Chris “Leroy” Todd performs a People’s Deadlift at the OTSM Championship
It is that time of the year again. KCSTRONGMAN will again be hosting the record day “Lift for Leroy.” With the holiday season coming up before we know it, the members of KCSTRONGMAN all-round club knew we needed to do something to help Leroy out with his general well-being. We are hoping to avoid another one of those holiday “accidents”. So, the proceeds from this meet will all be allocated for this purpose. Please do not send donations. We will just be using the funds collected by entry fee to help Leroy navigate these times.
We will be holding this meet in conjunction with the club’s performance of the postal championship lifts. We will first do the three postal events together. Then each of the competitors will have the opportunity to attempt record poundages in up to 5 lifts. We should have enough certified judges that you can attempt world records as well. It is just up to you to have the world records you are attempting to ensure you secure enough judges for that attempt. We will be lifting in the basement and/or barn and it is in December. It will more than likely be cool/cold. Regardless, for each attempt the USAWA dress code will be enforced. Wear what you will between sets to maintain your comfort.
