The New European Champion is.........

Hi Friends

Just thought I'd update you after my return from Switzerland last night. Well, it was an eventful four days - especially trying to get used to the cost of everything; using the hotel gym even cost £10 per session! I guess the investment must have been sorta worthwhile as you are now talking to the New European Champion, as well as the New equipped world record holder! ( It helps when you have a equipped-lift suit that doesn't try to make you sing falsetto when you wear it!) I'd like to thank all of my family, friends, my coach & other well wishers for their ongoing support & encouragement - this gave me the boost to go out there & get those results. More stories to follow soon!

More Power Press for Larry

Hello friends

I was lucky enough to have his great article in a local newspaper following my Mens Health spread - all exposure is very welcome as I countdown towards my trip to Switzerland & the Euro Championships. Watch this space!

Big Up from BDFPA!

Hello once again,

I thought I'd take a few lines just to say a big 'thank you' to Mark Norton of the British Drug Free Powerlifting Association (BDFPA) ; Mark called me up today & commented positively after seeing the MH article & how he felt it promoted the sport in such a favourable light. This feedback is very much appreciated, as one of the main reasons I had for doing the article was to spotlight drug free powerlifting as a sport, and endorsement from the BDFPA is a pleasing acknowledgement indeed.

NEWS FLASH: Larry Gets 6-Page Spread in Top Mens Fitness Magazine

Hi friends

I am very pleased to announce that Mens Health Magazine has published a great 6-page feature article in its May edition, featuring little old me! Some of you who read the blog regularly may recall that in February I announced that I had done an in depth interview with a well known fitness magazine, which at the time had to be kept under wraps to avoid 'spoilers' from other mag's. So, I am really proud to have been featured so prominently in such a respected international magazine, which I hope will give readers a detailed insight in my world of drug free powerlifting, as well as raising the profile of the sport in general. So, for further details, check out pages 142-147 in the May edition of Mens Health! I hope to get the ok to post some or all of it here in due course (for those who are too tight to buy the mag!)

(PS- a big thanks to Dan 'The Man' Jones at Mens Health Magazine)
