BBQ seemed to go down really well, every scrap of food was eaten anyway, so must've been ok.

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 Grin


Excellent nosebag old chap, enjoyed it very much. 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.


I thought i heard you whispering to Alan that you rather liked the log. Will be interesting to see what you get up to with it!!!! No falling over mind, so nothing too complicated!! Wink

It was a crackin day. good food, good company and a good laugh thanks to Al's 'odd-lifts'

He showed us 3 and there are another 39 up his sleeve for future bbq nights Grin!!

Tony - didnt get me on film, although i did fail the 2 dumbell overhead lift, where you put one dumbell overhead then with it in place bend down and pick up a second dumbell and put overhead (only failed 'cos i didnt have my lifting shoes on... honest!!) Sounds easier than it actually is. Two dumbells, a 75lb and a 55lb was the record set by Ian Mac. Alan in his day did it with a 120lb and an 80lb!!

Current record for empty log reps in 90 seconds is 20 set by Felix (in a minute), my 19 was sooooo close but ran out of time on number 20 Unhappy

Adlington Max Log record is with Andy at 113k, but i'm sure that will go up soon!

Liking may be overstating it by a mile or so, but if I rep with it, it will improve general conditioning and won't do my bench a bit of harm. Or so the theory goes

Plus the palms-facing position of the hands isn't as harsh on the shoulders as pressing with a bar is.

Was each rep cleaned Jeff??

I was blowing a bit at the end for sure. Reckon with a couple of goes I could get it up to 25+, purely for the cardio obviously. Might start upping the weight a bit then and forget the reppage!!!
