 vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought... Member 340, 13300 posts SQ 315, BP 190, DL 350855.0 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Cheers guys. Tony, I would say yes - lift with them. The regional comp will be really good, I think its moving venue ths year though which is a shame as I love the atmosphere at a packed out Bentham Village Hall. Every fed' has political issues which I can't be bothered to get into aside from saying that the BDFPA nees to start giving a bit more back to athletes now it has 500+ members and needs to start making the comps more spectator friendly. But if you are lifting unequipped and drug-free I still think it is the best place to lift at the moment (hopefully GBPF will drive things further forward and create healthy competition???). | ||

The registration and weigh in was a smooth process and lifting started about 9am and ran pretty well. I lifted around 1pm after watching my pal Colin Harrison (Spam on here) have a great comp and pull 275kg at well under 90kg. I had put in an opener of 280kg but there wasn't anyone really near me in the 100s so based on warm-ups dropped it to 270kg, I was really struggling to get going, felt flat with no buzz at all. 270kg went up okay but form was like a stiff leg dead apparently and it felt heavy! went to 285kg which I was confident would win me the class and set me up for a PB attempt on my 3rd lift. 285kg went up but it was a grind! 292.5kg for a PB came a few inches off the floor but wasn't there today. I had hoped for a lot more - a PB then a World record attempt at 303kg but that now looks a long way off. I obviously need a longer build-up with some spefcific assistance work etc to progress rather than a bit of deadlifting for 3 or 4 weeks! So overall I have come away as a World Champ of some description but also dissapointed and a bit low. I certainly wont be doing this type of comp again, sitting around all day to do a lift that would give as much satisfaction in the gym to get a trophy the same as the guy who came 6th in the class and paying £50 for the priveledge (plus £50 for a team tracksuit that didn't arrive in time for the comp!). Colin came 3rd overall and got nothing for that either. Well done Ben. completelty agree with you | ||
