Guest Bullitt Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Entry form for Capitol Grip Cup. Wasn't sure how to attach the form, so just copy this to a word document and mail it to me. Also, please post in this thread if you are coming, so we can plan accordingly. Sponsors (so far): Fat Bastard Barbell Company Diesel Crew Death Grip Chris Rice Saturday, May 8th, 2010 9:00 AM registration start. 10:00 AM contest start. Balance Gym @ Thomas Circle 1111 14th Street, NW Washington, DC 20005 Events: Grippers (MMS) 2HP - (Euro) DO axle dead lift for max weight (2" Apollon Axle for da boys, and 1 5/8" for da girls - like Gripmas) 1" vbar Sledge lever (using Chris' setup version 2) Medley from Hell - All events will be rising bar except grippers. - There will be a men’s' and women’s' division (there may be more if we get a ton of people) - Because we have a lot of help and a large facility, some events may run concurrently to save time. For instance, the men and women can be doing axle at the same time because they use two different bars. - Depending on the number of sponsors we get, the entry fee may come down (if this happens after you send in your entry fee, we will refund the difference). Right now it is $40 if you send it before April 15. $50 after April 15th. Send check for $40 along with this form to: Mike Rinderle 1444 Vineyard Ct. Crofton, MD 21114 I, _____________ , will be competing at CGC on May 8th. I am M / F (circle one). My T-shirt size is ___.

Guest Bullitt Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 Considering the fact that I can not close my HG200 without falling to my knees in pain, I will probably be running events instead of participating in them barring a minor medical miracle.

rico300zx Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Mike I'm in talks with the wife about coming i m susposed to start CNA school that week so I can get a summer job before my nursing clinicals in the fall. Even if I can't compete ill still try to come in with mikeK, he said I could ride with him, if the wife says ok then ill be there with bells and whistles. Hey remember what I said about the elbow, it'll just take time to heal. So take it easy and you'll be fine when its all over. Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

climber511 Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 With missing the first two weeks of track due to snow and not sure when it will all melt off - I still don't know if I have a track meet that day. I will not do the 1" V-bar no matter what so last place for me - and I'm OK with that if I can make it. It may be a last minute kind of thing - they are still working on the meet schedule.

You and I can fight for last, since I will probably be doing everything left handed if I play. Love to have you Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico300zx Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Mike what do you have planned for the medley, some times promoters post a pic of the line up, can u do this also or will it be a suprise for everyone, also do u need me to bring anything. Look in my gallery if you see anything let me know. And I can bring it for the medley. How about farmers walk pick up with some weight on there?

Guest Bullitt Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Haven't yet determined what will be in the medley other than the following: 42lb blob, 50 lb blob, fatman blob, sledge deadlift with coin on head, a reverse bend of some kind, 45 hub lift and hub lift on "THE THING". Ask Chuck Carns or Goody about the Thing. It is an evil 50 lb plate with a wiiiide shallow hub. There will be plenty of other stuff in there too, but those are the things I'm sure of at this point. We will have a good mix of stuff from very easy to stupid hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barbe705 Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 will it be 4 attempts on each event? will it be strongman or percentile scoring? brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 At this point, the plan is to use percentage scoring and 4 attempts on all events. If we end up with a ton of competitors we may have to drop it to 3 attempts per competitor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoggoth Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Will we be able to use any of the gym equipment to warm-up with (like the squat rack)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chuck Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 A pic of THING 1 and proof it can be lifted. Don't tempt Mike into adding THING 2 into the medley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bullitt Posted March 9, 2010 Share Posted March 9, 2010 (edited) Entry forms and $ in: Brent Barbe Mary-Ann McKeague Bobby Goodfellow Mike Rinderle Melissa Rinderle Told me they are coming, might be coming, or are thinking about coming: Carl Ansera Parris Janusek Chris Rice John Eaton Chuck Carns Michelle Carns Mike Krahling Zach Coulter Jason Steeves Frank Snyder Matt Brouse Jedd Johnson (probably not, with the new baby coming) At least those were the ones that I could remember. Get your entry forms in guys and gals. Also, I would like to know what your thoughts are on dropping one event to make it run faster. Only respond if you are going to come out to the contest please. Of these events, which would you vote to drop if we have to kill one? Grippers 2HP DO axle deadlift 1" v-bar Sledge lever Medley And Jason, I'm sure we can warm up on the equipment.

Guest Bullitt Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I figured you would vote down vbar for sure Brent. 1 vote sledge 1 vote grippers 2 votes vbar (I know Chris Rice doesn't want this already) Keep the votes coming. Thanks for the feedback guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rico300zx Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 How about ditch the v bar, its a lot of loading and un loading as well, it will save time. Plus I don't even have one to train with.
