After talking with Glenn I will be running the southern qualifier for the uk's. looking to run in April/may venue dependant. Just wanted to get some events up for guys to start trainingThis is what I'm thinking
140 log for reps head to head
Car Deadlift for reps around 300ish no suits straps are fine
270-280 squat for reps no suits or briefs.
145kg farmers 40m head to head
Stones 175 over bar for reps, head to head
Yoke 380 40m head to head
Entry will be 15quid.
Supplements, and trophies for top 3. Maybe some extra prizes if I can get something sorted I'm working on.
Also may look at running a novice comp from 10-12.30 before the main event. This would be 5 events so will drop the squat
100kg log for reps head to head
Car Deadlift for reps. Will be around 220-240.
112kg farmers 40m head to head
270 yoke 40m head to head
130 stone for reps
This will be 15 quid entry and will have supplement prizes for top 3 and t shirts for all.
Date looking like 25may or 1st June
I will cap the novice at 20 guys
Spectators will be 3 quid but all competitors can bring one person in for free and kids under 12 there is no charge.
We really need to get our act together in the south after last years shambles of only 4 wanting to qualify. Even if you feel you can't do the squat or maybe the Deadlift get your names down as its a 6 event comp.
Provisional entries for opens only at the minute
Mike Holmes
Paul carter
Colin Hawkins
Will Egan
Phil Wooten
Rob frampton maybe
Lloyd renals
Adam bishop
Clapton Nicholson maybe
Sean Kennedy maybe
Terry Hollands big maybe, haha
James crozier maybe
Jamie sidders
Gareth pavey
Jon bleach

How sad my comments have been deleted. Don't really see what was up with them, congratulating a competitor on his attitude.

Yer soz my fault got an iPad(can't work it haha) and clicked on add thread instead of add reply haha now don't know how to delete it on here and still don't know why that button is at the end of a post but nevermind.
But all events are looking good and we would be nice to see some big numbers this year to represent the south so fingers crossed !

I'm not totally sure but I'm hoping to be safe. I have an idea of how it might work using two yokes as safety bars. I will wanna set them so they're just below parallel not so you have to touch

That's how it should be. Hate seeing high squats personally
