Movement standards
Husafell bag or Throwbag Bearhug Carry
The movement starts with the Throwbag in the bearhug position. Throwbag is in front of the chest with both arms around the bag. It’s not allowed to carry the bag in any other position. The movement ends with the bag back in the section in your lane.
Dual dumbbell Deadlift
The movement starts with one head of the dumbbells touching the floor on both sides at the same time. The athlete stands between the dumbbells and picks the dumbbells with both hands outside the legs (no sumo deadlifts). The athlete lifts the weight up until hips and knees are fully extended and the shoulders are above the hips. This is one repetition. Touch and go reps are allowed, bouncing (slamming the dumbbells into the floor to use the bounce) is not allowed.
Dual dumbbell Hang Clean
The movement starts with the athlete standing tall with the dumbbells in their hands and hips and knees fully extended. The dumbbells move from the hang position (above the knees and elbows fully extended) to the front rack position in one fluent motion. You are allowed to move the dumbbells between the legs or outside of the legs. In the end position, the dumbbells touch the top of the shoulders with one head, fingers are around the dumbbell and the elbows are in front of the dumbbells (dumbbells should be parallel to the ground in this position). The hips and knees are fully extended and both feet are straight under the hips. The athlete has control over the dumbbells. A clean from the floor is a no-rep and does not count. The athlete needs to extend in a deadlift first.
Dual dumbbell Shoulder to Overhead
The movement starts with the dumbbells in the front rack position (the dumbbells touch the top of the shoulders with one head, fingers are around the dumbbell and the elbows are in front of the dumbbells) The athlete gets the dumbbells overhead, where the dumbbells are straight above the head, with feet under the hips, and elbows, hips and knees fully extended. The athlete is in control over the dumbbells. This may be a strict press, push press, push jerk or split jerk as long as the standards are met. In the split jerk, both feet need to move back under the hips before the dumbbells are lowered.
