There are some strong women here, I know some of you would be able the hang with these events, and beat some of the boys in the LW division!. So if you’ve ever wanted to try a strongman contest, this is your chance! This is a novice contest, who’s going to be the first women to sign up? The Strongest Man at the Y will be held Sept 25, 2010 at the Salisbury, NC YMCA. Events:
-short bus pull
-Atlas stones (180lb, 235, 250)- tacky allowed
-tire flip (600lb tire)- if you can DL 225lb then you can turn this tire over!
-farmer’s walk (about 120lb per hand), FW implements are much easier to handle than DBs, so if you can walk with a 65lb DB per hand than you can do this
-Fingal Fingers
Weight classes:
under 175
176-210
211-250
251 & up
Entry fee is $25. I’ve done this contest before, it’s well run and a good time. For more info contact Kenny Seagle at (704) 636 0111 ext 223, email kseagle@rowanymca.com
