Member 1934, 14 posts SQ 230, BP 195, DL 280 705.0 kgs @ 114kgs Eq	Hi I am currently into powerlifting lifting in the yorkshire and north east division but would like to have a go at strong man comps, I am currently at a body weight of 115kg but alot of the comps listed seem to be 105kg or under, or am i just reading it wrong. If not and welcome i might give the first timers comp a go.

If I remember correctly in the articles section there is a list of gyms around the country. Have a look. Also Viking press is easier than a bar so 110 for you should be easy. My best oh is 105 and I've got 130/4 or maybe more on the one at the unit

Member 616, 8404 posts SQ 180, BP 130, DL 220 530.0 kgs @ 78.8kgs UnEq	Probably but it's brains and nicks call they might be happy Either way you'd need to practice at least once. Yoke and stone aren't things I'd want to go all out without a play first. Yoke cause I imagine it'll be horrible and stone cause you might rip something off

Member 1676, 304 posts SQ 260, BP 192.5, DL 363 815.5 kgs @ 120kgs UnEq	Hi is this comp still happening I heard your gym had closed down? I wouldnt mind entering if its still going ahead. I've been to Unit 20 last year to see my mate compete in a novice comp. I've been training once a month at OSG in Manchester (would train more but I live in Hull and thats the nearest place I know of!). Think ad do alright on everything apart from the stones that I still need more practice on.

You could pm them. Brian is more active on the site so probably easier to find As for hull, congrats. I'm a withernsea lad but now live in Edinburgh. Where coypu train rest of the month. Trained at bOdy world the last time I was back and went to the gym. Was alright. The owner used to powerlift

I used to go to fitness first on clough road tho before that. I'm tempted to do this comp definately need to do a first timers one first it might be a tad early for me tho. I'm trying to put some weight on.
