I thought this was going to be a log of progress......

You've got me pwned already. Lets see you C&J and weighted chinup.

Current stats:
Height - 182cm
Weight - 85kg
Bench - 130kg (although haven't tested max, could be more)
Squat - 160kg (ATG, so I may do some to PL depth and see what happens )
Deadlift - 190kg (this will improve a lot as my hammys return to normal)
Wilks - 316

I'll post vids when I've done a bit better. Although even my best deadlift and bench and you have me still.

Damn good videos freako! Your a beast brother!

 

[El Freako]

We only need initial stats now and then maybe in 3 months we should see how far everyone has got.

Maybe some rules:
1/ Only raw lifts (belt only), no straps or wraps.
2/ Vids are required of lifts.

Tim: you want to see me jerk and clean?

Skip: In your dreams!

Creator: cheers mate.

 

[tim290280]

Rules:
1) Aussie born and bred
2) Only raw lifts (belt only), no straps or wraps.
3) Vids are required of lifts.
4) Good depth - bar touches chest, thighs at least parallel, to lockout

Ben I don't think either of our missus wants to have us go there.

Although I wouldn't mind including C&J, snatch, weighted chin/dip on the list if just for comparison.

 

[El Freako]

I'll try some weighted chins again and throw them in the mix, but I'm not sure about weighted dips with my dodgy shoulder.

 

[Skeptic]

Pretty sure my gym doesn't allow at least Snatches.

One of the trainers at Alex Hills used to do snatches during his training. Of course they have a lot more room there.

Maybe try some sessions at Alex Hills?

Well I guess you get a 0kg lift in that category then

I don't really understand why they don't want to invest $$ in proper bumper plates and bars and lifting platforms. The "dangerous" perception is just an excuse because they don't have the proper equipment or refuse to have proper trainers available. :angrydude:

But gyms will spend the equivilent $$ on a lovely smith machine that is as useless as tits on a bull.

Check Pickle's log. We all discussed the idea there.

As Tim said, see Pickle's log.

I'm in the lead most likely, but its not surety that I'll win. Its all fun anyway, I like having challenges to inspire my training more.

 

[Skeptic]

This is a competition over time, I'm sure the lead will change many times

Between April and August next year everybody gets a chance to catch up!

 

[Skeptic]

Bullshit... there is no timelimit

 

[El Freako]

We'll have to have a prize for the first to 2/2.5/3 x bw for bench/squat/deadlift.

A carton?
