    I reckon I'd getcha 3-4 competitors... what's the story gonna be with the different classes, lighter implements?

    Might wanna report the thread and get a mod to move it to the fitness section itself and not logs.

    Would definitely be interested, depending on how you're going to categorize the events; by weight, age or lifts?

    We are not 100% sure it will probably be run with Junior, Novice, Intermediate and Senior catagories with Junior and Novice useing the same but lighter equipment than Intermediate and Senior.

    At the moment we are saying that there is 8 comps per year running from late Feb to Oct each athlete will have to compete in 6 of the 8 comps to allow for injuries work ect.

    There will be a set rule book and list of events so each comp will be similar.

    As you can appreciate we are private individuals doing this for the greater good of strongman so we cant break it up too much and weight doesnt play a masive role in strongman anymore because alot of the events have power and movement so it balances the weight issue a bit.

    As i have said we are getting this organised we just want to know what you guys think it is hard to say if we will get 20 or 100 guys so feedback will help the direction we go.

    Thank You

    Gary
