 Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 19476 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | You looked much better in yourself tonight, again it is also age related, the older you get, the more these minor ailments tax you. You just have to shrug and soldier on and accept that your pace will slow more than it used to. But spring is on the way and your tubes are clearing, the sap will rise again soon enough | ||

All being well i will be fighting fit for my next foray onto the platform in a couple of weeks.  | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Monday 25th January Busy last few days with the Push and Pull to sort out. Lots of hard graft but going off how the day went and the feedback since it seems to have been worth it. A great set of lads lifting made it a brilliant event. Back to normal now... Snatch 50 x2 50 x2 50 x2 50 x2 It's cold, i've not done anything since last wednesday, my body doesnt want to play 50 x2 70 x1 80 x1 90 x1 95 x1 100 x1 90 x1 80 x1 Dead hang 70 x3 70 x3 Right wrist niggled throughout, suspect it's down to all the hand-balling of gear for the P&P the last few days. Snatch Pull 120 x3 120 x3 130 x3 130 x3 140 x2 140 x2 Press 65 x5 75 x5 75 x5 75 x5 Run out of interest and call it quits Northern Masters a week on Sunday. Can't really say I've had a build up but we'll go through the motions, could well get my 'arris handed to me this time round, but then 7 weeks to the British then it will be no distractions no excuses, time for some graft. | ||

Yeah, took friday off work to run around getting borrowed stuff and get the venue set up, all day Saturday at the comp, and then 4 hours yesterday emptying the venue and running round taking stuff back. Sort of takes its toll  It is a cracking little venue for a good down and dirty basic comp. Fred had mentioned that he would be open to offers if anyone wanted to use the venue for events in the future too. Would be ideal for an indoor strongman comp or such like. Yeah Northerns could be a bit of a write off but then full steam ahead for the British all being well | ||

What total will you need? Not sure what I will open at JC, probably put myself down at 100/130 and see how the warmup goes, with a view to putting them up. Not had much of a build up to this what with Christmas, a bout of illness, and the distractions of organising the Push and Pull, so not expecting too much to be honest. There will be another guy lifting that could well outlift me on the day in my current form, but we'll see, i'm always one for a bit of a battle Probably capable of 115/145 at the moment, if it all went right on the day, but without a solid bit of graft in the build up it's hard to have the consistency to guarantee it. This one is nothing more than a bit of a run out, British comes 7 weeks after this so should get some graft in for that and be something like all being well | ||

a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6955 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Monday 01 February 2010 My body has finally revolted againste the long and sh1tty winter and said a firm NO to anything like moving properly. Right wrist is nagging and mentally I'm somewhere between poo and really poo!! Did some snatches and some clean and jerks, supposedly up to my proposed openers for the comp on Saturday. Didnt go well so not worth noting. Squat knee sleeves 70 x5 120 x3 160 x3 170 x3 170 x3 170 x3 170 x3 180 x3 Incline smith machine - 4 x8 | ||

pink french superstar beard Member 26, 4030 posts SQ 190, BP 0, DL 205395.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | You'll do good mate! According to what one of the elders said, taking an enemy on the battlefield is like a hawk taking a bird. Even though it enters into the midst of a thousand of them, it gives no attention to any bird other than the one that it has first marked. | ||
