Eastside Barbell Bench and Deadlift Comp


Recommended Posts

No doctor squat or Luigi. Was a good turnout with about 13 lifters including a few first timers.

Will get some results up at some point but there was some good lifting including the guys from Criton Cobbers with Nick Rhind deadlifting 250kg and benching 147.5kg(?) at just over 90kg. This was a big step up from his 125kg, 225kg at the Canterbury's. John Warren repeated his unoffical world deadlift record with 210kg at 81kg and 70 years young.

Eddy who has recently started training at Eastside smoked 150kg on the bench but then forgot to push when we put 160kg on the bar. Eddy will bench 180kg by the end of the year, this guy was made to bench!!

Oh I'm a little flattered, thanks for the encouragement. It was a good comp with lots of help from the boys at East Side especially to those of us who had never lifted before. Thanks guys, much appreciated. Hopefully you can organise more like this so that prospective competitors can get the feel of the real competition. I am looking forward to keep lifting large and master the technique and add a bit of strength as well.

Shot, Eddy. You have a lot of power there!
