Big thumbs up for today mate. Was good to see an agressive approach to numbers. You knew what you needed nailed it and then some more. Balls of steel.

Onwards to the British.

Nice work Tokar!

Seeing you qualify, and then get the 255, was the best bits of the comp for me Grin

Ah, cheers Jo, that's really nice!

Thanks to everyone for their support - and Tony, it was good to meet you at last, even though I didn't know who were at first!

So lots of people saw it anyway, but I have to have an official write-up...

North West Counties Unequipped Championship
Rhino's Gym, Oldham

Weighed in at 94.9kg

Squat
170 180 185

Bench Press
130 135 137.5

Deadlift
230 250 (PB) 255 (PB)


I had been planning to open at 175 on squats but my last session left me slightly less confident than I wanted to be so I took 170 instead. It didn't feel all that great so I stayed slightly conservative and went for 180. That was harder (obviously) but felt better somehow and I was pretty confident I could get 185, which was what I was bargaining for anyway. It went up OK and in retrospect I reckon I could have had 187.5.

The 130 bench was OK, but I was told one of my heels was off the floor and my head had to be more on the bench. Got one red on the 135 for the heel thing, but it wasn't so bad and the press command, to my relief, was no problem. 137.5 started badly with the ref telling me to put my head on the bench when I could have sworn it was, and I wasn't concentrating properly and didn't wait for the start command. Stupid of me, but again, 135 was what I bargained for, leaving me needing a 250 DL to get the 570 total I needed.

Opened at 230, no problem. Thought, f**k it, no point pissing about with 245 as I intended - I needed 250 so I should just go for it. 250 was a f**king great lift, it was always going up (although now I can't actually remember how hard it felt) and the euphoria after getting it was fantastic. For a split second I considered leaving the third lift but then I thought, Well, I'm not injured, might as well push it as far as possible. 255 was probably the hardest lift I've ever done and I was absolutely shattered at the end of the competition. But it was amazing to get a 15kg PB!

255 felt like it took an age to finish - I must compare the video with my 240 last year and see which takes longer!

Almost can't believe I've qualified for the National Championships!

I think you'll find that the 255 took every so slightly longer! You don't see better grinds than that very often!

Seriously impressive performance today mate, I take my hat off to you. Well done and I look forward to hopefully watching you at the Nationals.

aye man, i think that 255 was the lift of the day and I bet many people were left with that opinion! proper f**king grind, but always moving and no signs of wanting to give it up. To have that kind of hunger after already nailing the qualifying total was awesome!

Nice work mate.

NATIONALS!!!

saw that you came in at 94.9kgs, how come? are you struggling to reach a full 100, ever tempted to do the 90's, only asking because I'm in between weight class as well.
