Fat Chance Fitness and Texoma Strength are teaming up to host the first Country Strong Powerlifting Competition. There will be food trucks, an atlas stone over bar side competition, arm wrestling for fun, and a DJ to keep the energy high. The event is indoors and follows traditional powerlifting rules (see below). We will be using a monolift with the Texas Squat Bar for the squat, TSS Combo Rack and EliteFTS Power Bar for bench, and the Rogue Ohio Deadlift Bar for deadlifts.

Full power, push/pull, bench only, deadlift only

Raw, single ply, multi ply

Register before June 30th to receive special early bird pricing.
