GATES said: He was on about the englands qual been invite. Yeah just re read it  Does seem strange to have that as invite only if the other 2 are open to anyone  | |||

MarkClegg said:I got the impression these events were open to anybody NOT invite only ? The way I read it , the 3 qualifiers are open to anyone and then the winner of each goes thru to the giants live comp in leeds which will serve as a wsm qualifier , seeing as the previous giants live qualys have been strictly invite only this has gotta be a fairer way of doing things | |||

| Unless your actually a longjumper yourself or have experience of training for the sport then I think you have to give this guy the benefit of the doubt and assume he knows what hes doing. Ive just started practising yoke pick ups by loading a smith machine with 300k + ( a weight I cant yet full squat) and performing what at best could be called a quarter squat , this is after ive already done full squats in the power rack ( different room ) Whilst a few people have asked what Im doing nobody has taken the piss and I wouldnt expect them to , each to their own | |||
