we will soon..one way or another...im glad your doin the contest also. that'll just gives you something to shoot for and it'll make training days easier since we'll be doin same things. you'll do great.

 

[b fold the truth]

Doesn't look like enough events to test overall strength. The qualifier is better than the final. I hate the fact that most of the events don't test max lowerbody strength.

Either I know EXACTLY who you are or you just have no clue about strength and how relative it is to the events above.

An 800+ super yoke takes TONS of lower body strength to pick up and so does an 800 pound tire and a 500 pound power stairs implement (that is what I expect).

Have you ever tried to pick up anything heavier than 300 on farmers??? He is using 375 EACH HAND for 200'...and that isn't testing lower body strength?

Ever throw a 56# for height???

If you want to test non-moving lower body strenth...enter a powerlifting meet...and stay away from strongman.

WOW! Have you ever even done strongman? If you tried some of the events you would see that it's not what you think. It really does take alot out of your lower body.
