Strongman Meet

[Will]

As some of you may know Semi Pro and I met a couple of guys off OcUK that do strong man training. My god it's hard. Harder than training in the gym! I am completely ****ed! :D It's great though!!

Here are some pics:

This is the equipment of torture. The kegs are 45kg and the smaller one about 15kg I think. The tyre is around 90kg, the van is over 2T.

Great fun! :D

There you go thought I'd share. :)

[Del Lardo]

You are both crazy fools :shocked:

I spent the day eating ice cream in the sun, far more sensible ;)

[Muban]

Impressive stuff. Does your height not put you at a bit of a disadvantage with some of the stuff?

[Will]

The height can be beneficial from one aspect and detremental to another. So it's a bit of a 50/50 split really! But yes it can be a bitch :D

[Fayshun]

Your avatar pic, do you have "le petit Will" in the bung hole of the barrel? It looks like a cum-face!!

;)

You're crazy :) ;D

Don't think I've ever seen you with arms quite that size before, but it has been a while since we last met!

[Stan_Lite]

Hugely impressive Will - can't believe how much bigger you are since we last met :shocked:

I will just say one thing though - WEAR ****ING GLOVES NEXT TIME :p

Apart from that, keep up the good work :)

[Will]

Iain yup that is my "crisis" face. You like? ;) :p

gloves are a brilliant idea! ;D

as for size well remember i was exercising so it's not a true representation but thanks for the comments. :)

I am so sore today major DOMS - I love it :D

[Fayshun]

Iain yup that is my "crisis" face. You like? ;) :p

I'd like it even more in person.

It was. Rather tiring but I seem to have managed to escape without any injuries which is nice.

[Piggymon]
