I hope so,. tbh I didnt think he was taking it seriously enough with his acting commitments and wrote him off as top 4...

However, with his act together I'd back him slightly over Shaw.

Of course I want Ed to win though.Going to be quiet a tough year. I would also guess Shaw has doubled his efforts. This should, in theory be a year to remember full of records and no doubt injuries to...

Quiet excited about it really.

Good deads from Thor.

He has the potential to win it for sure.

I do wonder how much the climate will take out of the athletes though.

Tom Martin has just deadlifted 420.

Not really relevant to WSM, but it's 420!!!

If Thor can stay close to Shaw/Ed on squats and deads, you'd have to say it's his for the taking?

That stupid squat setup will prob take more victims this year. How about instead of metal stands they squatted to horizontal elastic bands? Reduced risk of injury and also an incentive to squat deeper as you would get more rebound from the bands. I think it's a winner!

Are they not squatting to pads this year? Noticed a lot using like foam pads as markers to squat to and saying they're using the set up for worlds

Should squat to electric shockers. If they don't spring up screaming then they ain't deep enough.

When was the last time he claimed "drug free"?

Probably never since he came away from the IPF.

Come on man. He hasn't claimed it in ages. Plus why should he shout from the rooftops?

He seems a quite humble fella, that just lets his lifting do the talking.

I like Tom. He's a great lifter and I hope he keeps improving.
