London's Strongest Novice 2014. Under 90kg category.

Weighed in at 61.9kg.

Results:
Event 1 Deadlift (60 seconds limit) - 160kg x13.
Event 2 Floor to overhead press (60 seconds limit) - 75kg x1.
Event 3 Atlas stone to shoulder (60 seconds limit) - 67.5kg x2.
Event 4 Arm over Arm Prowler pull (fastest time) - 50kg in 17 seconds.
Event 5 Crucifix hold (longest time) - 10kg for 35 seconds.

Overall finished in 15th place out of 17 competitors.

Super glad to manage completion of each event and hit personal bests! It was my first time ever attempting lifting an atlas stone. Tremendously pleased to achieve 2 reps.

Onwards to 70kg bodyweight and top 6 finish next time. Overambitious perhaps, yet I know what I have to do and I have the drive and commitment to make it happen.

60 second time limits on those events!

2.5xBW deadlift for 13 reps in 60 seconds was pretty impressive.

Might host another one in September. Was good to see you.

Good to see some squats making it into your programme. They will definitely help you put on that next 10kg - and will also make you look more like a boss for the girls on the beach at my wedding in FL.

Robster please, I am a boss with the ladies already. A further 10kg matched with my subtle charm will transmogrify me further in to a Demi-God. Happy
