Hack Lift – Fulton Bar
By Al Myers
The best overall IAWA lift in the Fulton Bar Hack Lift belongs to English lifter Josh Davidson. He lifted 235.5 KGS on September 3rd, 2016.
The last lift of the Grip Championships will be the Fulton Bar Hack Lift. The USAWA classifies the 2″ bar as the Fulton Bar. The Hack Lift is hard enough, but when you change bars to the Fulton Bar it gets even harder. The bigger bar really wants to hang up on the back of the legs. This lift has NEVER been contested in a USAWA competition – only in record days in the past. It’s definitely not a favorite lift. The rules for the Hack Lift – Fulton Bar is as follows from the USAWA Rulebook:
F9. Hack Lift – Fulton Bar
The rules of the Hack Lift apply except a Fulton Bar is used.
