Should be good seeing as we're both coming in heavier this season.

I'm a shade under 14st but at least as lean as when you last saw me when I was about 13st 7 but carrying more pace now as well. I was breaking through quite well in training gaining 15-20 yards with 2 or 3 guys hanging on

Nice! What would be great if some videos could be taken.

Never look back with regrets and think "what if" for that way madness lies. There are those that will envy you and try and undermine you. They are not worth your time.

Got a ~75-80kg log made from a telegraph pole now.
Quite heavy, will be fun to press. Much nicer to hold than the keg. Can't clean it up though because of my knee. Stu's messed up his shoulder as well so neither of us can do anything. He can't even wear the harness. Hes only training lower body and I'm only training upper body at the moment. Ridiculous
You ESN guys should come for a session sometime when we start it up again. Whole new world of pain. Especially if you do squats the day before

Who'd be stupid enough to do legs before a strongman meet?! :

Only a right plank perhaps?
