WHoo hoo!! 
great job!!..but OW. Your back looks ouchie! no hot showers for a while i guess :{
Way cool :)!COOLER IF YOU HAD VIDSā¦sighā¦next time!
wait, they might have taken vids of you at the eventā¦ The one i did had some professional photographer that taped events, kinda like the ones at the meets where you can request pictures of youāshould you want em. hint hint
Awesome PMPM, congrats. Sounds like you had a good first experience. Just so you know, a natāl level show will typically have implement weights that are more appropriate to the class, which should cut down ont eh speed/beastliness problem. Nationals is at Harrahās casino in tunica MS, Nov 4-5 this year adn we could always use some more womens competitors
Very cool. Really enjoyed your writeup. Strongman is one event I would not excel at seeing as how there are no weight classes.

Yeah, they said this one was pretty much designed to get more new competitors and itās the lightest one of the year. Still, Iāve decided to increase my speed and use more formal strongman training as a conditioning/cross training for PLing.
Iāll have to qualify for Nats to get thereā¦and dammit, I decided to do strongman because I am not going to PLing nats! This could maybe be another addiction, but I really just think it is fun - not an obsession like PLing.

Yeah, itās definitely not a small person sport. We were all within an inch of one another in terms of height, but our weights were probably 140-190. My height and short levers, which help so much in PLing, are definitely not to my advantage in strongman. The box for the stones is high for me - chest level - whereas for some of the men, itās closer to their waists.
Love the write-up PMPM, and nice to read about it from a womanās perspective. I was giving it some thought after seeing the guyās at my gym a couple weeks ago. Sounds like a lot of fun 
re tacky - the guys were keeping serious goopage on their hands for extra. Also the guys wearing loose pants and basketball shorts (that stuck to the ball) were increasing the friction like mad. Were you wearing tight pants/shorts?
Congrats PMPM, impressive first showing
Frenchie, I wore not-tight-but-not-loose mid-thigh cotton/spandex shorts, and tucked my shirt tight up into the back so it wouldnāt stick to the stones. Not really an issue, since I was the first one up and the stones were clean-ish, but I can see how it would be a problem.
The spot on my back from the yoke is peeling, I love disgusting shit but this is really fucking disgusting.
You cannot look pretty while doing stones.
Sweeeet!
I think your on to something here 
still jealous
Pure awesomeness PMPM ! Your writeup was great and very informative. congrats on the stones, I couldnāt imagine being 5ā0" and getting a stone up on the platform. And Iāve heard there is definitely a technique for lapping stones.
Strong is SSssssssoooooooooOOOOOO Sexy!
great fun, PMPM~

At a big enough show there are. I believe LWs are under 140, MWs are 140-160 (or 165?) and HWs are anything over that. Local shows may only have a handful of women so theyāll combine it all, but typically if a promoter can get 3 LWs and 3 MWs/HWs theyāll have 2 classes, and if they can get 3 of each theyāll have every class
MW is 165ā¦hence my reasoning for wanting to get there. I guess itās a mental thing for meā¦I donāt want to be considered a āheavy weight.ā
EYAH!!! Nice shot! So are you going to do the one in May? Its in ft collins :{
The May one doesnāt have a womenās class. There is one in June that does.
that one in june has powerlfiting, stringman, bodybuilding and mma too? the link had this link to see infoā¦It looks like its going to be a big thing
Yeah, I donāt know what all they are going to have. I donāt think the PL is USAPL with that one, I figure Iād have heard about it by now if it is.

I respectfully disagree
