I would also like to know if straps are allowed in the silver dollar deadlift?

I'm still awaiting news on this. Straps are normally allowed on the silver dollar but it's down to the promoters.

I want to have a couple of training ses with the support gear allowed on the day to help get used to it so be nice to hear soon

Best bet is to contact the Pompey lot. The same guys who refereed the UK Southern Quals are refereeing the contest.

Right now it doesnt look like I'll be able to make it. Things here are very hectic at the moment, and I really cant plan anything from one day to the next. :(

I'm sorry to say it folks but it looks like i'm out off this one. Getting old and the body don't wont me to play. I have hurt my upper back on the squats i have had 10 day off and it's still giving me real trouble. and on top of that i have tendonitus in my left arm that is makeing the log near imposible for me to clean. My heart is saying have a go but my head is telling me to leave it and come back stronger next time.

I will be coming down to give my support to all the guy and maybe helping out if needed. Good luck to all and i'll be back next time to put on more of a show.

Sorry to hear that Mike. I know I'm feeling the pace of this prep myself and it's fast becoming a case of the hardest bits going to be making it to the starting gate. But I'll be there, Life in this real old dog yet.

Come on Courgar old man just back off on the heavy training and allow your self to heal up this last 2 weeks (just under).I'm sitting here with a trapped nerve in my neck and unable to train but i'm still in.If by the last Thursday or Friday your still the same then fair enough.

Thats not bad advice Mike, Do some healing and see where you stand. I've just had a week off with this cold and I can't squat because my right knee is screramingwhen I do, Only had about 8 weeks training for this, I'm 42 aching like fuck but on the day it will all seem worth it.

Seriously though Mike with just under 2 weeks to go don't throw in the towel yet.I did it b4 UKs and was so pissed about it.Thats why when i heard this comp was back on i HAD to come back.This could be your only chance (hopefully not) of doing Britains and to look back in years to come and say you did it will be great.

Are there any places left for this comp?Myself(Ian Plews)and Lee Allan(the guy who done the 170kg stone) would definitly be interested.We placed 5th and 6th at the Scottish 105 final.Just thought i'd ask on the off-chance that there may be a couple of places left.

Ian there is a reserve list and their is always the possibility that some may drop out. Send a pm through this board to Colin (llama power) as he is taking care of this side of things.
