StrongKids Mini Competition
Taking place during lunch of August’s Pioneer’s Strongest Competition, FCY will hold its first-ever StongKids Mini Competition.
Kids will compete in age groups: 7-9 years and 10-12 years old (no gender or weight classes).
We will run 3 strongman events with kid appropriate weights and implements.
– Tire Flip (160# tire, flip 3 passes down and three passes back)
– Overhead Press (press 5# barbell overhead as many times in 60 seconds)
– Atlas Stone Toss (toss 20# stone over bar, as many in 60 seconds)
No experience necessary, we will show and explain all moves in each event before we do it!
We’ll have plenty of volunteers to help the kids and make it a really fun day for everyone!
T-Shirt included.
