    The end is here! On the final episode of the Brute Showdown we see the ladies take on the last three events, which include softball, soccer and an eating contest. We have seen a shake up in the standings as we progressed through the last few events, can the ladies close the gap and take the lead from our current leader, Brooke Ence? 

     

    Event 6: Softball “Hit-off”

    Each of the ladies will be pitched to by an LSU softball player. They are allowed 6 total strikes and will be awarded a point for every ball that is kept in fair play. Highest number of hits wins!

     

    Event 7: Soccer Shoot Out

    The ladies will go through 2 iterations of 3 shots from various spots along pitch, with 15 seconds on the clock they will be awarded a point for every ball that makes it into the net.

     

    Event 8: Watermelon eating contest

    The ladies will have 2 minutes to consume as much of a watermelon as they can. The athlete that consumes the most watermelon wins.

    3 Rounds for time:
    500m Row
    12 Deadlifts (95#)
    21 Box Jumps (20″)

    While each of these ladies has had a different experience to this training methodology, you will see some carry over from their own sport carry into how they perform. With Brooke being our favored athlete as the CrossFit Games Veteran, watch to see how it all plays out.

  • Brute Showdown S2E2: Max Lifts

    ·

    admin

    In this episode of the Brute Showdown, there’s cheering, slapping and several PRs as the competitors push themselves to find their max lifts.

    With Brute Coach Adrian Conway as the host, these four athletes from different realms of fitness are battling it out: bodybuilder Dana Linn Bailey, CrossFit athlete Brooke Ence, powerlifter Maddy Forberg and weightlifter Mattie Rogers.

    Watch as they complete the first two events of this competition:

    Event One: Max Clean

    Will the Olympic lifter, Mattie Rogers, who’s favored to win this event take home the gold for event one?

    You’d think that would be a no-brainer, but the truth is all of these women have serious POWER and experience pulling heavy loads off the floor.

    Event Two: Max Deadlift

    If you’d be betting on a winner for this event, you’d be smart putting your money on Maddy Forberg, our powerlifter. However, once again all the competitors bring the heat in this lift.

    Multiple athletes hit huge PRs and all of them make deadlifting 300+ pounds look like lifting a PVC pipe.

    Bottom line is — the rankings at the end of this episode may come as a shock to you 😏
