The Cyr Dumbbell

The Cyr Dumbbell is lifted using two hands to the shoulder, but then only one arm can be used to push it to arm’s length overhead. This year, however, two dumbbells with different weights will be used—just like the Austrian Oak event. The Heavy Cyr—made by Rogue Fitness especially for the 2016 ASC—will weigh 300 lbs. (136.5 kg) and the Light Cyr will weigh 274 lbs. (124.5 kg.)
