Shit, I had to dig deep to find this old thread :)

Made a log press of 92.5kg on Saturday. Getting closer. I now think bodyweight log overhead by end of the year is defo nailable.

Another update Broncotableman :) 95kg on log press today. Getting ever closer to bodyweight, though I fear there is not too much more in there for a wee while now!
