Where do you find such a big tyre ?

Aiya in strongman contest as long as you lift it up but its good to have proper form to minimise injury.Originally posted by Marco_Simone:Yeah,I know my form is off coz of my rounded back...and I didnt realise it until I watched the videos after the whole thing...

It's actually 247kg
btw nice job, that came up easy for you -
according to physics,
the amount of force you lifted up would be around 125 kg
which means around 2 20kg plates + 1 2.5kg plate on each side of a 20kg barbell and doing a deadlift...
It's not a lot, but it's definitely hard when you try to
1) play with the tire
2) do it with so much ease as Macro
Btw, nice arms
I can foresee OPT.... Lift up the tire, not just flipping

It doesn't work that way if you flip the tire the way it's meant to be flipped. If you try to deadlift it, then yes, the very initial vertical movement will require about a 125kg deadlift, but due to my injury I'm currently only deadlifting way less than 100kg, yet I too am able to flip the tire. It doesn't go up as fast as when Ben does it, but I'm not exactly struggling to get it moving either.
btw you missed 2 10kg plates in your calculations -
your body looks gross.

This is for the naysayers who come to this forum and cause trouble-we moderators practice what we preach and we are definitely not too shabby in the size and strength department...

20kg barbell.... + 2 x 2 of 20kg plates each side + 2x 2.5kgOriginally posted by galapogos:It doesn't work that way if you flip the tire the way it's meant to be flipped.

20kg + 80kg + 5kg = 125kg...
Got miss meh? -
You should look at my fellow flippers today-Keith and Kacie...I am considered lean when I stand beside them...Originally posted by missqi:your body looks gross. -
Just like Simon looked small when standing beside the Singapore strong man and when wearing a big big shirt...Originally posted by Marco_Simone:You should look at my fellow flippers today-Keith and Kacie...I am considered lean if I stay beside them...
Just a question: Do people need to show off that you trained hard? Sometimes we train for health, for personal goals, for fitness....
Btw your arms how many inches ah? -
Yes,come on we have to admit that we train for showing off...it just varies "to what extent" in each individual...Originally posted by eagle:Just like Simon looked small when standing beside the Singapore strong man and when wearing a big big shirt...

My arms are 16.25 inches.

Me train for the sake of not being too fat. No need too big too, but sufficient... (i know hard to define what is meant by sufficient).Originally posted by Marco_Simone:Yes,come on we have to admit that we train for showing off...it just varies "to what extent" in each individual...
Showing off? Just a added bonus...
But me not that stage yet... Still cutting tummy fats after a Europe trip... Hard though when cannot even get enough sleep sometimes -

You think? Pull out a calculator and punch those numbers in and see if they're right...aren't you an engineering major?Originally posted by eagle:20kg + 80kg + 5kg = 125kg...

Your village called, they want their idiot back. Shoo.Originally posted by missqi:your body looks gross. -
lying on your tummy to make it flatter is a new for me.Originally posted by galapogos:Your village called, they want their idiot back. Shoo. -

I am sure your ANEROXIC body will look even more pathetic after going through the stupid ANEROXIC diet that you posted in another thread.Originally posted by missqi:your body looks gross.
That diet kills your muscles and leaves you with nothing but fat.
Dont think you are not fat just because you dont LOOK fat.
