Tony | Sugdens Strongest Man 2009 | 28-09-2008 @ 20:57 | |
Is partial to the odd bender. Member 6, 10239 posts SQ 280, BP 192.5, DL 317.5790.0 kgs @ 102kgs Eq | Post Edited: 16.02.2009 @ 17:47 PM by Tony Right I think this has been talked about before and was brought up again when I was talking to Joni a few weeks ago.Off the back of the success of the informal Adlington Club meets the idea is for a Sugden Barbell Strongman competition. Much in the same vein of the Adders meets the idea is for an informal comp that gives people from Sugden the chance to compete in a no pressure enviroment. Hopefully this may encourage a few first timers to have a go alongside some of the more experienced guys. This f**ker may take a fair bit of arranging so this thread is for everyone to chip in with their ideas. Cleggy has kindly offered to lend us his gym to have the comp in, so venue is done. Not sure what gear he has there so anyone who can offer any equipment/means of getting it there pipe up. Going to be a bit of a team effort I think this to get it up and running but it it comes off it should be good. So lets hear it lads, what do you think? Saturday 21st February 2009 Olympic Sports Gym 4th Floor Portland Mill Portland Street South Ashton-Under-Lyne Lancs OL6 7SX Competitor list Tony jonnymills PAID Willsan PAID Carl PAID Jamiea PAID JC PAID tonyjb PAID Jbremers Moonen Nathan PAID Vinny from custard land PAID Dungeon Andy bhamstaf PAID bren35 Reserves Cleggys mate Chris Lowe Formalised list of events. Deadlift rising bar Bar will start at 200 and rise in 10kg increments. Competitors can pass lifts but 1 fail and your out. Farmers Walk 130kg for distance, high pick up. Length of course will be dictated by the size of cleggys car park. Log lift for max Log starts at 80kg and rises in 5 kg increments. Yoke 300kg for time over a designated course. Stone for reps over yoke in 75 seconds. 2 stones 105kg and 140kg. Rep with heaviest stone beats any reps with smaller stone. Top 3 competitors will receive prizes. All competitors to receive a competition pack. | ||

THE original and THE best ... Member 297, 2523 posts SQ 210, BP 155, DL 272.5637.5 kgs @ 80kgs UnEq | The best types of strongman competitions are those that have the core events, and not one of those tailored made comps for the organisers, i.e most events suited to upper or lower body strengths! 6 of these core events are: 1 - GRIP EVENT : Timed hold or Awkward object 2- UPPER STRENGTH : Log or Axle Press for Max or Reps 3 - LOWER STRENGTH : Superyoke Or Squats 4 - CARRY AND DRAG : Sledge / Barrel / Farmers / Truck Pull etc....... 5 - MEDLEY : Cross / Farmers / Sack / Too many to mention etc..... 6 - ATLAS STONES : Always a must for the final! From relatively small experience, ive been to a few comps were 4 out of 5 events are more a less the same lifts. Hope this helps Big Tony! i'll enter if fit! iam seeing the surgeon on Tuesday for an op date! | ||

Hyper obese Pete Member 70, 17870 posts SQ 322.5, BP 205, DL 300827.5 kgs @ 133kgs Eq | I suggest utilizing one of those rubber sheets off the Adlington roof, if anything ever deserved an event being designed around it, it's one of those | ||
