Wales' strongest man 2010 Member 1167, 42 posts SQ 360, BP 220, DL 360940.0 kgs @ 145kgs UnEq | I think a good day was had by all and thanks to rob bush and richie allan for putting on a superb show, by far the best run welsh comp Iv been involved in! 400k frame deadlift for reps - There was only 1 athlete to go after me and that was rich smith, I didnt want to kill myself but at the same time I had to make sure that rich would have to struggle to beat me on this event! I stopped at 9 reps and Im pretty sure I had atleast another 4-6 reps there if needed! arm over arm with a tractor - I wasnt looking forward to this event as its not a good event for me but I was happy enough with 3rd place! 120kg log for reps - Me and rich had to go head to head and I was pretty confident I could win this event, Ross had done 9 reps so I knew I had to beat that to start(I had done 10 reps a week before the show with no leg drive on a 120kg log), but I had a shock as soon as I cleaned the log I realised I had nothing but fresh air to focus on which seriously messed with my balance lol but I got the 10 reps I needed for the win! farmers(145kg) tyre flip(roughly 400kg) medlay - Iv been working on my speed and fitness latley and I flew through this pretty comfortbly, I have to check but Im sure I smashed 2nd place time for the win! 350kg yoke walk - I wasnt really looking forward to this event as I have a herniated disk in my spine and this event can cause me some serious issue`s! - Rich was on fire and he flew down the course with the yoke so I knew I would have to pull my finger out, nice and steady to start half way I just held my breath and went for it diving over the line, I think I nipped rich by just over a second! atlas stones 115,135,155,175,200kg - This event I knew would be bad for me and I did worse than I thought lol - Iv had a partial bicep tear in the run up to this show plus bicep tendon issue`s in both arms Iv not trained biceps for weeks plus I think Iv done stones twice in 12 weeks! - the first 3 stones went up fairly quick but there was just nothing left in me for the 4th stone - I think I got 5th place on the stones! | ||

 has a shit deadlift lockout Member 696, 379 posts SQ 240, BP 155, DL 265660.0 kgs @ 115kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 17.05.2010 @ 18:16 PM by ry87uk Being my first Open comp (3rd ever comp) I appraoched this event with plenty of nerves but with focus to mix up the middle order. 400kg Frame Deadlift - 0 reps Previously pulled 370 trap bar for 3 in training but this was too much for me !! Arm over arm - not too sure, over 10m I think First pull was suprisingly easy but we were allowed to start on our feet, the thick rope was a b**ch !! grip went pretty soon after I passed the mark that Rob Bush made, just did not want to come last in this event as well !! 120kg Log Press - 6 reps (3rd with a few others) +1 PB over the 5 I got last week in training, can't knock that. 140kg Farmers / Tyre medley One drop halfway on the farmers (which are normally comfortable) but after the rope, grip must have been shot! Tyre was roughtly 380kg, plenty of tread! comfortble to flip. Watched in awe of Dale who one montion the damn thing with ease !!! 350kg Yoke / 20m I was looking forward to this event, last week ran a 13.69sec. The frame was the widest i've ever seen, it did not sit right at all on my back and after trying arms around, arms under like squat and arms over, nothing worked and it kepy slipping! Very angry at this event, 13.6 would have placed me very high, but had to settle for dead last!!! Stones 115,135,155,175,200 First three flew up with ease, lapped the 175, was a few inches of loading it but sat back to much , dropped it and staggered back into the crowd! Richie Allen was still on the 155 at this point and I underestimated him, thinking he would not get the 4th up but fair play to him he wrestled the damn thing up !! Overall 6th, I was very pleased with my placing even though I 0repped and messed up my best event!! Great turn out of spectators and very enjoyable day!! | ||
