Strength games

Strength Games consist of three main events: 

(1) a three-attempt powerlifting deadlift, 

(2) pull ups/flexed arm hang (supinated grip) for max reps/time, and 

(3) kettlebell snatches for max reps in a 5:00 time period

These three events target the various qualities on the strength continuum, being maximum strength, strength endurance and speed strength and puts to the test all 3 energy systems. Taking into account the trade-off between various abilities with the deadlift favouring larger participants, pull ups/flexed-arm hang favouring smaller participants, and kettlebell snatches testing all participants equally, this challenge aims to bring about the most well rounded athlete.
