Welcome to the Tri-Cities Strongman Showdown 2024!!!

We have five events lined up to test athletes this year.

Axle Clean and Press for Reps-  

Athlete will have 60 seconds to complete as many reps as possible from the ground to overhead lockout (clean & press each rep).  Athletes will receive a lift command and time will start.  Athlete will proceed to clean the axle to the shoulders and then Press overhead.  A successful attempt will require the athlete to have elbows locked and feet square.  Athletes will then be given a good lift command and must return the barbell to the ground under control for the lift to count.  Any drops other than a safety issue will result in a no lift.  Belt, wrist wraps, elbow and knee sleeves only. Chalk will be the only grip aid allowed. Belt Cleans allowed.  Wessels rule in effect. Grip shirts can be worn under the contest shirt.

Trump Deadlift- 

Athletes will attempt to lift implements for as many reps as possible in 60 seconds. There will be two bars to choose from.  Athletes will have a deadlift bar and a deadlift bar with Madewell Strength elephant bar extensions to choose from.  Any single rep with the “Elephant Bar” will trump any number of reps with the Deadlift bar.  Each successful lift will receive a down command before the athlete may advance to the next lift.  Most reps wins in trump standard.  Straps, belts, and knee sleeves allowed.  No bare feet allowed. No suits or briefs.  Chalk only grip aid allowed.
