The Strongest Lightweights: Legends!

Welcome to the strongest lightweights LEGENDS!

FREE ENTRY for athletes that have competed before at the strongest lightweights. If you have please use code STRONG60 when entering. There will be 5 spaces in each category for new athletes, but please pay the entry fee. This will help with the running of the competition. Also to help, please bring spectators. u16s free but £10 gets you full entry from 8am. food vendor on site, sponsors march stands and a great show! First 20 spectators get a front row seat reserved!

Athletes and spectators can also get competition replica t-shirts. Profits from this (approx £10 a shirt) will contribute to a prize money fund for winning athletes. Collect on the day or have someone collect for you.

This competition will have a weigh in handicap. First of all athletes will have a 2kg allowance on 80/64 category. Then after this for every 0.5kg above the limit with start them on minus 0.5pts. This will ensure it stays fair and takes out the need for a big weight cut for a competition you all made weight for already. Plus its technically Christmas! New athletes can take advantage of this, however not if you have no chance of ever making an 80/64 comp in the future. We dont want a world class u105 coming to glory hunt haha.

Massive thanks to Big Strong Bitch and Kingdom Strength who will be providing a very exciting prize package for podium athletes.

Massive thanks also to Buds Fitness who will be giving goodies out to athletes too!

Event 1. Max log! Athletes have 60s to complete the lift. Should they fail to complete the lift in 60s then they are out. Athletes can skip lifts. All equipment allowed.

Event 2. Deadlift medley! Athletes will complete 3 reps on an axle, 2 reps on a power bar and one rep on a deadlift bar using the MiraFit plates from 13inches. Split times given on each rep. Suits allowed. Straps allowed. No hooks or sumo.

Event 3. Max Distance yoke & Husa. A spin on 2 events that were highly voted, both implements being in previous years! This year we combine the 2 with athletes choosing which implement to start with. Athletes take one item down the 12m course (drop and turn yoke breaking the line)(foot over the line for Husa) and back up, drop the implement (breaking line again) then take the other implement and so on and so on until the 75s time limit is up.

Event 4. Overhead medley. 2 reps on each implement. Olympic bar in to Axle, in to Circus dumbbell. Split times given on each rep. Due to set up, bars will be on crash pads to start and athletes will need to make every attempt to get them to return to pads. Dumbbell also needs to be returned to the pad with some effort also.

Event 5. Hercules hold! Hold on as long as you can! Weight stated are approximate. Likely go same as last year.

Event 6. Atlas Stones over yoke. 44 inches women, 48 inches men. This is a trump event. Tacky allowed. 3 weight options! 60s as many reps as possible.
