On another note my father in law has never liked me we went through years of not talking I have started talking to him now to make life easier for my wife but he is a skinny miserable little man that only likes football and horse racing and I don't like either and I find it impossible to talk to him maybe this boy is in a similar situation

Yes its encouraging that the lads only in his mid twenties so his real man strength is still a long way off......its just a shame he isnt a human giant with the appetite of a blue whale if he wants to reach the top in that sport......i been saying for years that competition should be done on a size/weight ratio it should be about who the strongest person is not who the biggest giant is.

That's why I've always enjoyed the 90 and 105kg competitions where everyone's on an even keel.I used to train in a small gym with Terry Holland and my pal who was Britain's 105kg champion for a couple of years I was always impressed to see my pal far behind big Tel on static lifts and quite often out performing him on medley type of events or anything that required any kind of cardiovascular fitness even though he was two thirds the size.

Two men sitting in different rooms having the exact same thoughts lol

[General lee 979]

I think if they added weight classes it would finish the sport off for alot of people only the real fans would watch as it is a lot of people that wouldn't watch a strongman comp will watch worlds strongest man at new year anyway does anyone know if it repeats?

Couldnt agree more its about the strength of the human body not the size i wouldnt mind betting im stronger across the chest and shoulders than some of them lads but legs/lower back the weights they shift would kill me ......another 2 or 3 stone surrounding my hips and they become very different lifts so who are we really kidding.........Juoko Ahola could deadlift 3 and a half times his bodyweight......you cant tell me Brian Shaw deadlifting twice his bodyweight is a stronger human being just because he is 10 stone heavier !!.......thats the reality Ahola who for me was one of the strongest men who ever lived couldnt even compete with these giants today.

People on the dole cant afford 10,000 calories per day...........ask any pure strength athlete what the hardest task they have to dedicate themselves to on a daily basis is and they will all say eating not training.

[gnasher16 31,261]

You'll only be stronger if you're a power lifter knash. I bet they can press a fair bit.

I competed for a few years but at much lower bodyweight than today only the bench press really suited me....in the old days when the overhead press was an Olympic lift id of cleaned up but it was such an easy movement to cheat on they did away with it...... even today im rarely outlifted on a strict military press some lifts just fit you.....and some dont.
