Over 90!

Over 90 people have registered for the Arnold Classic KB event. So, if you are sitting on the fence, now's the time to act. If you have registered and have not received your entry form, please email me at lopa43@hotmail.com. Put something KB like in the subject line please. I will send it off to you right away.

If you have not sent me an entry, please be sure to do so. You have until Feb. 1st to decide which event or what weight class you're aiming for but I would like to have the entry form now anyway. It just makes keeping track of all you guys a bit easier. You're a slippery bunch. On January 31 you can email me with your decision and I'll change up your entry form for you.

Thanks!!!!

Lorraine

Updates for 12/22/08

Since we have announced that all participants would be limited to one event, there has been some confusion as to what those events are. Snatch and Jerk will not be separate events. The events are Long Cycle or Biathalon. Long Cycle consists of 10 min of cleans followed by jerks and Biathalon consists of one 10 minutes set of jerks followed by a 10 minute set of snatches with a minimum of 30 minutes of rest in between. For more details regarding these events you can go to -http://americankettlebellclub.net/forum/faq.php. You’ll also find the rules and regulations here.

Happy training,
Lorraine

More Competition Details

Welcome to the first ever Arnold Fitness Expo Kettlebell competiton to be held on March 7th, 2009. Please check this blog often for updates.

There have been several large changes since we announced the meet. The first and most notable change is that we decided to limit participation to 100 competitors instead of 150. 150 is a good number for the future, but it is overwhelming for 2009. We will now be able to hold the entire competiton on Sat, March 7. Weigh-in will still be held on March 6 starting at 6:30 pm and will take place at the Holiday Inn.

The second major change that has occured is that we are asking all participants to limit themselves to one event only. I have attempted to contact those of you who have forwarded me (Lorraine Patten) your entry forms personally.

We've noticed that the more experienced lifters limit themselves to one event for a good reason! This is the Arnold Fitness Expo and you will want to give it all that you've got and two events is one too many.
