Well done Loz
Last year, Due to injury, Laurence acted as referee for the team strongman event this year he's injury free and teaming up with big Rob Frampton to compete for the title team strongman champions.
After his amazing performance in this years Britains strongest man final and his pending invite to Worlds Strongest Man Laurence is still going from strength to strength with a comfortable qualification today for the final of Britains most powerful man.
Heres Loz's write up on the day and the full results.
My aim 2day was 2get through with no injuries which is exactly what i did. I feel fine and will be back in the gym 2moro.
Farmers was quite easy as im feeling confidant with this event and just went in 4th gear for a safe run.
The log was rubbish by me but no excuses. i was hoping for 8 and did 8 but i was told i locked out just after the whistle, so only 7. no probs with the call as it was after the whistle. but a low 6th place.
Anvil carry, i got 2 go last (big advantage in this event) and did enough 2 win.
Deadlift 280kg for reps.
Went head 2 head with mick and just made sure i was one ahead. I had a good 3left in me if i needed them but as ive improved ive learnt 2 pace myself through the day rather than killing myself in every event.
last event was the stones, well done 2 wayne who has improved alot on this event. i was slow and steady but did them all.
some great performances by some of the guys 2day. Martin is looking much bigger and stronger, Richard has improved alot since i last saw him and if wayne holds back 10% he will be doing very well.
Ive got 2days of training ahead of me then im off 2 belurus on wed for a comp. (thanks Denny)
Looking forward to the final of this.
