The first annual Tactical Strength Challenge was a blast! Thanks so much to everyone that came out and competed! We love all of you!
The men’s open winner was Tyler who deadlifted 227kg (500lbs), snatched the 24kg 131 times, and IIRC 19 pullups.
Second place went to Mike who challenged Tyler in an exciting snatch showdown with the 24kg! Mike added some humor to the event by casually hanging out on the pullup bar between pullups. 🙂
The winner of the men’s novice division was Alex who did just a great job all-around. We love Alex’s warrior spirit!!
Second place in the novice division went to Ting-wei who did the best looking pullups of the day. His pullups were perfect and he pulled each on to the top of his chest! He tied Alex for first place, getting EXACTLY the same score, but Alex was lighter, putting him in first place. Ting-wei will be hungry for a win next year!
Third place in the men’s division went to Billy, who would have placed first if he had pulled more in the deadlift, which he could have done. This was his first competition and he was too conservative with his lifts, as each one went right up without effort. He could have added 20kg to the last deadlift attempt easily, which would have put him in first place. Go for it next year, Billy!!
It was an honor to experience the efforts these guys and gals made today! See you next year!
