Event: Warpath Strength Push/Pull For Patriots

Registration for this competition will be capped at 50 athletes so please sign up early. If you register after October 15, a competition t-shirt is not guaranteed.

Here are the events and rules, including a description of equipment that is and is not allowed:

Event 1) Circus Dumbbell

Athlete will be required to clean and press every rep. Once the dumbbell is on the shoulder the other arm must come completely off of the implement before pressing it, otherwise it will not be counted. Athlete must lower the dumbbell to the ground and touch/tap it before cleaning it again, so you may “touch and go,” but the implement MUST touch the ground, otherwise the rep will not count. A successful rep will be counted once the athlete’s knees, hips, shoulders and elbows are all locked out and the athlete is clearly in control of the dumbbell. The athlete must wait for the down command from judge for lift to be counted. There is a 60 second time limit for this event. Athlete with the most reps in 60 seconds wins.

Equipment allowed: Belt, knee and elbow sleeves, wrist wraps, chalk, gloves. Grip shirts may be worn UNDERNEATH the event shirt.

Equipment NOT allowed: Absolutely no tacky of any kind (not from a jar, no spray, no towels, no tape).

Dropping the dumbbell from overhead will result in a zero for the event and possibly expulsion from the competition. Please respect the equipment.

Event 2) 18” Axle Deadlift (using semi-truck tires)

Athlete will must deadlift the 2” axle bar from an 18” elevated position to a full lockout position (the hips must come through) for as many reps as possible in 60 seconds. Athlete must wait for the “down” command in order to be given a successful rep. There will NOT be an “up” command, so the athlete may complete the reps in a “touch-and-go” manner as long as each rep is completely locked out. Athlete will be allowed to hitch. Athlete with the most reps in 60 seconds wins.

Dropping the axle from the lockout position will result in a zero for the event and possibly expulsion from the competition. Please respect the equipment.

Equipment allowed: Belt, knee and elbow sleeves, knee and wrist wraps, wrist straps, chalk.

Equipment NOT allowed: No deadlift suits, no hook-grip straps, no tacky.

Event 3) Sandbag Medley

Athlete will start on the line with three sandbags and hands may be placed on the first bag at the start, but NOT underneath. When the “Go” command is given, the athlete will grab the first sandbag, carry it 50 feet, load it over a yoke and then run back down 50 feet to repeat this with the second and third sandbags. One drop per bag is allowed. If an athlete drops a bag more than once, their attempt is finished and the distance from the starting line will be measured. Sandbags may NOT be stacked at the starting line. All three sandbags must be picked from the ground and the bags must be picked from lightest to heaviest. Athlete will have 60 seconds to carry and load all three bags. The height of the crossbar on the yoke will be 48” for all women and 52” for all men. Time will stop when the third and final bag hits the ground. Fastest time wins.
