Lift of the Quarter

Results for the period ending Sep 30th, 2009

Woking’s Chet Morjaria topped the Brits with a Left hand Dead Lift of 135 kg at a B Wt of 66.8.

Brian Hamill was down in about 27th place but bettered Jeff Fearon, another over 70 regular. Woking remain top club. Woking Power are 3rd in the club rankings.

To liven the scheme up, Brian has persuaded Tony Cook of the Strength Athletes’ Guild to add performances in their schemes.

Up pops Sam Dube, a Canadian medical student in the World rankings at number one with Chet relegated to 3rd in the globe! James Register, also from Woking, ranked 4th world wide. These rankings use a formula, the Lynch, which may be fairer than the simple % of bodyweight we use.

The current Lift of the Quarter is the two hands Clean and Press with barbell. I have been told that a bunch of Devon Powerlifters will be joining in. My money is on one of the Chea brothers winning, and that Chris Chea will be Britain’s Best All Rounder for 2009. Who says Woking lifters are all technique and no strength!
