I think this will do all the competitors good to learnt to clean properly. You are all lucky, we were thinking of using weightlifting rules, no pausing or downward movement in the press  TBF George, if its C&P on a bar, 99.9% of the time its on an axle, with a weight too heavy to power clean/clean due to grip issues for most | ||

Member 790, 73 posts | JC said: Its a strongman comp though...the fact its hosted by a WL club is irrelevant Having to full clean in a SM comp is a bit much IMO agree. Yoke and stones (or other established strongman events) = Job done!! If you are insisting on a "different" event put the shot throw in again everyone seemed to enjoy that. | ||

So its cool? Also just because people dont do something in training is no reason not to put it in a comp, strongman is supposed to test people in ever aspect | ||
