Why is this not an actual thing with regular meets and records? You could have both fastest totals and heaviest totals in a standard time (45secs?). I reckon that would be awesome.
Not sure how fastest total would work. If you win for speed everyone would do the bar. So would a 1600 lb total in 40 seconds lose to a 135lb total in 20 seconds.
The total would be preset for each class. Say 1800, and the fastest wins.
But then what would it be for say 198? If over 1600 a lot wouldn’t be able to total it and under 1400 one could take a ton of attempts at That. I think there’s too many variables
It’d take some calibration but I think judging and equipment layout would be a bigger challenge.
A while back I was tempted to give it a shot but never ended up doing it. Felt I could do 1600 in under a minute.
Great way to start a new offseason training block
The only reason I didn’t was I feel I may get hurt doing it when it comes for nothing more than views
