weight is used for repetitions. Fingal's Fingers – A series of hinged poles ("fingers") are lifted starting from a horizontal resting position and flipped over to the other side.

The event takes its name from Fingal, a mythological Gaelic hunter-warrior. Power Stairs – A series of three Duck Walk implements ranging from are lifted, step by step, to the top of a flight of stairs. Squat – Squatting large weights, such as of bricks, a car, or people on a platform. Recently, an apparatus has been used that drops weighted kegs into a cage, one at a time after each successful lift (the event, in this case, is scored by weight instead of repetitions). The athlete will continue until completion, failure or time expires. Dead Lift – Lifting weights or vehicles up to about straight off the ground until knees lock in a standing position. Lift is for either maximum weight, maximum repetitions with a fixed weight, or for time whilst holding a single repetition. In recent years, a similar keg-loaded apparatus to that described above for the squat has been used. Keg Toss – Competitors must throw kegs, of increasing weight, over a high bar. A variation using kettlebells was added to the 2015 competition, while in 2017, gold bricks were used. Weight Throw – A weight is thrown overhead with the goal being to clear a barrier above the competitor. The goal is to throw the weight the highest. Car Carry – Competitors stand inside a stripped-down automobile, which is missing some of its roof and all of its bottom and interior, and carry it across a course. Competitors are scored by time, then distance once the time-limit expires. Hercules Hold – The athlete stands between two hinged pillars, gripping handles that prevent the pillars from falling to the side. The pillars are held for the longest possible time. Carry and Drag – An anchor and a chain are carried to the end of a set distance, where they must be attached to each other and then dragged back the same distance. Farmer's Walk – Competitors carry heavy objects (usually anvils) weighing from 275 to 375 lbs (125 to 170 kg) in each hand for a set distance, and compete for
