Event Two Results — “Hang Clean Ladder”
This was a simple workout. All 40 athletes had one chance to lift the required weight in the ladder. If they failed in their attempt, the last completed weight would count towards their score. In the event of a tie, athletes then would have to perform five hang squat cleans for a time at 220 pounds for the men and 154 pounds for the women. Athletes in both divisions cleared the initial ladder weights and then made 10-pound jumps in their weight.
Numerous athletes set new personal bests in their hang clean, leading to many exciting moments for both the athletes and the fans in attendance.

Event Two Workout — “Hang Clean Ladder”
Each athlete has a 20-second window to hang clean a given weight that increases over nine rounds; men begin at 305 pounds, women at 200 pounds. The top weights are 365 pounds for men and 250 pounds for women. The winners are the athletes who lift the heaviest hang clean successfully. In the event of those eliminated in the same round, the tiebreaker is five hang squat cleans for time. The weights were as follows (men/women):

305/200 pounds
315/210 pounds
325/220 pounds
335/225 pounds
345/230 pounds
350/235 pounds
355/240 pounds
360/245 pounds
365/250 pounds

Event Two Highlights
Five of the men cleared the initial ladder, with four cleaning 375 pounds or more. Those four men would end up in the tiebreaker. Fabian Beneito Selles and Reggie Fasa each missed their attempts at 385 pounds, with Beneito Selles beating the Brit by six seconds in the tiebreaker to win the event.
Moritz Fiebig edged out Serbian newcomer Luka Vunjak in their tiebreaker for third place. Aussie Khan Porter set a new career best with a lift of 368 pounds but soon bowed out of the event without attempting 375, placing fifth.
Event Two Highlights
The women’s division did not need a tiebreaker to decide who the event winner would be. Karin Freyova easily cleared the ladder and had no issue with her 269 LB lift. Runner-up Oihana Moya missed at that weight leading Freyova to celebrate.
Dana Paran, the only American in the field, placed third with a lift of 258 pounds, followed by Hanna Karlsson and Tayla Howe, who needed a tiebreaker to decide the fourth and fifth spots.
