As this nuvo wave of strongman competitors enter this sport, possibly a result of the birth of USS, many, MANY, athletes are doing things wrong... from strapping on (to a bar), to cleaning an axle. Here is a short tutorial to put some questions to rest about continental cleaning the axle.
Remember, the judge has the call and if you try to override with a video, you may lose more than you gain. So, do it right the first time. The 4 Horsemen of USS are not very forgiving in this matter, but we want to see YOU succeed!
If the clean does not count, then the reps don't either!
There are less than 120 days until USS NATS 2017, that is plenty of time to make corrections and be at your best. In the mean time, remember to get out and compete to stay sharp and support your local promoter!
