This from a guy who has never seen Paul on tyre...so how you can make the call is beyond me!?
When I was alluding to the straps, it was more about the frame TBH mate


probably more a dig at me to get training more than a REAL prediction mate Grin

I think thumbs are very well needed on axle deadlift
I find it easier ! BUT I do have hands like bananas !

One thing that is clear is that there is plenty of information coming forward about the comps/events etc. That should help keep it as level a playing field as possible.

There's a thing called YouTube JC !!

Fact remains people complain about the comp then when the events are similar complain again instead of training it ..

shanejer said:JC I could do that Deadlift medley with no f**king straps ... If the 105ers can't do it at this level the tbh you don't belong there ! Have you ever tried cupping an axle on deadlift it's a price of Piss

Ben did 260 axle pull cupped when his bar 1rm was 260 ...



So what your saying is that the 3rd strongest man in Englands U105kg doesnt deserve to be there because he needs to use staps to complete the deadlift medley


shanejer said:AND !!!

All year although the events have not been released everyones been saying they will be similar to last year (arm arm etc) but i dont ever see anyone train them ... I know my man the hix will as I will force him to but people just turn up on the day get owned by Paul who's trained for the comp and then moan and say it was fixed!! If you trained the events regular leading up to the comp and have worked on grip all year as last year it became apparent it was a weakness at UKs! You won't get completely run over by paul ..

Personally i think Hixxy will beat him on tyre if he sorts his conditioning !



But hixxy hasnt trained the expected event all year round, hes going to try and cram everything in to the next 6/8 weeks or whatever it is like everyone else will do

And to say Hix will beat woods on Tyre when Hixxy hasnt even touched one is a Joke

You do come out with some s**te sometimes Shane, perhaps if you did less talking and competed at ESM and qualified you could show all us none deserving lot how its all done

Either way it will be a good show, I might look stupid again like last year but I will be happy just to complete the comp with no injuries

thats debatable, but what isnt, is that Paul has been injured for much of the year, so this should be his competitors best chance yet to dethrone him!

Just wish it wasnt so far.......few beers, in the Kent sun, watching the top guys in the UK go at 9 gruelling events.....couldnt think of a better way to spend my Sunday

Hope it gets the crowd (which I'm sure it will) and performances from the guys, this show deserves

Would love to see Robbo or Hixxy* win this...my forming training buddy especially

*I'd include Marsbar, but unfortunately, I don't think these events are the 'best' for him Unhappy

I've more or less known what UKs events are for a long while! Aint going to train them tho, not when I've got Quals and ESM podiums to try and hit.

Now I will train those events!

Cheers mate. Tis a shame about the distance. Herne Bay is great for a beer to afterwards. I will be out and on it.

Plan is to beat one of the big 2, Woods or Hixx. Not bothered which one though lol
