It's only gay if you smile during the reach-around.
Nice one Terry. Good luck with it all. So, are you just going to train those events now or keep what you've been doing (like it hasn't been working already :up )

So with Terry Hollands being the only podium WSM finisher to step into the Arnold and with Pekanov winning the Ukraine Mini-Arnold contest, the final competitor list should look like this...

Zydrunas Savickas
Vasyl Virastyuk
Mikhail Koklyaev
Andrus Muramets
Brian Siders
Terry Hollands
Phil Pfister
Derek Poundstone
Oleksander Pekanov
Benedikt Magnusson

1st Alternate - Winner of Fit Expo (maybe?)
2nd alternate - Travis Ortmayer
MC - Travis Ortmayer

The events are the same as 2007, except the stone will weigh 525 with some extra layers of lead paint added supposedly.
I think the prize purses will be up too?

This will be a very exciting contest. Terry have you competed with Z, V, Andrus, or Mikhail before?

Word is that Siders is stronger then ever in the DL and OH Press.
Pfister is supposedly looking very good and strong.
Haven't heard or seen a thing about Vasyl since the WC, anyone know what is up with him?
Anyone have a scoop on what Mikhail, Zydrunas, Andrus or any of those guys are looking like?
Derek is nursing his ankle from the Mohegan, supposedly will be in great shape for the Arnold.
What about Benedikt? How is he looking?
Terry, your moving events with heavy weights are great, DL is great, you have a good chance here! That is 3 events that you know are very good out of 6. How is the OH with the 366 axle or the 200lb DB? Heavy Stones? I think you will be the biggest guy there too! It will be cool to meet you there! I'll probably break my neck straining to look up at you!! lol

Somebody get him a pink t-shirt that says on the front "You ask why am I wearing a pink t-shirt?" then on the back - "I'm 28 stone, I'll wear whatever the fuck I want!!"

Yeah it's a shame Mariusz and Wenta turned down there shots but I'm not complaining as it gave me more of a chance to get to the Arnolds.

I've never competed against those guys no!! I've only competed against Phil and Derek I have never even met the other guys.

I have to say the weak events I have are gonna be the two pressing events! It has always been my achilles heal, If I'm totally honest the Axle would probably be my best pressing event and I'll be looking for around 3-4 reps with it, well that is my aim at the moment, if I can hit 4 I will be very happy!! The dumbell I honestly don't know, the heaviest I've had my hands on up till now is only 85kg(186lb) and as it stands at the moment I can get 3 reps with that, maybe even 4. I know I will lose points on the 2 OH events so I need big points on the other 4.

I've gotta be honest this is my first year and haven't had loads of time to prepare so not like I'm expecting to go and win but I wanna put in a good showing on every event, that way hopefully I can get an invite back next year with a bit more than 4 weeks notice!

Good luck, I think this is your kinda contest and you will do a great job! Those numbers you posted are great and will definitely keep you in contention! I imagine you must feel pretty excited! Thanks for the reply!

:respect :beer

Now if we could only find out what Vasyl has been doing since the WC..! Seems like he went into hiding after that contest. I wonder if he has been working extra hard on his DL. If he gets that up a good bit he can place higher then Zydrunas, and confirm his WC victory. I imagine the most pressure is on Vasyl at the moment.
