Craith said:We really havent got any decent types of gyms around here, been looking for a while and unlress your willing to travel a hour and 1/2 everytime, your probably not get anything even slightly decent. oh and ray williams who is a commonwealth weightliftin medalist is based in holyhead, but, again quite a bit to travel. If i where you, i'd find a diffrent uni. yeh its abit annoying really, its a bit late now to cos ive been accepted! i should have a car so it shouldnt be to bad! | |||

PorkPie said:Andy Goswell is a Gog, Ynys Mon I think. I would make the effort to find out where he trains - its got to be better than a commercial gym. Mark Clegg knows him, you might want to ask him. yeh, i think theirs one in llangefni actually looks alright, thats not to far. | |||

Hi everyone, I competed in my first powerlifting meet last Sunday at intershape in Colne. It was a truly great experience and I was able to get loads of advice from some great lifters. heres the summary, Squat, first-170 good second-180 good third-190 good felt good with these, no real problems, just need to pay more attention to the refs who let me off lightly with a few things. Bench, messed up on my first attempt as i didnt wait for the start signal like a retard!! first-110 fail second-110 easy third-120 also fairly easy I put it all down to a lack of experience! Deadlift first-220 good second-230 good third-240 good I was very happy with how it all went and with meeting some good lads who gave me lots of great advice. Many thanks to all the organisers as well for a great comp. will post a video up soon... |
