I said: buzz said: Robbo said: hi mate.im desperate for a 120 and 140 stone aswell.but im in leeds.just thought id mention it if its possible to join in on the order? Probably easiest to contact the stoneman yourself man. Me and Stephen are both up in Scotia, so getting delivered to one of us is feasible, but unless you wanted to come and pick them up from here, I'd assume it's easier to nail them as separate orders. where you getting them delivered to mate?i could pick them up if it aint too far just read that post and relised your in scotland.ill PM him mate.cheers (should read posts properly) | |||

| Hi mate.congatulations on the qualifying spot and a well deserved fourth place. Was good to watch you guys compete and do so well. im going to get myelf a 10'' or 12'' log to train with and just wondered if you knew of anywhere to get a decent one from. (that doesnt cost the earth)! Seen one on internet but it said handle spacings were 24'' apart which i thort were a bit wide compared to the one used on sunday?? Any help would be much appreciated as im trying to get all my own equipment together Cheers | |||

JC said: Robbo said: cheers for a great comp ben.had a great day.All ran really well. Enjoyed competing against all you beasts even though i had a nightmare. Cheers for the advise and tips lads Was good to mett you mate. Ballsy performance on yoke, given it was your first attempt. Plus, a bad back, never goin to help matters on yoke Sure your farmers would have been quick but for a few errors. Solid deadlifting too Just rushed the farmers mate and went too fast and ended up looking like an idiot! deadlift - happy with 10 as i have not deadlifted for 6 weeks due to back probs Yoke - impossible. Was very impressed with anyone who can do it!dont think i will ever get the hang of it! Log - Gutted with 2.first time with larger diameter log and couldnt get air in the lungs when it was on the chest! Stones - felt light and easy, just need to be a bit fitter and faster but happy with 8 All in all, was a big learning curve and a great experience.very different with a crowd watching.back to training now as have a lot to work on! | |||

| hi joni.i havnt deadlifted for 5weeks because i inured it deadlifting so was just going to try some light deads on monday to see how it felt. gutted really because it was one of my best events. seems like a few of us are having rotten luck.just didnt want to do any lasting damage. As for the farmers. . . the pressure is on now to do well although as you already know, 1 farmers is totally different from another!might just go to have a go on the farmers! | |||

| GUTTED FOR YOU MATE.theres nowt worse is there.Get your meds down yor neck and double the dosage! My back is no better so i dont know whether to go and pass on the deadlift or just not bother?? dont think i could go and just watch as the dissapointment would be too much. if we are both out we will have to work extra hard for next year because i am hell bent on doing well at this stronman lark (one day)! | |||
