One bonus pound will be added for multiple successful lifts to those who make it to the final bar (315/200), and as completing as many reps as possible within the 50 second limit at that final bar.

FINAL SCORE
This will be a “point” based challenge. First place for each event receives one point, second place, two points, etc. In the event of a tie, each competitor will be awarded the same point, example:
Athlete 1: 1 point
Athlete 2: 2 points
Athlete 3: (tie) 3 points
Athlete 4: (tie) 3 points
Athlete 5: 5 points
Say athletes 3 and 4 both got 100lbs for their dead lift, each will receive 3 points on their score. Following up with athlete 5 receiving 5 points (it skips a point)
Scores for each event will be added into a “cumulative total”. Lowest score determines the leader going into the final event on September 4, 2010.
