Somebodys gona have to get the bullet for organising this s**t. Still enough of being a morbid bas***d it'll probly be really good. Who's gona win it then, Lalas or poundstone for me | |||

martinb said:I suppose without Z, Lalas is the favourite for the Arnolds? duno mate events ant even been confirmed yet, i think its gona be really close. poundcake shaw radz and lalas could be top four in any order, think lalas might just tip it thou ( i know folk always hate on poundcake but u gota admit he's a proven force in the arnold, just suits him i guess ) | |||

| Had a exercian ( i guess ive spelt that wrong lol ) headache bout three weeks before crimbo so had to have two weeks off. Im around 4kgs of the weights i was moving before the injury so should be there by end of the month. Just entered the royal countys festival of strength comp in the 90kg class, think im gona mix my training up a bit about 10 weeks out from that. In the middle of building my house aswell so gona have to get the most benefit from my training with the little free time im gona have leading up to the comp. Any ideas for a programme any one, or shall i just freestyle it?? | |||

MrSmall said:Probably a combination of injury risk vs doing another 4 comps in the 2 months after and getting paid well (along those lines anyway), and having to put on a load of bodyweight and then lose it for SCL/WSM comp performance. He's won it enough times, if he doesn't want to do it he doesn't have anything to prove to anyone. New athletes and strongman title contenders appear all the time, as in all sports, you can't expect the old warhorses to be as active as the young guns all year round. true, really opens things up aswell | |||

Bod said:Z is out. man thats propa s**t, the increasing weights what makes the arnold differnt. Think something must have gone off between him and the organisers, probly to do with money | |||
