bencrush Posted January 12, 2005 Share Posted January 12, 2005 Technically this isn't a full grip contest. There are 5 lifts and 2 of them are grip-related. I thought I'd post it anyway in case there was anyone who is interested in going. The contest is put on by Al Myers (Highland Games star) in Holland, Kansas. There will be some very strong guys there. I don't know if any women are going to show up. So no disrespect to the ladies. The lifts are: Fulton (2") Bar Snatch 2.375" Dumbbell Deadlift (one in each hand) Alternate Grip Bench Press Steinborn Squat Backlift 7 divisions. Womens, Masters, Juniors, Lightweight, Middleweight, Heavyweight, and Superheavyweight. I'm going to be there and it's on the 15th of January. Starts at 0900 I believe. Some of you strong dudes should show up and represent! That is if you're in the area. If not, you'll just allow me to place one higher. Edit: Forgot to add one of the biggest points of interest. There will be an Inch replica there! For those of you who are dying to try one and are close...this is your chance. My girlfriend's brother is betting me he can pick it up. One handed. He has no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
