"Pretty sure Zydrunas will come out on top (again), his overhead pressing power is truly awesome."
And sure enough, he sets a new world record! That look in his eyes before attempting the lift was pure intensity. |

"I remember Geoff Capes when I was a kid"
I've watched a few of his tournaments from the 80s when he had a rivalry with Jon Pall Sigmarsson and Bill Kazmeier, they were amazing. |

Do you get annoyed because you are short? |

Shorter guys generally tend to have the advantage in static events like Deadlifting, Squatting and Pressing due to not having to move the weights through such a range of motion as taller guys, who are favoured in more mobile events like the Super Yoke and loading events.
Atlas Stones are an interesting one though as theoretically, a shorter man will have an easier time lifting the stones up, whereas taller guys should find it easier to load them. |

I see the Farmer's Walk every week when I'm shopping. There is always some guy, and it is always a guy, who decides to dispense with the trolley just outside the store and carry 7 bags 200 yards to his car. Bottles of pop, sacks of spuds, 2 ton of coal, my weeks' supply of Kiplings, it makes no odds, they will still walk there with all this stuff.  |

Sounds a bit like the Yorkie advert. |
