a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250 637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq	Monday 3 August 2009 Still not 100%, plus having serious problems with the left shoulder. It was a niggle before holiday, but 2 1/2 weeks of doing nothing seems to have seen it sieze up completely!!!!! Booked in for physio on Friday. Bar Work Loads of empty bar work, just dusting off the cobwebs and trying to loosen off the shoulder. Lots of pain, not much progress!!!! A few squats Off home

It certainly generated a bit of interest, with most people having a play with it. I will predict that Alan will have it overhead within two weeks. He was itching to have a go

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250 637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq	Friday 21 August 2009 Early finish from work and stop off at home for the barbie stuff and and early start at Adders. Not really in the mood today... Deadlift double overhand / hook grip 70 x5 70 x5 120 x3 160 x2 200 x2 220 x1 thumbs say not tonday sonny 200 x3 straps from here 200 x3 200 x3 180 x5 180 x5 Time for food!!! BBQ seemed to go down really well, every scrap of food was eaten anyway, so must've been ok. Alan then had us all doing some old style odd-lifts, excellent laugh and some good feats of strength and adaptability!!! Star of the show was Ian Mac who showed us all how it should be done. Felix was down and joined in, good man!! One of the challenges was max reps with the 63k log in 90 seconds, I managed 19 and ran out of time and breath, but pretty pleased with it

And a valient attempt on the log, I suspect that without additional weight, that will play a substantial part in my life in the coming months. If you think you have seen sweating, think again.
