Bro tell me you're doing the same hair for your next show! lol... if you can then you'd be the only guy who's gassed and done shows 10 years apart who isn't sporting a bald dome... you modelled that hair after Bros right?

As promised about two months ago.
2000 Nationals at Michael Fowler

Quality isnt good due to conversion etc but still worthy.
Commentary is a bit sad as well especially when they forget the judges names..

“Today I will lift what you will not so that tomorrow I will lift what you cannot.”

"there is no reason to be alive if you can't squat"

Those who complain about the taste of protein drinks are 10 x more likely to be pussies in the gym!!

Awesome trip down memory lane there Gasp! I was surprised at how I looked having not seen that for nearly 10 years. Could I get a copy of the original tape?

I'll sort out a DVD of the 2000 Nationals for you Nate.
Sadly my apprentice taped it and he missed the Masters and juniors.
(For the record Gasp 2nd and NZMM 2nd too! :grin: )
Are you at the BBro next weekend? if so I'll give it to you then.
Theres also hilarious bit of commentary for one of the figure classes which I'll have to post up tomorrow.

I might have to come down, Wa asked me to manage the platform but I have the kids. Is NZMM competing? Bench only? Be good to catch up again Gasp - PM me ur digits & I'll txt & let you know if I'm heading down. Was going to tee up a training session with Supry at some stage as well - could work, plus Lisa would be keen to go shopping! :grin:

Nothing! :lol:

Anyway, if you're going to compete again, bring the conditioning or even better. Most people don't even come close to that conditioning on a New Zealand stage

Thats Darren Farrow (ex Palmy, ex Chch, now Akld). Other guy is Kerry O'Brien from Dunedin.

LOL - all I know is both Darren & myself will be a lot bigger! I saw him in Akld a while back & he said he was keen to compete in 2012.

Thanks bro, but I know I've got to be harder in 2012 :nod:

Bit of an update from Chch Grand Prix...
Made it on stage at 93ish kg so approx 8kg heavier than Nationals in 2000. Didn't place anywhere great but was happy with where I was at after a 12 year absence. Nationals will be a different beast!!!
