The item may be as hard as the athlete chooses, with a handful of exceptions: - the size of block weight must not be larger than a half 100lb Blob - no thick bar may be thicker than 2.5" - height must not be an issue where a shorter individual would not be able to lock the implement out - no face lifting of Blobs - no plate pinches wider than 3x25's, 5x10s, 2x45s - feat items and loading pin items will be lifted to lockout - if other limits are deemed appropriate by the promoter, they will be added Each lifter must lift his/her own Medley item FIRST and then proceed with the rest of the Medley Competitors along with their weight class/division will be added along with their Medley item, so everyone has the ability to train all the implements.

I usually buy 48 decks for $26 or so, so I will bring 20 or so decks so everyone can choose it if they want, and just take the rest home if any are left. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedd Johnson Posted April 18, 2023 Author Share Posted April 18, 2023 I have the wrench. Not sure about Channel Locks. But if you could bring those, that would be great. Thanks bro. Just wouldn't want anyone's performance to be affected or for the unit to break. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
