re: Arnold Strongman(and woman) Classic 2024 - Martin Licis AND Hafthor are back!

End of day 1: Thor is in first place, not surprised given the day #1 events are his strong suit, Hopper is right behind him and I expect he'll do well with the stones tomorrow. But Licis is very good with pressing and stones as well, so maybe he'll make up some ground tomorrow. I like this Singletary guy, don't know much about him. I've heard the name but haven't seen him compete much.

On the women's side I don't have much to say. On the one hand, I'm always very impressed by strong/athletic humans and the things they can do, so I am interested in watching women's strength events. On the other hand I'm a man and I can't resist grading them on their sex appeal to me, and as you know, competitive strongwomen are not going to win "those" kinds of contests. So as I watch the women I always find myself thinking about that aspect of the competitors. I'm still impressed with what these women can do, but that doesn't mean I'd take them out to the Red Lobsters anytime soon. (Well, I'd take Andrea Thompson out, she's cute and she could probably help me with my deadlift too)
