Men:

100kg+

RULES:

• Lifters have to submit a video on IG tagging @armliftingusa, @ironmind and #armliftingusa.
• The lifter's whole body needs to be in the video so it can be judged accurately.
• It has to be a real deadlift with Apollon's Axle (no replica) with a full lockout (head up) and hold at the top.
• Thumbless grip is NOT allowed.
• The bar must be straight.  Bent bars can alter the lift.
• The Axle cannot be modified in anyway.
• The bar must be level at lockout.  A tilted bar is a NO LIFT.
• Chalk is allowed.
• NO HOOK GRIP!
• NO wrist wraps.
• Lower the bar under control after completing the deadlift.
• No hitching or supporting the bar on the legs prior to locking out the weight.
• The bar MUST be pulled off of the floor, not from mats.
• Calibrated plates are preferred, but not mandatory.  
• Submit your bodyweight honestly.

Leaderboards will be live under the CONTEST RESULTS section of the website.

The contest will last from October 1 - November 30.  It is open to ANY ARMLIFTING USA MEMBER.  If someone wants to compete, they must join Armlifting USA.
