 Not in Loz's top 10 uk strongmen Member 144, 4421 posts SQ 320, BP 165, DL 350835.0 kgs @ 123kgs Eq | I believe the Finland Giants Live was before Darrens comp. Don't remember Roberto doing any shows after he qualified. | ||

 Nothing left in the tank. Member 5, 25563 posts Administrator | i liked they way they covered stuff in tinfoil !! great show from felix ...felt a bit for the young romanian lad but he should have got himself a squat suit ...or just been better at squatting ...it was a great chance for him to qualify | ||

tabbouleh and fattoush salads were very refreshing Member 267, 8548 posts SQ 220, BP 165, DL 250635.0 kgs @ 90kgs Eq | didn't think much of today's events; the first tyre/bird pull event was a bit strange and the squat contraption was awful. Plus, there was no deadlift. EVERY strongman comp needs a deadlift event. | ||

 Has achieved nothing. Member 1386, 292 posts | WSM is on tonight at 8 p.m. James Richardson and Caroline Pearce present all the action from the opening heat of the finals, taking place at Wingate University in North Carolina, where Britain's Mark Felix is among the six competitors aiming to progress. Two of the strongmen will move through to the final, with Felix up against the highly fancied American Brian Shaw | ||

 Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22056 posts | Dominant performance by Shaw. Felix did well. Question for Terry/Loz - how were the "stats" (flexibility etc) worked out? | ||

Question for Terry/Loz - how were the "stats" (flexibility etc) worked out? It can't have been just me that thought the stats were f**king stupid? Flexibility lol I also don't see the relevance of the HR monitor, take anyone and put them at their limits and it will rise, so what... | ||

 Trump will get another four years Member 126, 16707 posts SQ 160, BP 110, DL 225495.0 kgs @ 75kgs UnEq | that dumbell medley was very reminiscent of another great comp I know about! trend setting!  all in all I thought it was a great show. liked felix's little background film at adlington. I hope they do some more of those. events were all solid with none of the old keg squat/deadlift kit that was becoming so boring. didnt like the heart monitor thing or the stats but I think its good theyre trying some new things. maybe that kind of stuff would be interesting to the layman. great start! | ||
