[ohjoshua]

would be good to see vid of the military press

[Wookie]

Basically theres a bar with 150kg on it, and I press it overhead. Probably my worst lift after bench, so no...not in a hurry to film it.

That's your worst lift? Put up a vid of your 500 kg deadlift then

Was hoping for 185 but wasn't there today.

[Realtalk]

Was good benching bro powerful sorry bout my newb spotting lulz... Been a while.

[Wookie]

 

Slightly stunned, I've just received an invite to the IHGF Pro Highland Games Worlds, June 8 2015 in Bressuire, France. AFAIK it's all expenses paid. The field is absolutely killer...top 2 Americans, top 2 Scots, Olympic medalist in the discus, WSM podium finisher, Commonwealth games shotputter etc.

 

With that said... I likely intend to continue my training as per normal with my sole goal of qualifying for the Arnold Classic Australia Pro Strongman next March. I have till late January to get the invite. All going to plan I will turn the focus to throwing after NZSM end of March.
