Yeah but it's a jerk not a snatch

That bench video is hilarious

Scuba Ste · 06-04-2011 9:45pm

Yeah, happened at this year's Arnolds. Here he is c&jing 211. Squat jerk always freaks me out.

You can see Pat Mendes compete in that vid too. 175/207. Wonder if we'll see a 200+ snatch from him in competition any time soon.

What kinda numbers does he need to be hitting to qualify for the american team for london assuming he decides to go that way?Im assuming he has hit them already in training and it's just a case of entering them in a comp?Not too sure how the qualifying process works..

Not too sure either. He had the fourth best sinclair at the Arnold's so I presume he's there or there abouts and you'd assume he has a bigger total to come too.

Here's the US rankings so far for this years world's. Mendes is second at the moment. I'd say it would be a lot clearer at the end of the year.

With a rotator cuff issue I think.
Jon North looking good in the 94 div, he's not far off breaking the american snatch record. Needs to add maybe 7kg

Losing it with Jillian - amazing show. Fake reality TV featuring Jillian Michaels screaming abuse at fat people until they cry.

Who cares if it reenforces their belief that excercise =mysery? Its makes good TV.

Remmy · 10-04-2011 10:45am

She sure is one crazy b]tch.I wonder is the bigger motivation for the biggest loser contestants to lose weight so that they can catch her and eat her.

gymsoldier · 10-04-2011 3:17pm

"Thank" this post if you also hate DOMS :mad: Im in bits, stupid sore latissimus dorsi.

Is 20 too late to start BJJ/Muay Thai/Judo/Boxing? (Sorry, I don't really know the difference right now) Not planning on fighting, but everyone I know that does it has been doing it since a very early age.

College work and exams must be suppressing my inner monkey.

Absolutely not I started training in BJJ at 22 and haven't looked back and am loving it more ever since I started! I encourage you start. You won't regret it!

God damn. Not wishing violence on anyone, but if one of them did eat her in one gulp, live on TV, I think I'd be ok with it. Wagon!

is it too late? F*ck no. I started it in January at 24 and got a silver in the IP Submissin Wrestling Tournament last weekend. Like anything, you'll get out of it what you put into it.

Jon Jones startedMMA when he was 20 (he was a wrestler in highschool, but you see my point)

I'm confused, was it not the case that Iran wanted to boycott?
But decided not to?

Didn't hear they're back in. Delighted if they are.

Iran are still competing, despite the IOC rejecting their demands to change the logo. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12724166

Thats grand so.
Everything is normal.

Bar that snivelling heel Cameron, who should really just shut up in general.
