Anyone up for a comp to keep up motivation

[jimmy]

-anyone up for a challenge for 2013? I train at home by myself and a fair way from any comps / PTC type gyms etc - I find the motivation is certainly hard to keep.
Just wondering if anyone is up for a challenge in 2013 as to how many KGs they can add to their total? I'm thinking squat (below parallel) bench (touch and go) and dead lift. Test all three now, then at the end of every three months with the grand final at the end of the year.
Maybe have a little bet on it - lottery tickets or something?
Anyway If anyone's keen, let's hear about it. - Harry and wingman, you're two I'm keeping an eye on!

Wingman - 140/80/180 - 400kg @ 98 = 234.54 gloss

I'd be keen.

 

[Brick]

In

 

[wingman]

I tested all 3 lifts a couple days ago at 140/80/180 for 400 at 98. Are we going for numerical or percentage increase?

 

[Zoot]

Or glossbrenner increase (absolute, not percentage) to open it up to men & women, light & heavy?

 

[jimmy]

My thoughts would be to make it % based, (might keep it a bit fairer for lightweights vs. heavyweights)?

 

[wingman]

Compile a list first with entrants total and bodyweight. At the end of 2013 we'll do the same and use those methods as tiebreakers.

 

[Sticky]

Yeah gloss increase would be best.

 

[jimmy]

Righto, gloss increase sounds like the go.
Currently: 110, 105, 150 at 85kg

 

[lkt004]

I'll post my final 100% raw numbers next weekend ish.

Did you miss the first post?

 

[lkt004]

Should make a new topic and everyone put in their current gym and/or comp lifts in kg and Gloss brenner score. Update whenever they increase. I don't think there should be any prizes or anything, unless there needs to be video proof.

 

[jimmy]

Ok, looks like there's a bit of interest, here's the rules:
1. Current lifts to be in by new years eve.
2. Updates to be posted at the end of each 3 month period (march, June, September, December)
3. Whatever gear is used when posting your first total is to be used in posting the final total. Ie can't post starting total raw then finishing total with belt and wraps
4. Squat below parallel, bench touch and go, deadlift no hitching
5. Increase in gloss Brennar to decide winner
6. Winner to post video for confirmation
-if competitors are keen for a small wager to add a bit more interest I suggest that the winner of each three months block gets $10 or $20 put into their bank account by all the other competitors. If anyone doesn't pay by a week after they are out.
-if everyone wants to just do it for funsies that's cool!

 

[harry1970]

I'm in, I'll be competing at a novice comp in February anyway so this will be fun.

120/90/180 @ 89kgs

 

[Zoot]

Well organized jimmy. I'm in

 

[jimmy]

Ok, should be a bit of fun! I'll start updating the original post with everyone's current lift and gloss points.
As added incentive I am personally going to give the overall winner (hopefully it will be me!) a $100 voucher to be used at no bull supplements or bulk nutrients as first prize.
