MSU Strength and Fitness Weekend

MSU University Recreation will be hosting the MSU Strength and Fitness Weekend which will feature all the different aspects of physical fitness. The male/female winner of the full event will be crowned Mr./Mrs. MSU Fit who performed the best across all categories. The full event will take place over the course of two days plus the Halloween Hustle 5k the following weekend that is being put on by MSU University Recreation.

The event will begin Friday evening with two of the powerlifts - Squat and Bench. This is followed the next day, Saturday morning, with the Deadlift to finalize the strength portion of the event. Saturday afternoon will begin with the Bulldog Blitz challenge, which can be thought of as a mix of strength and endurance, followed by a run through the Obstacle course for time. Participants in the full event will then race in the Halloween Hustle 5k the following weekend (10/29) before the Mr. and Mrs. MSU Fit will be named.

There will also be a Strongman/Strongwoman award for whoever lifts the most across the Squat, Bench and Deadlift. There will be different weight classes which will help determine the overall winner. If you do not want to compete in the full event and only in one category of events, strength or endurance/agility, then those options are available, but you will not be eligible for the Mr. or Mrs. MSU Fit award.
