The current Ontario lightweight champion is Dain Wallis, and I believe he is the reigning Canadian lightweight champ as well. Lightweight in the CAASA strongman league here in Canada started out as a 170-lb class, but moved up to 175-lb in 2017. Weigh-ins take place on the same day, but they allow us a 3-lb allowance for clothes - and since you can weigh in wearing only your underwear and socks, that makes the weight class basically 178-lb.
Keep in mind that this is a manlet class. Do you really think a 5'10" / 175-lb manlet is going to be deadlifting over 600-lb? Literally the very strongest guys at 175 may be deadlifting between 550-lb and 610-lb. Can you really tell me, regardless of city or state that you live in, that you see manlets deadlifting 7 plates per side?
Also, it's usually the side handle [trap bar] deadlift that shows up in contest most frequently, and my trap bar deadlift is pretty good - again, with respect to my weight class.
PS - that being said, does anyone know where I can get shitty CSN MFT certifications online just by taking a multiple choice exam that I can take, and just send money to upon passing the online exam? I got the idea when I found out that a friend of mine has a Dave Palumbo nutritionist certification. Ya rly - Palumbo has his own personalized certification program. I don't want to get it in order to use it for full-time work or anything - just as a reason to refine my own training knowledge, and as a social experience. Also, if people ask what I do, and I tell them that I'm a personal trainer, that conversation can easily turn into "Oh hey, can you help me with [insert fitness goals here]?"
I realize that I already know my way around the gym to the point that I could train people right now if I wanted to. I see nothing wrong with making it official.
No one cares.
You are a small, weak, feminine, unemployed cuck of a man.
You would snowball with Howard and brag about it to get attention.
