I’m sure running wsm is very much a feet of engineering and as such I don’t have many criticisms at all. My only wish is that I could watch it the same way I watch all the other major and minor events because the TV production itself isn’t great compared a giants live stream or rouge etc

You know a lot of fans were tuning into the mertyl…

Well done Adam. You’re putting yourself in a great spot for the deadlift champs such an intelligent calculated move to pull out at that point, something that only a seasoned/level headed pro would do – thinking about long term success!

Bit of a shake up this year even though Mitch won.

Did you hear any chatter about next year and renewing…

Hey Adam,

Congratulations on placing at wsm and looking forward to seeing you at world’s or rather, watching the spreadsheet and highlights – I hear the TV deal is up this year maybe they can stream next year.

You seemed a bit leaner at Brits than previous comps – was this the case?

Watching the Arnold right now.

Hi Adam,

What dictates this change in assistance reps and what are you trying to achieve with each?

Bar weight is 180kg I’d imagine total chain weight will add 40kg

Hi Adam, hope you’re well.

How would you peak for an Apollon wheel deadlift w/ chains. Reps in 60’s. 9” pull from block?

First comp in about 12 weeks. I’ve been doing paused snatch grip deadlifts for this acc phase, I don’t fancy doing them again, they’re disgusting. I find deadlifting extremely taxing and I’m getting old so recovery is a bit janky.

Where are you pinning the petides, as close as possible?
You any good a chess?

Great performance! I had you touching podium this year. With all the injuries you’ve had and still coming even stronger/faster – Impressive!

I’m hearing the platform was uneven (on sand) is this what led to injury?

Keep it up – can’t be a strongman without a strong mind – so don’t let the setbacks, set you back!

It’s probably to early to know…
