Time to start planning...I think we need to do it early July, so the only dates available are July 7(Sat) or 8(Sun) since the PL open is on Jul 1, and I might be away Jul 13 weekend.

Are we still doing it at JJC, or some place else like SWF perhaps?

the weekend of 13/14 July is bad for me too, so 8th is "ok" (despite my lack of training).

not sure about venue yet, can someone check with Sufian re: JJC, else we have to do it at SWF? Or shall we "break-in" Aldrin's new place heh...

I'm inclined to SWF because
1. I'm able to dump the barbell for deadlifts, which is great for my back
2. It's relatively central and easy to get to

However, there's only 1 wall mounted pullup bar and one in the power rack, so we'd have to do in waves.

OK Elliott actually can't make it that weekend as he's going back to Bangtown, so is everyone ok with the Saturday after that, i.e. Jul 14?

I thought Phing wasn't?

14th would be the last weekend for me...

I likely can't make 14th (corporate retreat); theoretically 14th is a half day... but the last time it was supposed to be a half day, we finished at 5.30pm...

so potentially very late on the 14th!

Hmmm,

Bryan prefers 14th coz he has softball on 7th.
Sufian prefers 7th, not sure if he can make 14th
Xian prefers 14th but can make 7th as well
Elliot can't make 7th as he's in Bangledash.

So...how now brown cow?

well, if we decide on 14th, theoretically I can do late afternoon. I'll leave it to you guys to decide on whether it's 7th or 14th. Or we can do one now, before Keith leaves, and we can do another a few weeks later for everybody else that couldn't make it.

SWF won't be open late afternoon though...have to do it at JJC or something

Update: 14-15 Sufian will be in Ipoh, so won't be able to make it, neither will JJC be available.

Argh...Keith! Delay your departure!

This was the video I was mentioning, probably very little usefulness for longer term applications, but interesting for those competing in events with weight classes, assuming the event is not the same day as the weigh-in
