Wow... i was so excited... its like the whole of Singapore Mister Fits are all gathered there... saw quite alot of people from the gyms I go to... then there was competition for the public... and i was so excited and sign up for it!
This is the Challenge!

I was actually quite tired from my gym workout this morning... and this competiton requires a lot of thigh strength and back... and I did Deadlifts and Squats this morning! omg... but well..just give it a try... its $500!

The record was 1:34

So I was in position... anyway those who tried are all very big size la.... big tummy big biceps big chest big legs...all so big... but i am small compared to them... I think the public must be thinking... what is this guy doing here... haha... but its not the size that matters!

1...2...3... I took a deep breathe and Up... i squated like how I did squats this morning, and Lift it up like how i did my deadlifts... lol... and the time starts...

30 secs...

Got one uncle from the public was talking to be and i chit chat with him... he say Go! i give you 4min! You can do it!

1min...

Take a deep breathe... the uncle said... and people were cheering for me... very paiseh... :|

1:10...

My back is aching really bad now...

My Quads are trembling...

My Calves started to cramp...

1:20...

My legs are bending slightly...

1:26...

I bent my legs and was disqualified! =(

So close to the $500... just 8 more seconds!

the money I can use for World Peace and the balance I can go for a feast and blog it here loh... but nevermind... I did have fun... I really did... haha... I well try again next year... and those competitors for the real Strongman Challenge are really strong... *respect*

and this is what i got... the barrel scrap my skin when i dropped it... hope this doesn't spoils ur dinner... lol
