Lovely ass Congrats. Member 5958, 2315 posts SQ 280, BP 170, DL 300750.0 kgs @ 138kgs UnEq | AdamT said:I think 600 is too heavy for yoke. Wsm depends a lot on casual viewer. So a couple guys moving a few steps and many not moving at all, would make s**t viewing imo. Maybe keep it at 500 or up it 20kg. This is a very good point. Id had a pre work out when i posted thisand felt i could lift the world. On location i think there should always be a hosting athlete. Gives a competor/competetors a chance to win the worlds in his own yard. | ||

 Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17933 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | Robbo91 said: Otherwise how long before the shorter guys want a lower bar on the keg toss or the taller guys want the deadlift to be from a higher starting position. I don't think that would happen as things like that tend to even out over different events, but the stones height is a different kettle of fish entirely. | ||

 Member 5560, 769 posts | Post Edited: 10.01.2016 @ 16:04 PM by MJG I would hold it in the UK obviously. I would also have a slight change of format and have 8 events in the final and 5 in the heats. 6 just isn't enough. Not so sure about weights but I would go for - 1. Load into arm over arm pull - loading three objects into skip/sled over a 25M course. Then Arm over arm pull the sled back up the 25M. 2. Overhead Medly - A number of objects (lets say 10) Points assigned to each object. Objects include WR log, natural stone, dumbell and Axle etc and points heavily weighted so anyone achieving a record cannot be beaten by someone that doesn't. Whoever can accrue the most points wins the even. 3.Truck Pull - no idea about weight but it should be possible to complete for almost all the athletes. 4. Hussafelt stone - 200kg 5. Herculees Hold - either with the pillar set up or the cars. Would love to see how strong these guys grips are. 6. Super Yoke - 475kg and I want all 10 guys in a line doing it together 7. Squat - Max squat on regular squat set up. 8. Atlas stones - 170 to 210 KG. That would be a contest. | ||

Doesn't like tall people very much. Member 5708, 391 posts SQ 260, BP 195, DL 275730.0 kgs @ 137.5kgs UnEq | Fatpete said: I don't think that would happen as things like that tend to even out over different events, but the stones height is a different kettle of fish entirely. You might be right, especially as it's often the deciding event. It's certainly crap when there's a strongman of Lalas or Hixxys caliber who is struggling because the first platform is taller than they are. The heights of the barrels at Europes seemed to be ok for everyone. | ||

The heights of the barrels at Europes seemed to be ok for everyone. Stones are a bit different. If they are a really heavy set its ok, but with the light set guys like Thor and Shaw are so fast that it would be physically impossible for a 5ft 10 guy to beat them with high platforms. That's what makes it different to an event like Keg Toss where the short guy still can win if he is really strong. | ||

 doesnt work hard enough in the gym Member 1492, 2138 posts SQ 170, BP 145, DL 195510.0 kgs @ 112kgs UnEq | Some great ideas here I think it needs A loading medley (add the arm over arm here too as suggested) A log - probably reps as it makes the PB stuff available for other competitions A deadlift - I would do a max on oversized tyres/wheels (saves the max bar for other comps) A truck pull - if they could do it then side by side (2+ athletes) Farmers Walk (better than a frame or stone carry) Stones Then a proper pose down and chess game in the event of a tie | ||
