If you’ve ever wanted to give powerlifting a try, this is your chance! ATR is hosting its first unsanctioned powerlifting meet right here in Cheyenne. You’ll get all of the experience of a powerlifting meet in a no-sweat, low-pressure environment!

Open to athletes and competitors of all ages, this event is perfect for anyone looking to make their first foray into powerlifting.

Weigh Ins:

Friday December 9th, 10AM-12PM and 4:00PM-6:00PM

Saturday, 7:00AM-8:00AM

Lifter’s Meeting:

Saturday December 10th, 8:15AM

Lifting Start:

Saturday December 10th, 9:00AM

Rules and Equipment

The event will defer to the USPA’s rulebook in order to qualify lifts. Any diversions from the USPA rules will be announced on the day of the event at the lifter’s meeting.

Note that modest awards will be given out to the top three WILKS for men and women, but only for those competing in compliance with the rules regarding the RAW category (no knee wraps, no squat/deadlift suits, no bench shirts). Should you wish to utilize any of this equipment, you’re more than welcome but it will disqualify you from the final awards.

There is no “Bombing Out” at this meet. Even if you fail to record a qualifying squat, you will still be welcome to bench and deadlift.

Signing up for this meet implies that you’re signing up for full power. Should you wish to only compete in one event, please let us know when you weigh in.

Our priority with this mock meet is to make sure that everyone has fun while getting some exposure to the great sport of powerlifting. For more information, plase reach out to Travis Bogard directly.

USAW Level 2 Certified Coach Josh Karabetsos is coming to teach us all some Olympic lifting basics.

The snatch has become a very popular method of pressing in strongman, with lifters using it to hit big numbers with the axle and the log.

The movement can be tough to learn, so for anyone that has ever thought that they might like to learn how to dip under an implement, this FNS is for you.

We’ll start with Josh working us through the basics of the jerk. We’re collaborating with CrossFit Frontier to make sure we all have space and barbells to learn with.

From there, we’ll bust out the strongman implements to see if we can apply what we learn!

Anyone looking to up their overhead game better not miss this Friday Night Strongman!

Another Excuse to Get the Team Together!

Peace County Strongest is putting together an online grip event to benefit cancer. Sounds to me like the perfect excuse to get the team together for BBQ and Brews.

Make sure to head over to the post on Instagram to enter by dropping a comment. Submissions have to be in before August 15th so we’ll host our shindig August 6th to allow time for re-submissions the next weekend.

This month, we’re hitting the yoke.

This implement is a Strongman favorite because of it’s simplicity.

Its heavy. You pick it up. You carry it. You put it down.

The most important things to note about the yoke have to do with keeping your core braced and your hips organized.

To get to the extreme weights you might see in a heavy competition, you have to have a rock solid torso to transfer the force from your bottom half to the bar.

Don’t be fooled, everyone can benefit from this exercise and we’ll show you all the tricks.
