Feats With Hands

Recommended Posts

Contest was great, weather cooperated and everyone had a great time. I will post a personal account of the event later. The score sheet transcriptions appear below.

I will leave it to BC to fill in last names I did not catch all of them.

Huge thanks to BC for putting this on and hosting at his home! I can't wait till the next contest!

(x) denotes a missed attempt

A number following the gripper indicates difficulty i.e. a 3-2 is harder than a 3-1.

In Blobs the -2 notation is a two handed lift i.e. 40-2 is a 40# blob in each hand.

I have footage of the event and I will work on getting it off the camera and clipped.

Sorry if the scores are unclear. The compose window on the post looked so pretty but when I posted it deleted all the tabs and smashed everyting together. I will send to Wanna as a word document later.

Feats sounds a lot more fun than the work I did instead. Wish I could have been there. Good lifts all around.

The event was a good time and I learned a thing or two. Gonna break down and buy some grippers!

I'll definitely give it another go the next time this comes around.

Nice to meet everyone!

Definitely a fun contest. Very laid back. I didn't do as well as I'd hoped, but that's just motivation to train harder. Thanks for a great contest BC!

BC used strongman scoring, lowest score wins.

Sam 1st

Gordon 2nd

Matt 3rd

I am converting the video now and I will have clips to send to Wanna later in the week.

Nice lifts guys! On the ring handle deadlift, how high did it have to be lifted from the ground, and how long did it have to be held there to count?
