Strongman Meet

Will · 08-08-2009, 17:26

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!

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.

I've only included ones of us here at BD so we'll start off with SPW.

Dan did 40 reps in a minute!!!

Hardly broke into a sweat! Amazing effort.

Struggled a bit but made it look easy nonetheless

Not perfect form but bloody hell he did well, 7 sets of 10 reps!!!

My poor fingers!!

I think I did 15 reps of full power clean presses.

About to collapse in a heap!

The start of the pain!!

Almost in tears at this point!!

An event I found easy but ripped my fingers to shreds!

Great fun!

There you go thought I'd share.

You are both crazy fools

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

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

Will · 08-08-2009, 18:55

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

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

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 · 09-08-2009, 04:47

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

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

Apart from that, keep up the good work

Will · 09-08-2009, 08:08
