 u75kg World Powerlifting Champion. Member 601, 3067 posts SQ 222.5, BP 177.5, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq | Tony said: Harder than snooker? exactly! take football, snooker, darts etc... a football player can do his club training, then practice free kicks for aslong as he wishes. eventually you are gonna be s**t hot at free kicks. Beckham did it for hrs on end everyday! ronnie o sullivan has apparently practiced for up to 8hrs per day..darts players are in there kitchen gettin pissed playing darts all nite. how long can a weightlifter/powerlifter/strongman seriously train and how often? f**king golf???? | ||

nothing to hide, please follow my life on webcam Member 255, 3732 posts | aaron_lohan said: Golf is technically demanding, most sports are but it doesn't mean you can't do it. You can learn to play golf just about everywhere in the ountry (in GB you could argue that money is a barrier for some people). There are probably only a couple of dozen place in the whole of GB (maybe even less) where you properly learn to do weightlifting. Most people, even if they wanted to, would not have the opportunity to learn to weightlift. | ||

Hard to say really; you can mis**t a golf ball much further off line than a snooker ball, plus a golf club head is travelling at over 100mph as it strikes the ball so it is harder to be precise also a golf hole is much bigger than a snooker table (up to 500 yards+) whilst the hole is nearly as big as a pocket, also conditions are more variable i.e. weather, ground etc | ||

 Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22043 posts | aaron_lohan said: Why can't everyone do weightlifting? Weightlifters have excellent flexibility. If you wanted to convert from, say, strongman to weightlifting you'd have to 'undo' years of 'tightening'. I'm way too 'tight' to even perform approximate versions of the full Olympic movements. | ||

How many experienced weightlifters who actually know what they are doing do you know that are out there coaching and how many gyms will even allow you to do the lifts | ||
