Rach and Mel want to see the gurls lift so we be there by 1030 and will be there for the day bro...Will swing past Big Johns and collect him on the way.

We will be easy to spot Gymsta...just look for 2 guys eating all day and SFS counting carbs

f*cker!!

i literally lol'd when i read that. i might have to turn up with 3 wendys burgers, just to throw gymsta off :pfft: :pfft:

[TonganTerror]

looking forward to some results post em up peeps!! \:D/

[startinfromscratch]

well i got there at 1030, left at 6. was only partway through the 110's benching! so missed alot, but duty calls. got some squats on vid though, il post up 2mo. was a very cool atmosphere!

wookie was very unfortunate to miss all 3 squats, his 3rd squat@350 got depth, and came up, but lost balance and stepped back mid squat. gutted!

[Beef]

i stayed for the morning session, was pretty good to watch. some of the women were exceptionally strong!

were you the one with all the tats SFS? was looking out for someone with 3 wendys burgers

[startinfromscratch]

[steak]

[Beef]

congrats on your 280 squat BarBrother :nod:

[BarBrother]

Cheers Gymsta, it was 275kg but yeah. so did you end up having a look then?

[tinytraps]

Barbrother was easily the best lifter in the morning sesh IMO, same with john strachan. 300sq at 90bro?

[Beef]

Cheers Gymsta, it was 275kg but yeah. so did you end up having a look then?

yeah came down for part of the morning session, was pretty surprised by some of the weight people (including yourself) were lifting. i left after the squats cus they took so long, so didnt get to see bench or deads. what numbers did you get for those lifts?

[BarBrother]

Cheers TT and gymsta, yeah 300kg would be nice, gt some hard work todo to get there.

TT you trained at my gym for a sess last year aye?

I wanna say right now that I think John Strachan is probably one of the most professional and humble lifters i have ever met.He has performed consistently over three or four years. He dropped from U75 to U67.5 and done both a PB on bench and deadlift, he benched 150 @ 66kg!

[steak]

Yeah he was impressive for sure. Those lighter classes have some talent in them. :clap:

[Tonka]

Very nice squat Barbrother, seeing another 300kg squat @ 90kg in NZ would be awesome - and you're still a junior! :clap:
