The final of the heroic competition took place in Serpukhov

The final of the extreme strength competition took place in Serpukhov, where the best athletes gathered.

“The Power of Yards” is a series of tournaments that covered 30 cities in Russia. 30 of the strongest athletes were selected and competed in unusual strength exercises.

The finalists came from different cities: from Smolensk to Chelyabinsk, from Tyumen to Krasnodar.

In the final, the participants had to go through several stages. The organizers of the tasks tried to make them not only difficult, but also original and spectacular.

The competition included criteria such as strength, speed and endurance.

For example, in the first round it was necessary to lift four barbells weighing from 160 to 220 kilograms at speed.

Also, all participants in the competition had to hold two swords weighing 5 kg each on outstretched arms. This seemed like a difficult task; it became a real test for the finalists, who had to demonstrate their will and character.

The organizers of this large-scale event were the All-Russian movement “Healthy Fatherland” and Mikhail Koklyaev, a legend of strength sports and an eight-time champion of Russia in weightlifting in the weight category over 105 kg.

All participants gave everything of themselves to compete for the main prize – the UAZ “Patriot” car.
