Britain's Most Powerful Hands 2012 thoughts

Some thoughts on the events
 
Adjustable thick bar - the current record is held by David Horne and is, I think, 125.5kg or so. Beatable. I've pulled 140-kilos on a 2.5-inch handle and got air under 150kg so fancy my chances on this event. It replaces the Apollons Axle.

Ironmind Silver bullet - record is held by Mark Felix and is 43.25 seconds. We'll see. I'm working on it and will most likely look to do 3 work sets of increasing time over the training cycle.

Loading race / medley ( 2 minute time limit). Never my favourite event but nevertheless the last (and only I think) time I did one in competition I managed a 3rd place sport with 18 of 20 implements at the Chad Woodall event.
 
Two hand pinch lift - WR is 120kg or so by Jedd Johnson. It's been a while but I still hold the No 2 spot at 117 or so kilos.

Sledgehammer deadlift. Not done this and with Stew Killick beating me last time out on the Weaver Stick I'll do ok but am looking at top 3.

Frame hold for time with the heavyweights holding 700llb. Depends on a number of factors. I've held more and picked up loads more but this was all sometime ago. Open to chance right now.
