| Great pull by Thor. How do people think Eddie would have placed if he finished the day? With him being second on the medley and he'd have won log easily he could have been very close with Thor for the win. | |||

Killelay said:Mentally demanding jobs I'd say would have more of a negative impact on training. Teaching/Nursing/Medical/Police. just my idea.. Tbh other jobs are mentally demanding more than teaching imo. Teaching sucks for training due to the amount of out of class prep time you have and marking etc. The summer full of training will be sweet though. | |||

| Have an office and lab based job that is good for training. Enough small lab tasks to keep me mobile during the day and not just sat down for eight straight hours. But nowhere near enough to be physically taxing. Other than when people grab me to lift things because they're heavy and I'm that strong guy. | |||

| Competed in first Powerlifting comp yesterday. The South West Powerlifting classic. Weighed in at 82.5kg for the 83kg class . Then got to eating and drinking. Squats, warm ups were feeling fine Went 167.5/177.5/185. All three good lifts and nice and easy. Final set was an all time squat pb. Beating my pre injury pb from November. Bench up next, Was lifting with the 74kg junior class and was opening like 20kg above the next guy. 125/135/140x Had to take unracks, then wait a long time for start command, and using the weird bench, threw me off a bit. Not happy without the new bench pb. Equal pb though. Deadlifts up next, Opened at 175, easy lift. Then went 192.5 to give 512.5kg total for qualification for nationals. Easy pull. Then went for 200 for lulz and failed it. Crap considering I've pulled 220kg before pre injury but it's getting back there now. Ended the day 185/135/192.5 @82.5 for 512.5kg total. Squat pb, equal bench pb, 12.5kg post injury deadlift pb. | |||

slimsim said:I've got a couple of tropical fish tanks that keep me entertained. Other than that I find I don't really have much time for hobbies other than playing with the kids, bike rides, swimming, get used as a human trampoline etc. Tropical tanks are awesome! I've just got a medium sized cold water tank at the moment (Just with a few fantail goldfish and a snail) but looking at getting a tropical tank soon. What type of fish have you got/any pictures? | |||

Squats, belted and low bar, up to 157.5*1, 167.5*1, easy opener. bench, paused and belted, up to 117.5*1, 125*1, elbows hurting post squat. Still got the bench easy though.
