Have you gotten any more names in yet Mike? Yep. Chuck Carns is in. Still working on Michelle. Goody says he expects about 5 - 10 from the crossfit camp. Apparently they have a huge regional crossfit comp that the top guys are going to that day. But a few peeps have told him they will be there. I think we will end up with 12-18 total, which will be a nice little comp. You're out. That fake Canadian check you sent bounced. Actually, the ATM wouldn't take it. Need to run it into the bank this weekend. So we have: Brent Barbe Mary-Ann McKeague Bobby Goodfellow Mike Rinderle Melissa Rinderle Lindsey Rinderle Mike Krahling Parris Janusek Tommy Heslep Jason Steeves Chuck Axle Carns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We drill for oil, mine, cut down trees,grow crops and eat a lot of 4 legged critters over here in Alberta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chuck Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Yeah, yeah, I'll be there And from the looks of that list and how awful my pinch has been lately, Im gonna end up square in last place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico300zx Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Goody, what happened to you? I've been hammered with school lately myself, but I still get 1 or 2 workouts a week. Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Goody, what happened to you? I've been hammered with school lately myself, but I still get 1 or 2 workouts a week. Rico Goody has been injured (back). So was I for two months (elbow). Now I spend all my time on squats, deadlifts, presses and bending. No time or desire for grip. I think I'll still do OK. You're the odds on favorite to win Parris. Everyone else is fighting for a distant 2nd place finish. Just don't let the pressure of being #1 get to you brother.

bencrush Posted April 20, 2010 Share Posted April 20, 2010 You still going to have 1" vbar as an event? I saw some posts back that you were taking votes and it looks like quite a few were voting for it to be gone. I think with your overall strength increases you'll be looking strong at the contest and hitting some very good performances despite not training grip in quite a while. Here's something to shoot for on the vbar. Dave Thornton and I both pulled 351 pounds on the FBBC 1" vbar at the 2006 Backyard Bastard Bash, after 5 previous events. You can do it too! And heavier.

Definitely still having 1" vbar Ben. Not sure about 351 at this point. Definitely want to do over 300. I think Barbe is going to be close to 400. Ended up not dropping any events. The only big change we made was to make the axle lift reps in a minute with 300 instead of max weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pressure, what pressure, I haven't done any training but one time in the last 6 weeks. School and kids are stripping me of everything I've worked for. And finals are on the 7th so hmm I wonder how much ill get to train till then. Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico300zx Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I'm going to bring a couple 20lb sledge heads that I had up for trade if anyone is interested let me know. And perhaps a few other small items. Does anyone have anything they would like to get rid of? Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I have a few things I will be looking to trade or sell. If everyone could bring any calibrated grippers they have, that would be a big help. We have a pretty good spread, but there are a few holes. Thanks.
