He passed out, Mark made a mistake, Joni is UNMISTAKEABLE but struggles with that s**t, it was just a thought anyway, no clear formula for lots of these things.
And by "weird things some people can do and others can't" is a defeatist attitude just accepting your fate, in the same vein as some fat kid saying "oh I'll always be a fat kid" or someone who has never squatted 100kg "I could never squat that" and not even trying.


haha, Misha has actually done that a bunch of times

and no, its not defeatist at all, I meant in the way that I know guys with a far better deadlift and grip than me that aren't as good as me at arm over arm, all the components seem to be there, but it just doesn't come together

With that particular cross, I think you would improve pretty fast with practice

First attempt, I didnt know how the f**k to tackle the thing

Practise is a big factor Martin, and technique, its not just strength in most cases.

hey thanks for the comments guys - being too kind!

Buzzing though, motivated to start building s**t up - one rep with the deadlift would have seen me on 7th place and 2nd reserve for finals - now if thats not a slap in the face wake up call to sort out that weakness i dont know what is!

Though its not like the will hasnt been there before either...

I am hatching a secret plan...

Plans are APPROVED!

Look at it this way, the guy that came 2nd got 1 rep on the deadlift Grin
