It's all well an good doing event training at ya gym indoors with you own equipment on solid ground etc etc , BUT when ya gotta do it at silly o'clock outside in daft weather with equipment ya sore that morning different story !!

not to mention the flight/coach/hotel etc normally the day/night before comp !!
a few things to take into mind when ya next watching from ya sofa shouting your wise words of training/event wisdom lol !!

Pete mate .... Few things you`ve gotta understand about this Strongman lark ..

I was using my own log, I use it every week. What i`ve found through competing is that variations in equipment used on the day alone can cost you up to 10% in your performance .. NOT taking into consideration all the other distractions like Weather/Lack of Warm-up/Fatigue from previous events ..

I think people get confused with YouTube videos and the like .. I keep mine for a video journal on myself and it can only really be used to compare to "ME" and my progression..

BUT this is why Strongman is such a great sport . You can`t look at results and say "OH i`d of done this or placed here" You just can`t do it .. You don`t know what all the finer points were like on the day ...

Cracking coverage! Commentary, coverage of events, interviews etc were great.

Thought Loz was da man, most impressed by his stones, been a not so good event for him in the past, but a solid end to a solid day to nail them all!

both comps where very good and where a very high standard all the English lads did very well.

I think Poundstone was surprised by Loz but fair play he couldnt stop talkin him up. role on the heats and the final
