BRO's V PRO'S-5 IDEA!

[Justin]

I like the one arm dumbbell press idea. Like in the strongman competitions. Every rep from the floor (with two hands if desired) them one arm only from the shoulder to above the head, then back to the floor. in the Strongman comps, the dumbell is 172 pounds, so for this, maybe 120 pound dumbell for reps, 150?

I've been saying this forever. I think Robert the strongman originally brought up the idea

We haven't seen standing overhead press yet. Then the drama could be the layback and push pressing.

that would be too hard to judge i think, well idk maybe if it was like really tight form

if they set the rules beforehand then there would be no issue about what counts as a legal press.

either way it is a brilliant lift. maybe i could judge...or participate.

120 is a good weight

a grip endurance event would be my choice.

do a dumbbell or plate hold for time.

You could do the 100 yard dash with a loaded up weight sled.





That would be an easy set up and you could run the event in the parking lot of a gym, Max Muscle, GNC, ect. All you'd need is a good quality sled, some plates, some cones to mark off the racing track and a stopwatch. You could also set up some tents and offer protein/carb/energy drink samples and you could run a bbq or bento stand for the fans and the competitors who are done with their dragging.

I want to see forum members lift. This would expose peoples incompetence and lies. Wait a second they would not show up day of and come up with a arbitrary excuse why. Yeah...so forget this post

They'd pay someone to lift for them.

Haha it seems that we share the same preferences. Grip strength/endurance is one thing where I can usually outdo guys a lot bigger than me.

not as dynamic as most people like but a way better test of strength.

a good event that would look well would be a hercules hold.

[BuffGuy]

how about clean and press challange? you got to pick up the weight from the floor and press it up... no one can cheat on that..
