10 Aug
easy win at the Drugfree Powerlifting Nationals in Bendigo.
Using only my first two attempts in each lift I
managed a comfortable 800 kg total raw!!!!. Breaking every super
heavy record possible, using only a belt. Third attempts were used
to speculate on pb.s. I missed a 360kg but feel it is close. I won
the competition overall on swartz formula but because this was my
first comp back, I was not eligable to register any new records.
Overall a great warm up to the world championships in Russia. Score
280k 190k 330k 800k
23-24 Aug. World record breakers-Poland
In an extreme sport this is one of the most extreme
tests. 8 athletes try to break 8 world records. 4 of these athletes
have won w.s.m the current w.s.m was there to set the pace.a.k.a
Super Mario he set a blistering pace and won the comp decisively.
Breaking one world record by carrying a 175kg of steel for over
100 mtrs. I managed 6th overall and consider that a personal win
for me. Beating any of these guys at this level is a prized achievement.

11-- 17 0ct 'Strongmen of the Carribean'
8 four man teams from all corners of the world
will fight it out in St Maarten to see who is the
strongest. I will be in the Australian/pacific islander team along
side the huge Levi Vaoga [nz] and two all blacks.
We are also looking for the biggest islander strongman, Joe
Onasie to make a possible return, which would make us the
biggest team in the Carribean. A great advantage. We are all warriors
with fire in our bellies and ready for war, so beware of the islanders!!!
