| Rundown of my performance at Scottish unequipped: Squat: Opened 180, failed 190 which I made on 3rd attempt, just lack of composure there. Bench 120 came up easy enough, 135 had to be retaken due to back cramping up on 2nd attempt which made my arse shoot up but camp up pretty easy, think 140 would have been there on a good day. Deadlift 235 - so easy; 260 - came up pretty easy but lowered the bar very slowly as I had been pulled up by one of the judges for letting my 235 fall too quickly; 272.5 Failed at lockout and nearly passed out. All conventional pulls too Was pretty aggressive calling my attempts seen as only needed a 450 total to qualify for British and figured that my shot at getting a 600+ total was dead in the water after my failed 190. Onwards and upwards to my strongman comp in 5 days, hopefully I'll place! | |||

dannyboy73 said:Thaks Bacon Even having seen your vids I still picture you as the young Kevin Bacon in foot loose  I obviously needed a break! haha I got the name from being a fan of a guy on youtube called jailbaitwarrior when making this account but obviously it's a pretty horrendous name so I replaced jailbait with bacon due to it's overwhelming presence in my diet when I was playing around with keto dieting. | |||
