 likes supermans house Member 1421, 607 posts SQ 220, BP 160, DL 290670.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | I think his model consistency has paid off, as an example in the past 3 to 4 weeks he has hit the following in comp: Worlds 312.5-230-285 - 827.5kg Londons @ 85kg 320-240-295 - 855kg South Mids 320-237.5-300 - 857.5kg | ||

Yes Dean's wilks score is higher - Clive Henry and Tony Steven have also achieved slightly higher wilks | ||

This weightclass is "something else" in drug tested /drug free ethos lifting at the moment.WELL DONE ROB.Congratulations to the South Midlands organising team (Monica,John,Dean and others on what has been another cracking Divisional Championships).

Am I elite? Member 1674, 306 posts SQ 350, BP 250, DL 305905.0 kgs @ 93kgs Eq | Thanks for all the comments everyone! Especially from Nick and Paul Rees, Nick got me started lifting a few years ago and Paul put on the first comp I ever lifted in, lifted in a pair of cross trainers, rugby shorts and a sleeveless tshirt (Classy). It means a lot to me that the two of them still follow my progress. Was a great comp ran really smoothly, after lifting last week I was still feeling little tired on the squat and it showed when I started shaking and swaying backwards and forwards on the ascent! The bench was rushed in the warmup room so did 120 put the shirt on did a quick 200, then 215 both were rubbish! But on the platform they couldn't have gone better, maybe a few more kgs on the bench next time. Deadlift went well also, just need to sort my baby hands out and I might be able to finish some bigger weights! All in all I have had a great years lifting and this was the icing on the cake for me, I will be extremely proud to have my name in the record books forever, something to show the kids one day when i'm old and fat! Looking to next year I have set myself the goal of 901kg total @ 83. I am lucky to have guys behind me such as Tom Martin and hopefully Macca if he comes over to compete, their great achievements this year are a constant reminder that you must always improve or somebody will come along and take it from you otherwise! Thanks again (I will try and make a video but I am simple with computers, it took me 3 goes to log in!) | ||

 some nice relaxing jazz. Member 77, 12599 posts SQ 265, BP 165, DL 280710.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | Yep the 82s have some standout lifters in both tested feds in both 'codes'. You still have the gbpf unequipped record don't you with 660 right? | ||

And a 300 deadlift too, looks like I won't be able to rely as heavily on my deadlift as I was planning on doing! Once again, awesome job yesterday! | ||
