Loads will definitely lift it...Z, Radz, Lalas, Savatinov...I also reckon Oberst definitely will..pic is of a 210kg log. If Radz comes in at 150kg I think he can win this event. Radz is far from Zs max log believe me .Everybody is . I don't understand why so many people don't realize how strong Z is . I saw recent pic of Z and he looks above 180 kg . | ||

End of an era. Member 4646, 1964 posts | Mainly due to that year Jenkins beat him on the log at the Arnold's...he suddenly became human in pressing. Then Radz log performance last year was amazing...was stupidly close to 3 reps and basically did 4 reps overhead. If he comes in heavier and stronger I think he has a chance. Z will obviously be favourite though with his log performances all last year. | ||

After some guys broked the 200 kg barier at the log many people started talking that Z will be beaten soon. Actually Radz and Lalas hit the wall I don't see them improving .But Z is another story . He just never been pushed to the limit . | ||

Got to agree, the idea of a 100% fit Z getting beaten in the log press just isn't something I can wrap my head around. I've had the privilege of being there to see two of his world record log presses and they look entirely comfortable, i'd love to see someone else put up 220+ just to see what Z could really do if he needed to. | ||

Really????? 2 of his most recent WRs in the log he was VERY lucky to be given (WSM 2012 & Savickas Classic 2013) | ||

AKA the great reset Member 4056, 5206 posts | Savolainen87 said: WSM 2012 looked easier to me , just lost the balance . He always seems to lose bit of balance on max log attempts, even though the weight doesn't look that difficult for him! | ||

 Man up and have a fuckin coffee Member 2086, 9717 posts SQ 340, BP 252.5, DL 300892.5 kgs @ 158kgs UnEq | I cant wait to see that Cyr dumbell event , will be amazing to see someone treble it amazing to think 10 yrs ago they were using a 78kg bell and people failing it!!! Mike Radz and Z will all do well on that event , Burkes timber run will be amazing to watch and Z repping the Log will be an enormous feat of strength ,will look forward to see the Bulgarian on the two pressing events and hes cleaned a 230 log so he will be pretty good for at least a rep or maybe two. Shaw and Z battling it out on the Deadlift will be a real battle of egos. | ||
