Parents: My biggest concern is safety of your child. If the weight is to heavy, please tell the loaders and it will be reduced. This is for the children to learn, have fun, and introduce them into our sport. Also, if you believe your child will not be challenged by the weight please tell us and we will make the decision together for the next weight. I split the age groups different this time in order to get a better challenge and weights for the kids. 

Event 1: Yoke Walk 20ft for time

We will be building a yoke for the littles out of wood, weights will be pending until its built. 

I have 1 yoke that is 125lb empty and another 150lb empty. 

Kids will start under the yoke, lift, and then given the start command. The front of the yoke only needs to cross finish line. 

Age group 15 to 19 will go 30ft.

Event 2: Log for Reps 30 seconds 

We will be creating a log out of pvc for the littles. Iron Monkey Garage will be providing a kid log that weighs 35lbs. I have 2 10 inch logs that are 60lbs, a 12 inch log that weighs 125lb this will be for the bigger boys. 

Athletes will start with hands on the log, time starts, as many reps as possible from the chest. They can put in down and pick it up as needed within the 30 seconds. Age group 15 to 19 will get 1 minute for reps and down commands. 

Event 3: Sandbag over bar 

3 Sandbags over the yoke. The yoke will be set at the kids upper stomach. 

Athlete will start with hands on the bag,  put bag over bar, and continue to next bag for all 3. 

Event 4: Tire Deadlift for reps 30 sec

Age group 15 to 19 will have 1 min. 15 to 19 must wait for the down command (gotta get them ready) 

Athlete will be given the go command and reps will be counted no down command for 14 and younger 

Event 5: Harnessed Sled Drag 20 ft 

Athlete will be harnessed in, drag the sled to the end. The athlete must cross the finish line not the sled. 

15 to 19 year will drag for 30ft.
