It hasn't but it has been up for some time - Martin sent me the link about two weeks ago. It was part of his training for the LGC comp.

Remarkable! I see you broke the world record - that's a hell of a job! Congrats.

Not quite. Several comments have been made about WR this and that. While I don't agree with them there are conditions in place. Martin also claimed that he did manage to hit a workout where he did 2 x 1 with 115-kilos. At the Peter Horne memorial event I think Dave got air under a 116-kilo attempt. Both David and Nick have pulled 115-kilos on the plank pinch and both have pulled 109-kilos unofficially (as the lift above is). It remains to be seen whether or not MS decides (as per my quote elsewhere) that an event where only 4 competed (he suggested it's not proper unless 5 or more are lifting) but several dropped out last minute (which he said might be ok for a record to be 'official') is ok for the lift of 111-kilos as performed at the LGC to be the new WR.

One other condition is calibration of weights. On several of Martins videos he is at Arne's gym using their calibrated set. The above lift is on a non-calibrated set.

No worries. It's all a pain in the butt but regardless it is and was one hell of a lift. It'd have been great to see the session you did 2 x 1 with the same weight. My best repped session was what I did today - 93.5 x a total of 6 singles. I am aiming for a similar session with 100kg and doubling 115 is a way off for me.

Nice, congrats!

I'll post a vid when I reach some more weight, I don't like that you are closing in on me! :P

Nice numbers guys. Calibrated or not, still a nice lift. Looking forward to seeing more vids.
