Aims for 2010??

Just wondering what all your aims were for next year, be it a new PB or aims for titles etc??

Mine is to get at least a top 3 at WSM (hopefully number 1) and win BSM if it happens!

Will probably compete a little less next year and concentrate on the big contests!

solid goals

300kg deadlift next year is my main goal, aswell as bringing up my weaknesses, grip, stones, tyre flip, fitness

to come top 3 in an intermediate contest would be good for me

300kg Deadlift would be great Carl!! Would you still be under 20??

good luck with that, although im sure its more grit, hard work and determination than luck, but you know what i mean :)

me...pull 200k (only another 10k to go) will probably have it done by feb. if i do, do you think that a 5 plate deadlift would be do-able by the end of next year?

calm down, its life, mate, its only a game

no, neither am i yet, lol, talk is cheap, but im quite confident i will get it

no doubt ken will post sayin how he did it LOL but who cares what ken says??

I would like to actually win a competition rather than coming 2nd or 3rd!

Improve my overhead and squat, whilst continuing to push my good events.

Stay happy and healthy too.

6ft 5", approx 22 stone.  Lancashire Strongman Champions competition went great, now time to see if I can qualify for ESM!

Not suck so much at equipped powerlifting :)

More specifically get into the low-mid 700kg total mark.

Plus to be in good enough raw shape to have a good go at placing in GBPF Unequipped Champs next september.

And finally get my deadlift mojo back!

Me? 600 raw total in comp would be nice.

Feel the fear, and do it anyway!

Actually mate I wasn't going to say that.
 
All I was going to say was quote your post saying you turned 20 end of August and then put under "Therefore losing our bet! "
 
 
Not thought about next years goals yet, but I guess they'd be something like:
 
Top 3 at Scotland's, qualify for UKs and BSM (permitting if it's on)
Do well at the Arnold's Am contest in March
330k belt only deadlift
310k wrapped squat
180k jerk from rack 
Then apart from the above, just up weakness' like conditioning, log and viking press.

I still want the 200kg bench and world record 2 hand pinch at the Whey Power Challenge and then to win the British Grip and Euro grip in 2010 before retiring from active competition.

Outside of my own personal gym and competition targets I'm working with (and would like to add a few more) athletes whose aims become my aims. So I have one who's best bench is 120kg and I am working with him to get a 140kg effort at Xmas and another I wanna work with to get him into the Marine Commandos. I'd like to add a a grip guy to that list and make him either a champ or a record breaker (just not my records ha ha).

Aye mate, contacted Dione Wessels to say that I was very keen to do it. She said that I'd be very welcome and to contact the guy doing the UK Invites. There was another athlete before me, but he turned it down so I got a place.
 
As far as I know it's Rob Frampton, Jay Hughes, Paul "Cuddles" Carter, Andy Cairney and me.
 
Really looking forward to it, events are heavy and right now only thing I would 'worry' about is the log, but after 4more months training I'm confident I'll get upto where I want to be.
 
Really hope you get to go to Arnolds Pro mate, we'll be watching the Pro show after our comp on the Friday and then Saturday too. Do you know when the invites are given out bud?

A lot have already gone out but not all of them!! I really know I can do some serious damage given the chance! I may have weakness in the db and axle but I have a genuine chance of winning the others if I am in shape!

We will see

Aye, hopefully things will go the way we want for the both of us!

Good luck at Venice Beach mate, looking forward to seeing the results!

I'd like to say "dead lift 300Kg before Carl does", but I think he'll get there before I do!

A couple of short-term lifting targets I've got are - raw squat 220Kg (almost there) and power clean 120Kg (I know I could do it now if my technique wasn't ****e).

Apart from that - just keep improving, don't get injured, and hopefully put in some decent comp performances!

I'd also like to 'pinch' a pair of 20Kg discs with one hand (see Sugden).

Oh, and get on TV again - for more than 10 seconds!!!

LOL, wayne, im not so sure, i tihnk i will do it next year for sure, would be nice to do it before my 21st at theend of august, but we will see

Mine is to get a nice sharp body in next year.  Extreme power etc.
For sure I`m going to 2010 WSM competition
(if I will get a ticket lol)
