A little bit of extra weight has gone a long way, 160kg was super fast and that was with "Louise" wraps, so may need to adjust for proper knee wraps next week. Bench is a bit unstable and hard to get down, but it will pass. Quote "Gentle means tired." Battle Log / Youtube Channel / (lol am an..)

Tankweazel Posted May 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2015 SO I've been busy with life stuff since Germany. Still training hard and hoping to pull decent lifts out the bag in three weeks.I've been up to a lot of self promotion stuff in the run up to the world classic. Let a good bench workshop with the guys at TDT and wrote a blog post with Tom.http://transdermaltechnology.co.uk/blog/bench-press-arch/Got sassy as hell in an interview with Ambition Athletics.http://www.ambition-athletics.com/#!the-ipf-interviews-11---louise-murray/c12grThe BJJ guys are all now well aware of what I get up to off the mat. Thank god they've still not got the whole story for when the gym starts it's MMA program. Oh and some throws for ippon, which only really counted in my head, they're just good take downs to every one else. Quote "Gentle means tired." Battle Log / Youtube Channel / (lol am an..)

Tankweazel Posted June 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 I have been absentish due to lack of internet and various other issues that were super urgent.I've still been training for the IPF classic though. Deadlift is top seekrit, but bench and squat openers are looking back at a healthy 130/80 respectively. This could make the world classic both the most exciting and disappointing for me so far.http://goodlift.info/live.phpFriday morning at 11am Finnish Time. I will be the one that looks like they're about 12 and probably still lifting in the wrong weight class. Quote "Gentle means tired." Battle Log / Youtube Channel / (lol am an..)

Rooks Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Sure you are going to kick ass like always. What weight class you going with? I'm assuming 57kg based on what you and Sundae have been saying. As for watching live... Sorry... was going to try and watch live... but yeah. Won't be happening. I like my bed too much at 3am. I'll watch the replay, assuming there is one. 1 Quote Link to comment
