Competition Date: May 4, 2024, Saturday
Using the experience of the past 10 years in street workout competitions and my other sports knowledge, we develop this key competition year by year.
The qualification will be held in freestyle and power categories for both men and women.
The qualification system for the World Championship will undergo several fundamental changes and clarifications in 2024 based on professional discussions with the WSWCF World Federation. The most important update is that this year competitors must prepare for both the classic 2-minute round AND a duel.
Detailed freestyle and power rules can be found HERE. The latest rule updates will always be highlighted in green!
In the Power category, competitors will be qualified through three main exercises (pull-ups, dips, muscle-ups for men, and pull-ups for women).
A winner will be declared in each weight category if the number of participants in that category reaches at least 6. If there are fewer than 6 participants in a category, the participants will move up to the next weight category. For example, if 5 light-weight competitors register, they will be moved to the middle-weight category, and so on. If the total number of competitors across all three weight categories does not reach 6, no World Championship qualifier will be declared in that event. Further information on the number of qualifiers per category for the World Championship will be published soon, both here and on the Facebook event.
