Tower Hold

Athletes will stand on a raised platform with an implement underneath the platform. Athletes will have a bar in hand that is connected to the implement with a chain. Athletes will hold the weight in hand as long as possible. Athletes will not have to deadlift the weight- it will be raised to the athlete's preferred height and the weight released when time is started. 

Belts are allowed. No lifting straps.

The longest tower hold (man or woman) will go home with a 10' Hydra barbell or $500 cash from Bishop Barbell.

Circus Dumbbell Series

Athletes will have up to 60 seconds to lift 3 circus dumbbells from the ground to overhead. The weight will increase with each dumbbell. 2 hands can be used to clean the dumbbells to shoulder. Athlete must fully lock out each dumbbell overhead with one hand then wait for the judge's "down" command to lower the dumbbell and move on to the next one. Belts, wrist wraps, and elbow sleeves are allowed to be worn. The athlete with the fastest time pressing all 3 dumbbells will win this event.

We will be using a mix of Slater Monster Bells and Texas Power Concepts loadable circus dumbbells. For the women's weights, the 50 lb, 75 lb, and 100 lb weights will be TPC loadable circus dumbbells and the rest Slater Monster Bells. For the men's weights, the 85 lb, 160 lb, and 170 lb weights will be TPC loadable circus dumbbells and the rest Slater Monster Bells. 

Fingal's Fingers

Details soon.

Hammer Hold

Head to head event. Athletes will hold a hammer or similar implement straight out in front of their bodies for as long as possible. Arms must be locked out and the hammer must be held at a specified height in front of the athlete. Whoever holds the hammer up the longest wins this event.

Squat for Reps

Athletes will have 1 minute to complete as many reps as possible.

The athlete's time will start when athlete is under the bar and receives squat command from head judge.

Every rep will start with a squat command from the judge. The athlete will lower the axle bar down until both sides hit the box at the bottom and then they can return to the top. The next squat command will be given when judge sees athlete is fully locked out at the top.

The axle bar will be loaded with tires or another similar sized implement.

Box height for depth will be set at athlete weigh ins.

Belts, wraps, and sleeves are allowed. Squat suits and briefs are not allowed.

Athlete with most reps will win this event.
