When's the next GS comp?

[Tom M-W]

Does anyone know when the next comp is? I like the idea of training towards a comp, etc.

Also, to the Melbourne Baths guys, would I be able to join you on comp days?

I'm pretty keen, I've managed to get my first pair of prograde bells, and a pair of weightlifting shoes, so I'm getting set up now. I'm focussing on LCCJ with the 16's and are training to get 80+ reps at the next comp / max rep test. I guess there is a max reps for the LCCJ, and then you move up a weight, probably around 90-100 reps! Although, the move up to the 24's is a big one!!!! I've got alot of work to do, I can't even keep them off the floor for 5 minutes at the moment!

All the best,

Tom

Hi Tom,

you would be more than welcome to come and compete at the Baths with us! The more the merrier. It's good fun being able to compete in a group - plus you get someone to count your reps for you. We were planning to have the next one weekend of the 9th of November - that's when the World Championships are being held. I think this date might be different from the next GSAA one because on that date many of the Baths crew will be doing Around the Bay in a Day. We can keep you posted via this forum, or if you want to pm me other contact details you can.

Tom I will be aiming for this one ; not an official GSAA comp but until we sort out the financial/legal issues , it is all there is for now.

The date is 6th December. I will be competing in Team Bogatir :wink:

I am toying with other ideas between now & then.

Cheers Paul and Emily,

I'll see what I can do for those dates,

Emily - Nov 9 sounds good, my wife and kids love a Melbourne weekend, so that should work no worries!!

Paul - I'll probably use the Dec. 6 comp as a hard training day.

I'll keep in touch,

Thanks Tom.
