Max Wagon Wheel Axle Deadlift, No STRAPS
Double-overhand grip is the only allowed grip. No hook grip, mixed grip, no overlapping the two hands, thumbs, or fingers. The weight of the implement must rest in the hands only. Incidental contact of the bar with the thighs is allowed as long as the weight of the implement is not supported by the thighs. No hitching, ramping, or rebending of the knees in such as way that the weight of the implement is supported by the legs is allowed.
Weights will increase by 20 for men. For women weights will jump by 10. All athletes can jump in at any time.
Wessel's rules. You will have 3 attempts to find your 1 Rep Max. 60 seconds per attempt. Fail at any weight and you are done. Down commands will be given on all deadlifts, once the athlete demonstrates control of the implement in a fully erect position (legs straight, ankles-knees-hips-shoulders stacked vertically). You must control the weight down to the floor as well.
No straps, suits, or knee wraps will be allowed. No tacky, or other adhesive or grip enhancing substance may be used.
Fingal Finger Clean and Press AMRAP
Finger will start on a pad about 18" off the ground you will pick the finger up in whatever manner best suits you and go all the way up to a full pressed and locked out position (think Viking press).
Once locked out the judge will give a down command and you will drop the finger back to the pad and pick it up and do it again. You do not have to set it down, once the down command is given you can drop it and then pick it back up again as quickly as possible.
You will have 60 seconds to complete as many reps as possible. Grip shirts and rubber gloves are allowed and suggested, some of you want a construction or bike helmet in this one too lol. No liquid tacky or pine tar type grip enchantments are allowed. Chalk, knee sleeves and elbow sleeves will be allowed as well.
Sand Bag toss for distance
No run up, no spinning windups (think discus). You can throw it one handed or two, over head, in front, from the side, whatever works best for you.
There will be a throwing line you must stay behind. if you step over the line that attempt will be a zero distance. You will get 3 attempts to throw it as far as possible.
Chalk, wrist wraps, and sleeves are allowed, no other grip enhancers of any kind.
Yoke carry to Sand bag load
50ft course, 60 second time limit. Competitor will begin on judge’s command. Yoke will be carried 50ft
Competitor will returns to start, lifts sandbag, runs 50ft back and loads over yoke. Time ends once sandbag is loaded over yoke. If the competitor fails to complete the event their distance will be measured.
Competitors will get to pick their own yoke height at weigh ins, once the height has been selected you can not change it, you will go in order of lowest to highest height for this event.
Grip shirts, belts, chalk, sleeves, wrist wraps are allowed.
Grip Genie Big PP one handed max hold for time
Grab the big PP around the shaft and hold as long as you can hahahaha.
Chalk is allowed, nothing else. Sorry, no spitting on it.
Time will start once standing locked-out (legs fully straightened, body upright and braced) and will stop when either one touches the floor.
