Powerlifting

[Husky33]

all i do is bench, deadlift, and pullups....sometimes squat when i'm not being lazy. Seriously i struggle to spend more than 40 minutes in the gym these days.

But i have abs....how does that work???

Cmon guys, by now you should all know abs/being lean/ripped whatever you want to call it, is all diet. You can squat 300kg's and be fat, and you can squat 300kg's and be ripped.

The weights don't give a shit about your physique, they just want to be lifted. You alone are in control of your physique.

On a side note though, the more muscle you have, the more you can afford to eat junk food and shit....like me eating ice-cream every night

Simon, I posted your 240kg deadlift video, you should post a pic of what you looked like then, I cant be f**ked going to ns to find the pic and the one you gave me is in my wallet but its worn lol

[Husky33]

haha nah, posting topless photos is a thing in the past.

Definitely gonna get back into lifting now though

one you gave me is in my wallet but its worn lol

[markos]

The asthetic crew would die if they saw what Simon looked like from squatting, benching and pulling

[R31Nismoid]

Oh Sunday is Bathurst...

Going to have a TV on Markos? LOL! It's against my religion... But am coming with Nick anyway...

[markos]

I have internet so we can probably get it on there Ash

Motorsport on the gym TV's = Gym Perfection

I used to go to an anytime fitness that played the motoGP in front of the squat rack, was awesome.

[markos]

Definitely no TV on training days, but on comp days we have spectators, theyre allowed to watch TV

210 good

220 fail and injured. Lol.

It's hard being this bad.

[NickR33]

what have you done to yourself? recurring injury?

[TTT]

Yeah recurring lower back issue.

She'll be right.

Good luck tomorrow.

Give us an update when done.

Thanks to all the judges and spotters/loaders... was great because everything moved so smoothly and quickly

cheers for the free Tshirt!... 'This object is the part of this territory' clearly someone in Slovakia was using google translate lol

looking at the video I think there was more in my bench and deadlift... pretty sure I maxed the squat though (it was pretty ugly)... Markos did say to take 165kg... so I took 170kg... maybe next time I should listen!

anyone who is thinking of having a go definitely should... pretty nice having people you don't know cheer you on... a very different atmosphere than your average gym

[R31Nismoid]

Good day out, atmosphere down there indeed really motivating (half the reason for my trip down), some very strong guys for a novice comp.

Solid effort Nick, 500kg total, huge!

Only took me 35mins to get home Nick, so realistically it's not that far provided traffic isn't farked.

[TTT]

Well done nick.

wow that's great time... easy in that rolling couch your driving now;) good choice of car for after a squat session, a GTR isn't ideal haha

thanks for coming

TTT: cheers mate, hope you get that back sorted

Was good to finally meet Ash, I've know of him and known his mates for 6 years yet we've never met

Might repay the favour and support his new venture shotly

Lot longer than 6 years, I'd be pegging it at around 8-9!

Good to meet you in person finally as well, once I'm off shift work, I'll be down for a chat
