Eric Roussin Posted December 31, 2015 Author Posted December 31, 2015 These are the lifts/feats that will be included in the medley. Exact weights to be used for the variable weight lifts will be determined once I get a better sense of who will be attending. Competitors will each have three minutes to complete as many feats as possible. No limit to the number of attempts for each feat, and hands can be switched at the competitor’s discretion. Full lock out will not be required, but the judge will be looking for controlled lifts (i.e. no dropping). 50-lb standard plate Pinch Lift 32.5-lb blob lift by the face Reverse Rotation of a 6-lb Sledge Slim Lever of an 8-lb Sledge Rear Lever of a 10-lb Sledge (Coin on Head) 45-lb plate by the hub 35-lb plate by the hub IM Tug #3 with Pinky Finger CoC #1.5 (TNS) 132-lb clevis lift (one hand, by a rotating 3.3” pin) 49-lb anvil pinch lift by the face (one hand, with thumb and two fingers) 124-lb anvil pinch lift by the face (two hands) Blob50 Pinch Lift 3” Axle DO Deadlift Rolling Thunder Lift One-Hand Deadlift using an Olympic Bar Saxon Bar Deadlift LeverTop Underhand Grip Lift 2x4 Palm Pinch Lift Rim Lift 8-lb Bomb Lift Tips Tester Lift Bull Ring Extensor Lift MoonTop Lift IronMind Hub Lift Shallow Hub Key Pinch Lift Stub Lift Sorinex Anvil Trainer Lift FBBC Jug Lift Vulcan (20mm block set) 1 Quote Major Grip Titles Won: 8x Canadian Nationals; 6x Visegrip Viking; 3x APL Worlds; 3x Armlifting Worlds; 3x North Americans; 2x Arnolds; 2x Armlifting World Super Series; 2x Cross-Canada; 1x King Kong; 1x Shaw Classic Founder of Canada Grip Sport / Co-Founder of the International King Kong Grip Challenge / Creator of The Armwrestling Archives
