It is and it isn't. Right on the county line. We are Piako/Waikato for local government and services, Waikato zoned in the phone directory (lumped in with Matamata and Mortinsville) and Coromandel electorate for voting!!!<br />
<br />
All local sports clubs (from junior through to senior) either play in the Waikato or Valley! For example last year my son competed in both the Valley and Waikato regional athletics meets! He also played in the Waikato wide Yr 5/6 Cricket competition and the Valley 7th Grade rugby comp.<br />

Dmitry Klokov according to the clip. Just happened to see 250kg front squat in my videos list and took a look

[Red Beard]

How is that Olympian shot putter going to fare fro the Rebels mate? Have you heard much about his rugby progress?

[NTA]

Not much. There was an article talking about his desires and his efforts to trim down from 130+ but not much else. He's not listed in the full player squad so doubt we'll see much of him the next couple of years. Don't think he's got a rugby background but he's young, strong and being put through the pathways:<br />

I reckon you should change up for a month RB - hit some high rep stuff - 12-20 rep range. You body won't know what hit it. You may have to lower the weight a touch though.

[Paekakboyz]

yeah a surprise attack of higher reps/lower weight will be fun. Go for the speed and power approach. Then you look to introduce that speed into your heavier workouts.
