I can't compete in this because I am in Mexico on a holiday which was booked after the Northerns

Good luck to all the guys competing in this

Ben I Have a Few Things I Wanted To Ask...Just Dumbass Questions Prob Been Answered!

Here Goes...

-If You Fail 1 Log Can You Still Take Another attempt?
-Is It 5kg or 10kg Jumps On Log
-Is It Same Van As Northerns
-If You Drop Cross Before 20m Can You Pick It Back Up Or Is That Is?
-On The Squat Will Ref Tell Us When Were Deep Enough Or Not?

Sorry If These Have Been Answered Before? Grin

No worries mate...

1) Waiting on Log Lift Champs rules from Big Rob Framps!
2) 5kg unless the above rules say otherwise (but pretty sure it will be 5kg)
3) Yes, same van and set-up
4) Yes, you can drop and pick up the cross but will have to do it yourself (no help from spotters)
5) I will consult JT on this as he will most likely be reffing it

That would be a mistake IMO

I think guys wearing suits have a bit of a problem in that they will have the ability to get more reps, but getting down with 230 in a suit if its tight may be touch and go

yeah but in my opinion for it to be "fair" the ref should tell you to get up from the squat when "he or she" thinks your at the right depth!

if "he/she" doesnt! then others will be going deeper than others!?


no? Happy

No! If you go deeper than you need to, thats your problem!

Its as simple as this really:

"the top point of the thigh at the hip joint must be lower than the top point of the knees"

I deadlift events you had lift and down signals and when you reach the required mark on farmers and yoke there is a command

I don't see this particular event any different and if proposed and I was competing would be accepting of similar commands for the squat event as others

Powerlifters have seemed to cope without a ref calling depth for as long as I can remember. If you are that bothered, get a mate to do it for you.
