Sparrow said:Thanks for the info. Big pulls! I'm a bit surprised by the low axle numbers though. yeh few of the lads were bit short of training reps hit don't think any of us trained with complete smooth axle | |||

Sparrow said:Good effort Josh. Sounds like qualification is an achievable goal for next year. How many reps won axle? Dead? Who were the top three? FINAL PLACINGS 1) Glen Luff (Vicki Cale) 52 Points 2) Scott Fellows 50 points 3) Ryan Turner 46 points 4) Steven Ohagan 45 points 5) Ross Phillips 42 points 6) Duncan Reith 41 points 7) Joshua Ainsworth 39 points 8) Jonathan Harmison 37 points 9) Joe Cook 32 points 10) Anthony Henderson 28 points 11) Matt Newbould 17 points 12) Ian Phillips 15 points. think dead was 13 , axle think 7 won | |||

DanCave said: Think that is a load of s**te tbh... the axles are identical axles no difference whats so ever. The difficulty you have with judging a squat is peoples opinion. Obv your opinion will be biased so not suprised that you didnt agree with that decision either. The comp ran smooth and was finished last event at 3hours 45mins. Really dont see why every comp needs to take 6 hours plus.. Maybe instead of blaming other things you should accept that you just wernt strong enough on the day and use that to give you the drive to improve. And your weigh in could of been so much simpler you where 106.7 fully clothed with a hoody on the full works. Instead of going away and sitting in a sauna jst get down to boxers and would of made it easy. took it off had t-shirt and boxers on second time round on 1st weighin , axles felt different to me , nameless person even said their different in feel which is why I went for one suggested , agree with squat at time was undecided opinions given to me later based on vids made me see different , not hating comp was smooth describing the type of comp that it is intensity is ramped up when it's condensed not a positive or negative vibe put on it | |||

JonHarmison said:to be honest Josh, your squat was a bit high, Not massively, but 1-3 inches all in all a good comp I thought, was a bit of a brutal turnaround from axle to deads for the likes of Ian phillips who was last on axle and first on deads. He has most cause for complaint there. but after that the pace chilled a little and was good. I was pretty peeved at the squat openers being dropped myself, if it was 240 like planned I think that would of affected my final placing pretty strongly to. s**t happens, I'm over it, gonna qualify next year now instead yeh pal gd comp just seeing some other squats on vid their are few out their same depth given not angry about it or spiteful, few pm'd me saying so, for that's it move on get stronger fitter around current bodyweight plenty work to be getting on with to bring a new package to next one , get a journal going | |||

Post Edited: 23.04.2016 @ 20:54 PM by josh_ains northern 105 write up weighing in , dropped food down and water loaded and lowered sodium to get down to weight in last week, day before weigh in 2 different scales both say im on target weight rate couple hot baths on weight before bed , half kilo under weight morning of weigh ins jump on their scale boxers thin t-shirt 1.7kg over no water or food consumed since wed night. straight to a gym with sauna took scale at least I know it's roughly 2kg off , in and out sauna realise cant find any decent ground to get a consistent scale reading only place is back at hotel exact same spot etc , so 90 mins google says that should be enough time lol weighin at 103kg nose popped etc f**ked no smooth cut I intended , reefed etc all good , shoulder blows up no site injection either been niggling for past couple days . day of comp feeling good except shoulder 1st event- axle c&p 110 x reps warm up 110 felt great moved onto similar axle 1st up in order 2 going at once picked the grippyier looking/feeling one got moved onto a less grippy one not equal imo , 1st rep 1st thought s**t this is smooth as f**k got a couple reps then had trouble gripping it , cleans took so much energy 4 or 5 on this big disappointment 6 at least with axle to left of me imo bigger reps were all done on it 2nd event-deadlift normal height 250kg reps 75secs hit 8 reps ,250 felt glued to the floor start of prep and was pulling in 3 movements nothing firing at all , nose trickled on 7th rep , then briefly rested asked for time to no avail went for 8th more quickly that I should have had I known time left , nose popped all I had decent number 3rd event-frame carry 260 x 20x20m a good event hadn't training it for a long while was told it was farmers , anyhow pickup fairly fast up turned felt good on way back frame swinging about perhaps too fast 1 metre before line hand slips other stays on hurtled off to left, definetly 1st with no slip , think 3rd-4th with it , VID ON facebook about 31 min mark 4th event-max back squat belt sleeves only very cautious on this event hip muscle above glute was unwalkable last Friday after carrying grandpas coffin, was slight tight at bottom of squat but all good no problems no weakness in it , 1st attempt 200 hit bars threw me forward got it lowered 2nd attempt 215 suitable jump for 230 I planned to hit comfyish , 3rd attempt 230 took time getting tight , 1 judge good lift, 2nd good lift , 3rd no lift , no lift theirs a couple identical in depth given on vid ,good points lost here couple of 215 and 220 230 5th event - flip x 3 medley tire flip 500kg into prowler 120kg added 20m no idea of this event never flipped a heavy tire above 300kg added tons of s**t into mill gym 280 one for training trained prowler twice when I could get access no-where near as heavy on either astro surface really different , flipped 1st 2 okish 3rd fumbled it had to reflip then got it , f**ked already prowler felt brutal half way run out of all energy traps lockup as close to heart attack as ive been for good while impossible to build momentum with the very large surface area it had the friction was kicking my arse , crawled over literally took 30 minutes recover positives got through it no cramp no issues their, prep was up their with worst for starting points strength was lowest it's been for years focussed mainly on the strength over fitness for majority , cant help thinking and points wise is accurate squat given , frame not dropped = top 3 , instead finished 7th not even factoring in longer recovery time for placing higher , start to finish under 3 hours, fine line | |||
