From that point, contestants may press the pole from their chest. Contestants will have 90 seconds to do as many repetitions as possible. The contestant may place the pole on the ground to rest during the 90 second time limit. We will have heats with four contestants at a time in this event. In order to receive credit for a repetition, contestants must extend and lock elbows on each repetition without the assistance of spotters.
Judges have the final decision on the number of successful repetitions for each competitor.
