 When I have enough cash, I get a deep tissue. Member 465, 11029 posts SQ 240, BP 175, DL 302.5717.5 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | JC said: Daz is a beast at everything I imagine Hope if (well when) you win BSM, at Worlds shot comes from it.....be great to see you take on thye yanks/top eastern europeans like Lalas and Sergei Sergei konushuk? (spelling). Is he still competing in 105s? Alexander and Gert are the men to beat surely? Think Ben is up to that standard imo | ||

Think Ben is up to that standard imo If the comp is in Ukraine...yes If its at a "neutral" venue, Sergei (if still at 105) and Lalas are up with the best in the world. There's also that Russian dude, forget his name...? | ||

There's also that Russian dude, forget his name...? Alexander Mansterov? He placed 2nd behind Gert Gerasimov at the last wsm 105 final I think. Agreed Sergei and Lalas are also incredible. Think the Ukrainians will still do well on any soil though. | ||

 The legendary Discus Ben Member 1550, 476 posts | Very kind of you to bring talk of WSM 105 into my journal, but one step at a time, lol! I spoke to Paul Woods at EMPM on Sunday about his experience out in the Ukraine, seems that even when WSM 105 goes ahead the events are hand picked by competing athletes, its run by people who just invite their mates, any outsiders are made to feel very uncomfortable and they "fix" any results that don't go the way they wanted. However things change, lets hope that someone gets the chance to represent the UK on a fair playing field this year. (That's a tad optimistic based on previous years!) | ||

(That's a tad optimistic based on previous years!) yes this is something i heard also - its a shame really but i would like to think that the organiser of the competition would look at you and think "f**k me" i want this guy in my competition? No one wants to watch the same ppl winning the same events every year........ Keep doing what your doing mate and something good will come your way im sure | ||

 vegetarian with a big deadlift - who would have thought...

(That's a tad optimistic based on previous years!) Aye, its a shame that it appears only Ukraine can fund these comps. I'm still waiting to hear exactly what internationals will be available for the winner of BSM through United Strongmen. It says on our membership confirmation "The winner from the qualification contest will have secured spot to United Strongmen under 105kg World Championssip 2013 and also for 2012 if such competition is organized." | ||

Log was reasonably comfy, always find it much easier in a comp tho. Little circuit and some stretching last night, trained at home and the heaviest weight I have is a 12KG kettle bell, so that had to do! | ||

The legendary Discus Ben Member 1550, 476 posts | Had a good few days off this week (my body needed it) spent 3 days in Venice which involved a lot of walking! Been suffering with knee pain as well. First session back tonight, I've updated my blog accordingly. Highlights were few and fair between! Managed 300 deadlift for 3x3, a little log press and not a lot else! | ||

The legendary Discus Ben Member 1550, 476 posts | The poor week of training has extended into this week! I'm blaming the knee problems and the 15 hour days I've been doing in an effort to replace my whole kitchen. I did however get a decent session in tonight in very hot conditions at the gym. Updated my blog with a few little bits, but nothing of note. | ||

technical retard Member 172, 36827 posts SQ 310, BP 205, DL 335850.0 kgs @ 108kgs UnEq | I must be reading that f**king blog wrong, surely. You failed a 105KG strict press......yet can log 160+...surely not!? If so, how the f**k...!!! (and also it gives me hope that you are actually human) Nice solid few sessions on everything else. 140 x 5 on the powercleans is quality! | ||

My strict press is utterly terrible! 100KG is indeed my PB. However I can jerk double that (Behind the neck). Did some more squatting in prep for Britain's last night, I really don't like all this equipment, lol. The video is my second set, playing around with bar position and grip on the axle. | ||
