Hopefully his injury doesn't hold him back too much. Truck pull in the heat worries me.

Richardson is every bit their equal. On their day any of them could make the podium.

Caron, Shaw, Bish I'll say top 3. Though it's so close i really think there's about 8 guys capable of the podium depending who makes it through heats.

Apparently events and groups have also changed


Craig_Pfisterer said:
Heats:
Loading race
340kg squat for reps
Truck pull
360kg deadlift for reps
Log or Circus dumbbell for max (apparently, some groups will have log, others will have dumbbell)
Last man standing stone, 185kg atlas stone
Final
Farmer's walk 160kg + Yoke 500kg
18" deadlift for max
Keg toss, 5 meters height, 8 kegs of 25kg(uncertain if up to or all this weight)
Hercules hold for time
Log ladder from 140kg to 200kg for time
Atlas stone series, 6 stones, weight not listed

If it’s moved indoors because of storms what’s likely to go?
Keg toss (8m high rooms hard to find)
Truck pull.
Hercules.

I hope they don’t ditch the loading race and log ladder, but they do take up a lot of space compared to Powerlifting type events like squats for reps.

Oh yeah. I agree. I didn’t mean to miss Luke R off my list.

So far they might scrap truck pull due to weather. They got another meeting at 7:30AM (EST) where they will have stuff "confirmed" lol.

I think truck pull in a storm would sum up 2020 quite nicely.

Tore his calf about a month ago training truck pull. But truck pull is hopefully being scrapped now so that's good!

Truck pull is out, farmer's walk is in.

Groups have already changed twice since I've checked this morning...

No changes to Groups 1 and 2 at this time.

Hearing that due to weather, they won't be having the squat, everyone doing deadlift. No changes so far to finals as expectation is the weather will be nice by then. What a time to be alive.

Why is the squat affected by weather?

Allegedly worry is that walking out the implement in the rain (it's the globe barbell setup) is too dangerous. Again, I'm not sure why they make most of the decisions they do.
