    You have to read this - Graham Hicks pulled 470kg, did nearly a 2hr meet and greet after the comp. I bumped into him after the comp around 11pm, I asked him could I get a photo and I’ve never meet such a humble , nice man. He still took the time to take a photo with me and even his lovely wife Kim offered to take the photo. Even tho he was wrecked, he was still smiling and took the time to chat with me, what a man . Proud hicks fan 👏👏👏

  • @blaineharrison01
    @blaineharrison01 Před 10 měsíci +6

    I think for 2 days after pulling 470 and actually getting 505 off the ground, the fact that you can still strict press a 180 log shows that if you decided to go for the WR log, you have a good chance for it. Like you say, never say never though it would be class to see!

    We never get sick of the gibberish! 😂
    When you say routine what is the training split you end up aiming for?
    My current split is Tuesday strict Press, Wednesday Front Squat, Friday log Press, Sunday deadlift and moving Events.
    Would you see any major issues with that split?

    • @TheHixxy1985

      @@TheHixxy1985 many thanks for your reply Graham.
      With me having knee issues for the past 22 years I've always debated ditching Squats as a main lift altogether and seeing if that would help my other lifts but I've never actually found out.
      I love how in your videos you show what you do for mobility before lifting.
      I struggle to get my knees loosened up for Log Press. What do you do for that as you have such a nice Squat on your log cleans.
