About this Konkura strength challenge

Challenge created by:Gymboy30
Profile pic: Gymboy30

Challenge for: both male and female
Ability level: suitable for all competitors
Age range: any age 		The objective of this challenge is to monitor the muscular endurance of the athlete's elbow flexors and shoulder extensors.
To undertake this test you will require:

* Bar above head height
* Stopwatch
* Ideally an Assistant and camcorder

This challenge requires the athlete to perform and hold a chin up position, using a bar above head height, for as long as possible.

* The athlete warms up for 10 minutes
* The athlete uses a flexed arm hang position with the palms of the hand facing them
* Using their arms the athlete raises their chin above the bar to the "start position"
* Once the athlete is in the "start position" the assistant starts the stopwatch
* The athlete is to maintain the "start position" for as long as possible
* The assistant stops the stopwatch when the athlete's chin drops below the top of the bar.
* The assistant records the time the "start position " was held for.
