Balance is an issue exponentially moreso the further past bodyweight you lift so your experiences will be different at big weights Paul.

What are your best push press and jerk numbers on a bar?

Think is 120kg push press on bar, cant remember, never really did jerks on bar. Main issues for me with log are keeping the log set on my chest/shoulders in position and how tight my lats are to lockout my arms.

I know but if oly lifters can get 200k to balance above head on a shaky oly bar at lighter bodyweights then it shouldnt be an excuse for 150kg or whatever on a log or axle.

On the contrary, it is easier to fit a 28mm diameter barbell within the centre of gravity of a person than it is a 12 inch diameter log. Not so much difference on an axle. Nothing shaky about an oly bar, at least not on a horizontal plane.

120 push press on a bar and "Never really did jerks on a bar," and you seriously think you will jerk 150kg log? At 90-odd kg BW?

I don't want to be a hater and say you won't reach your goals, but do you fancy a wager? £50 says you won't do 130kg on the log at sub-100kg BW before the end of next year. I would bet everything I own on you not doing 150!

I hope you prove me wrong, but you'll probably be back boxing next week anyway...

Deal done! Thanks!

We can extend it to the 150kg log if you want too?

Well i don't know how much you own but that would be a pretty crazy bet, anything could happen to stop me doing it and 150kg is a lot of weight to do on a log at that kind of weight with my height. Not up for that.

Awesome, accepted. So the bets 130kg (or over of course) log at under 100kg bodyweight by the end of next year for £50 - anyone else?
