jonathansummers | Invercairn Gala under 90kg Strongman - August | 20-05-2014 @ 13:36 | |
Member 4437, 64 posts | Post Edited: 30.07.2014 @ 17:17 PM by jonathansummers Following the success of our amateur strongman in 2013, I’m looking to step things up a little and get some bigger guys and heavier weights involved. Looking to run an under 90kg strongman on Saturday 9th August at Invercairn Gala. This competition will be held on grass so I have tried to avoid any events which require a decent amount of grip – a platform will be set up for any events which require a solid surface i.e. deadlift, pressing etc.Events will kick-off around 12pm, so competitors should arrive for weigh in around 1 hour before. I will update the status on this nearer the date when a few more things fall in place. There will be trophies for the top three with SCI-MX providing some bonus supps for the top three placings. Maximum of 12 competitors, with any overspill being included as reserves. If you wish to put your name down for this competition, please contact me through this thread or by e-mail at jonathan.inverallochy@gmail.com with your name and contact details. Event 1 – Maxle: 2” axle starting at 80kg then increasing in 10kg increments until 120kg, whereupon 5kg increments will take over. [Belt cleans allowed; however, no skipping weights and a successful rep must be locked out and held until ref signals.] Event 2 – Farmers walk: 120kg per hand over 30m course with a turn at 15m (low pick-up). [Farmers must be held whilst turning at 15m, no drops or straps allowed. 60 second time limit.] Event 3 – Key loading medley: 50L kegs weighing 100kg, 110kg, 120kg and 135kg to be loaded onto a platform from 10m out. [All kegs must be standing on the platform. 90 second time limit.] Event 4 – Deadlift for reps: Head-to-head with 230kg for reps. [Standard bar and plates. Each rep must commence from rest and be held at the top until ref signals. Straps are allowed but no suits. 90 second time limit.] Event 5 – Giant dumbbell press: 60kg dumbbell to be pressed for reps. [10” circular pipe with 2” handle. Each rep from the floor to overhead and must be held until ref signals. 90 second time limit.] Event 6 – Stones: 106kg, 124kg, 133kg, 144kg, 155kg and 166kg stones to be loaded onto platform. [90 second time limit.] Competitors: 1. Scott Alexander 2. Gary Robertson 3. Jeremy Vickers 4. David Sanderson 5. Liam Calder 6. Darryn Wright 7. Calum Morrison 8. Ian Gibson 9. Adam Rutherford 10. 11. | ||

his poor male ego must be crushed Member 883, 6251 posts SQ 290, BP 180, DL 420890.0 kgs @ 105kgs UnEq | This looks like an awesome comp BUT "This competition will be held on grass so I have tried to avoid any events which require a decent amount of grip" You realise 120kg farmers with a low pick up and a turn with no drops is gonna be pretty f**king tough at U90s right? | ||

Member 4437, 64 posts | Yes, we did this last year at an amateur level with 100kg per hand and it worked out fine. Admittedly, there was no turn only a drop. Given the right dry conditions this should not be an issue. If the grass is wet we will workaround and do what we can. | ||
