Elizabeth Horne pinches 2 x 20k discs with one hand

26 July 2009
Elizabeth's skin had healed from her last pinch attempt on the 2 x 20k discs, and so after armwrestling training she had a go for the photos and videos.

She did 5 lifts.
Lift 1. One photo from this lift

Lift 2. Photo wasn't good from this lift.
Lift 3. This is videod, so no photos as I couldn't video and take photos at the same time. The video will be on youtube soon.
Lift 4. I got 3 pics from this lift as she did a 4 second hold at the top. 2 pictures attached to the email (photo below).
Lift 5. Had the cheek to go for a 3 finger and thumb Pinch, and lifted it an inch or so.

Elizabeth has been dieting, and is now down to 79.5k today (has lost 10k!), so today's lift was half her bodyweight. Her aim has been to get into the 80k Class for the World Armwrestling Champs in Italy, and now she is there.

very good lifting & dieting....

fantastic princess real female warrior you should be so proud mr dave horne:D

Elizabeth says many thanks!

Here's the video.


David

well done good footage...

Incredible, about 10 times stronger than me

Is Elisabeth the first woman to complete this feat David? If not surely it's a very very short list!

Yes she's the first, and will probably be the only for quite a long time, as her Pinch strength is far, far superior to most strongwomen and equals many strongmen.

I've heard about this lift so many times but never actually seen it. Impressive stuff.

I met Elizabeth at this years Arm Wars at the Trafford Centre and had a couple of wrestles with her, she felt very strong and had relentless stamina.

Excellent show of hand strength here.

Martin.

how does she manage to smile at the top part of the left i would be shaking like a ...... ha gd lifting

Fantastic strength sport family credit to everyone

Elizabeth says many thanks for all your kind comments!
