 Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Bench If there was a fault in the warm up room it was here. The floor by the bench was very slippy, there was no leg drive for the warm ups First attempt - 185 passed - Nice enough but the left hand lagged a touch. I didn't feel it but Joe noticed. So right hand in one fingers width from now on to compensate. Second attempt - 190 fail - Nicely down and fast off the chest, but from halfway it started to go back rather than up. Frustrating Third attempt - 190 fail - an exact replica of the second attempt - very annoying but no-one to blame bar myself. I opened in the old shirt and stayed with it for the rest of the lifts. I wouldn't have got a single one with the new shirt. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Deadlift Warmed to 240 in the back and opened on 250. The point to remember here is that once again I have no opponent, so one passed lift gets me the title for another year. First attempt - 250 - pass. Easy enough and I am champion once more. Second attempt - 260 - fail. This was harder than it should have been, I stalled on the way up. The back was feeling it form the 300 squat earlier. Had I needed it, I am fairly sure that I could have knuckled down and forced it up, but I don't need to. I have won, I am not on for any sort of pb or record, so I simply put it down. Third attempt - there wasn't one. The back was seriously feeling it now. So I passed. | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17896 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Conclusion First and foremost, I had fun. The squats were a pleasure and I loved them, the bench was a disappointment but there are theories that can rectify the situation and I am inclined to implement them. The deadlifts could have been better but paid the price for being the third lift. There is a plan for that too, and again i am inclined to implement it. An enjoyable day, I met some people whose company I enjoy very much, the warm up room was very good. I have no arguments or issues with the referees. The total was a disappointment but there are reasons for that, a harsh man would say it's because I am crap, and that harsh man would have a point. On the plus side - I have the inclination to sort it. And that gentle reader is worth a lot. | ||

The fates and circumstance conspired against he last deadlift. I don't suppose it will bother but I would never treat a squat like that. I hadn't realized that you had filmed me. Many thanks for that. You are a kind and generous man. | ||

It does indeed, and a very fine one, some kind folk were good enough to comment on it and all had good things to say. The squat is the centre of my universe. I am very happy. My back. legs, triceps and traps all ache and I slept through the last hour of "Lewis" but I'm happy | ||

 a cynical old scrote Member 68, 6844 posts SQ 255, BP 132.5, DL 250637.5 kgs @ 110kgs UnEq | Well done on retaining your title Pedallo!!! Just a thought, does your squat not count as a British Record under the new weight categories? Or does your old one stand? | ||
