    That stone carry at 27:05 was amazing! No way she was going to pick it up the conventional way, so she figured out a very unusual technique that worked for her, and she showed great determination to go as far as she did. It reminded me of something Novikov would do.

      Came to the comments at around 27:00 when she was struggling to say it felt a bit unfair to have (I think) an under-64 doing weights that even the opens are struggling with.
      Saw this comment, scrolled back up, and fuck me she's got it up and she's walking with it

    Dentist here. That sucks about Andrea's tooth. They have great dentists over there (though they are expensive). They can probably cement that bit back on as a temporary measure till she gets back home. Long term there is a risk of devitalisation (the tooth dying) in which case root canal treatment would be required. The tooth will be able to be repaired either with a composite build-up, a crown, or a veneer.

    Listening to Mitch talk about that leg press/arm-over-arm pull machine helped me confirm what I was already thinking while watching the women's attempt; their struggle didn't look like it was necessarily the weight. Rather, there appeared to be a different mechanical resistance, perhaps imparted through the machine's lack of maintenance. For example, possibly ungreased parts, rusty cogs, pulleys, levers etc. Anyone that's ever tried to perform a cable assisted movement on a dodgy piece of equipment in a gym will have an idea of what I'm on about here.

    • @vinnyvtec8722
      @vinnyvtec8722 Před rokem

      I know exactly what you mean. I can't afford new equipment and got given a cable machine for free from a policeman i know who got given it himself from the station when they updated their equipment. The cable sleeves are broken in places and even though I can 1 rep 120kg on my bench and do 20kg each hand dumbell flyes for 12reps X 3, I struggle on my machine doing 20kg combined on pec deck (that's 10kg on each arm) because it's not smooth and adds resistance on the rollers. Also doing the chest press on the machine is 90kg for full stack and that feels like 120kg

      Camilla Fogagnolo - I think there was some women who pulled out of the pro show and she got the last minute call up. She's an u64kg athlete, and actually weighed in at u64 because she competed in and won the amateur u64kg the next day and it's a 24h weigh in, so she most likely wasn't even fully rehydrated and carbed up. Megan is an u82kg competitor as well and got the call up last minute and won the u82s the next day.
