience in the gym. Tonight he recorded a very easy 160kg squat, ass to grass. He's also claimed to have pulled 210kg and pressed 130kg (albeit "...with awful technique"). We are going to discuss things further, he may well be ready by March/April. A 500kg total in his first outing would be sensational. High Bar Squat: Technique work, up to 80kg Front Squats: 110kg x 5 reps (final 2 reps paused) Bench (paused): 100kg x 3reps x numerous sets | ||

Member 4683, 257 posts SQ 200, BP 117.5, DL 270587.5 kgs @ 82.1kgs UnEq | Low Bar Squat (beltless): 95kg x 3 reps x numerous sets Bench: 65kg x 3 reps x numerous sets SLDL: 200kg x 5 reps x 2 sets. notes: Squats were very fast, technique is getting better and better. SLDL's were surprisingly quite easy, especially the second set, strangely enough. | ||
