Event 1 - Press

Option 1 - Keg Clean and Press

This event will be conducted in a head to head style, where two competitors will be face to face with one another performing reps on the same implement. The athlete will have 15 seconds to pick the implement from the floor. Once the implement leaves the ground a rep must be completed. If the implement leaves the ground, and is returned to the ground without a successful rep having been completed, that is the end of the event for that athlete. Upon completion of a successful rep, the implement should be lowered to the ground in a controlled manner, at which point the second athlete's 15 second "clean time" will start. When one athlete drops out, another athlete in the class will jump in and start the event. All reps accrued during an athletes time on the platform will count towards their total score. In the event of or when there is one athlete in the lane, the same time limit will apply. Any style of clean and press is allowed. 

A rep will be counted when the athletes elbows and knees are locked out and feet are even and stationary.

Allowed: Wrist wraps, belts, sleeves, other assistive equipment.

Not allowed: Tacky.

Option 2 - Yoke Press

Athletes will have 60 seconds to complete as many reps as possible. Yokes will be positioned on crash pads for the safety and should be returned to the pads after every rep. Yoke heights will be taken during weigh ins/check in.

A rep will be counted when the athletes elbows and knees are locked out and feet are even and stationary.

Allowed: Wrist wraps, belts, sleeves, other assistive equipment.

Not allowed: Tacky.

Event 2 - Deadlift

Option 1 - Circus Dumbbell Single Hand Deadlift

There will be 3 sets of circus dumbbells lined up in ascending order. The athlete will have 60 seconds to accrue as many points as possible by deadlifting a dumbbell with one hand. This is a grip event. The athlete may attempt to lift one or both dumbbells in a given pair to get a rep, as long as only one hand is used on one dumbbell at a time. The lightest pair is worth one point each, the middle pair is 10 points each and the heaviest pair is worth 100 points each. 

For example - If an athlete lifts both 40LB dumbbells that is worth 2 points. If an athlete lifts one 80LB dumbbell that is also worth 10 points. The athlete may go up and down the ladder as needed, meaning if an attempt on the 140LB fails, the athlete may go back to the 80LB or 40LB dumbbells. A rep will count when the athletes hips are locked out. The dumbbell may be lifted in the front or side of the athlete. The athlete must follow the dumbbell back down to the ground. If the dumbbell slips out of the athletes hand, regardless of down call, the rep will not count (don't drop the dumbbell from the top).

The dumbbells have approximately 2.3" diameter handles, and spherical ends. The volunteers and judges will not retrieve dumbbells for the athlete in the case that a dumbbell should roll away. Stay in control of the implement.

Upon completion of a successful rep, the implement should be lowered to the ground in a controlled manner, at which point the second athlete's 15 second timer will start. When one athlete drops out, another athlete in the class will jump in and start the event. All reps accrued during an athletes time on the platform will count towards their total score.
