Feats of Raw Strength
Event 1
Farmers Carry- 100 feet distance. Athletes can't touch implement until the "Go" command. Athlete will have 30sec upon "Go" command to pick the farmers handles and walk 100 ft with unlimited drops. If unable to pick up the farmers in 30sec you will zero on the event. Time cap for completion of the 100ft is 60sec. ENTIRE Implement must pass the line. Wrist wraps, sleeves, belt, chalk OK. No straps, tack/tack towel/tack spray
Event 2
Log Press and Away- Athletes have 60 seconds to complete as many repetitions as possible. A press will be considered good when the athlete shows control of the implement with it locked out overhead, with shoulders, hips, and knees stacked. A “down” command will be given when the judge determines the lift complete. Log will be a clean and press away, athlete may set log down in between reps if they choose. No built-up belt or resting the implements on a belt during the clean. Athletes can use wrist wraps, elbow sleeves, belts, grip shirts. No Tacky.
Event 3
Car Deadlift- Athletes will have 60 seconds to complete as many repetitions as possible. Facing the judge the athlete will be allowed to take their grip before time starts and will be given a “down” command once the athlete is at the top of the lift, showing control with hips and knees locked out and shoulders back. Handles are a neutral grip at a height of 16in. Athletes can use wrist straps, belts, knee sleeves. Equipment not allowed is deadlift suits, grip hooks, tacky. Feet need to be covered as this will be outside.
Event 4
Husafell Stone Carry- Max distance with a 2 minute time limit. Athlete will carry the stone down 50 feet and must have one foot touch or cross the line before coming back down 50 feet. No drops allowed, distance stops after the first drop. Grip shirt allowed. No tacky.
Event 5
Stone Over Bar- Athletes will have 60 seconds to complete as many reps as possible. For the start position athlete will begin with hands on the bar and indicate when ready before being given the start command. Just pick it up and pop it over the crossbar. Grabbing the crossbar and pulling yourself to it as a means to get the stone over the bar will result in the repetition not being counted and continued use of this technique may result in disqualification by the judges. Athletes can use belts (any metal buckle must be turned to the back), tacky towels, chalk, grip shirts, tacky is allowed.
Women- 48in
Men- 52in
