good idea, but too easy to cheat.

Yeah, definitely...Hell, I would only weigh 130 or so for that one!

Is there going to be a weight class such as under/over 200lbs for this challenge?

I don't see how that could be enforced.

If you can't run with the big dogs - stay on the porch.

Sorry for asking "hero".  I geuss I'll have to gain another 100lbs to "run with the big dogs".  Without seperate weight classes, this competition is useless.

Is this a natural event? I don't see how it can be fair if you let a bunch of juiced up apes compete.

Honor system. See, the good people at Getbig.com have a 2 year history of putting on natural shows(Mr. Getbig). I see no reason to ruin the tradition.

You talking about Big Nations Youtube challenge? I am not sure if that one ever came to fruition.

Hmmm, I never follow the power lifting board but it rings a bell.

Here it is: http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=192641.0


And yes it was natural as far as I know. It was open to anyone on the board with 100+ posts, so a pro (unnatural) could have come in and cleaned up.


The point is to encourage people to push their personal limits and put a show on for GetBig. If you win some prizes along the way then cool, but if not then what did you lose by entering?


Everytime Im in a comp I am surrounded by a "bunch of juiced up apes" and you just cant let it affect your performance.

Absolutely not.  Mid to Late 2000-2001 was my last time...and I am contemplating it for teh future.

Well after a heavy bench workout going 600 for 4 reps Raw off a 3 board I managed to muster out 47 reps with 225. They were all legit locked out no bounces. At 40 my chest was burning so damn bad it was not funny. I wanted 50 I'll try it again on a Freash day without doing my heavy work first :)

 I've got til June 1st right?
