Did you measure the deadlift height Joni?

Saw the vid in Marsdens journal and it looks higher. Not sure if thats just cause he's short and its a bad camera angle though.

yeah it was measured, a little bit less than half an inch higher than normal dead, so obviously f**kloads easier for me Happy

the comp set up will have the wooden block used at SSM2, that should make it flat bang 9 inch, normal height.

But with wheels it is easier because of the bend.

I need some f**king "easier" the way things are...

If i have a blinding day of deadlifting at the comp I am looking at the last place Happy But maybe shared instead of on my own if i only get the opener, so it is a big difference in points.

f**k it, onwards!

Decent deads mate, is that the set up at the North BSM then? In my head it was just regular deads. Confused


Ben, its 9", olympic bar, so is the same as a regular dead

Mine and others experiences are its a tad easier on the big wheel set up

Joni - decent session with some good graft IMO. Plan must be to nail 2x120 singles at some point...f**k PB doubles and that malarky

yeah training is a bit weird at the moment Happy

i would still like to have a few specialised graft sessions on different events, and then start moving more towards one max set and out way of training again.

And in other news: just when i was thinking what kind of comps i should do this year after the both qualifiers are nailed, seems like this year they will be organising a finnish 105 strongman cup with 3 comps, points tallied up together to determine who get to the finals.

That would be f**king awesome if that happened, i would definitely nail them all.

The cup question mark wasn't really a question.

Dude IMHO I think your doing great from the first time I met you you have come a long way and your still a determined guy. If you going to nail a few more specific type events it will only get and give you more experience for the scalp taking in the 3 Finnish 105 comps.
