got a mate that is part of her team - was saying she's got her chin ups to 30 @ 100kgs.. so her body weight with 35kgs strapped on
Yeah I’m going to have to call bs on that one. I’m sure she has some impressive stats but that’s taking the piss.
Indeed. I’m sure it’s actually 30 unaided ( which again is strong as fuck ) or perhaps three with 35kg, certainly not 30 with more than half her weight attached.
I’m not denying she’s anything less than an absolutely world class athlete at what she does but let’s be realistic.
Yeah I can buy 30 unaided (which is crazy good for a woman)but 30 with an extra 35kg is bs.
Sexist pig. I hope someone bans you.

Although they do the same at every other sport too so I guess you can't really call it 'moneyball'. Not sure what the rest of the schedule is like but they're holding onto their lead at the top of the leaderboard pretty handily at the moment.
Say what you like about communism, but by god it turns into medals.

@crucial Tanner will be disappointed with that. Trapped near the back for most of the race and never got a run until it was too late.
Unless you've got an absolute cannonball finish, you can't afford to hit the final straight 10 metres back.

I never get that. You work for years for this shot then sit back. Have a fucking crack if no one else is going to.

Just ask the Germans. East Germany won 35 gold in 1988. Germany currently has 6 I think. They’ve gone from about 12 gold in the pool to 1 bronze.

Just an Olympic record, even with easing off at the end

Willis might squeeze into next round
didn't show much in the straight. He's either confident of time, or he doesn't have it
