Day Two (November 1st)

Event Four — Circus Press Medley

The second day of the 2025 Rogue Invitational Strongman & Strongwoman competition kicked off with another medley. Specifically, the athletes faced multiple implements, including a kettlebell, dumbbell, and axle barbell. The aim of the event was to lift the entire series of implements and finish with as many reps as possible. The time limit was set to two minutes.

Men’s Weight: 210-lb (95-kg) Kettlebell, 253-lb (115-kg) Cyr Bell, 375-lb (170-kg) Circus Bar for Reps

Strongman

An incredible battle took place in the Circus Press Medley between the two biggest favorites for the title. Trey Mitchell and Mitchell Hooper were truly in a league of their own, going head-to-head and racing to complete more reps than the other. However, both men got stuck after completing six reps. Trey Mitchell was unable to get the bar up to his shoulders despite being strong enough to press it. On the other hand, Hooper was unable to reach lockout on the seventh rep despite trying it twice. In the end, Trey took the event win, having completed his sixth rep quicker than Hooper.

Lucas Hatton finished in third place with a tally of five repetitions. Hatton’s pressing strength was not the limit for him, but similar to Trey Mitchell, he was unable to clean the barbell off the floor and up to his shoulders. However, his final score still secured him a top three finish.

• Trey Mitchell — 6 reps (1:15.98)
• Mitchell Hooper — 6 reps (1:19.93)
• Lucas Hatton — 5 reps (1:33.91)

Event Five — Power Drive

The second-to-last event of the entire competition was the Power Drive. It was a challenge that consisted of two motions. Firstly, the athletes had to push a massive imitation of a hay bale for a distance of 30 feet and then pull a massive sled for another 40 feet. The aim of the event was to complete both tasks in the shortest time possible.

Men’s weight: 750-lb (340-kg) Power Drive, 740-lb (336-kg) Sled
Women’s weight: 600-lb (272-kg) Power Drive, 560-lb (254-kg) Sled

Tom Stoltman put on a show in front of his home crowd in Scotland and won the Power Drive event. He pushed the first implement with force and then utilized his massive wingspan to crush the sled pull as well. As a result, he finished the entire event in 51.17 seconds. With the final event being his favorite, Tom put himself in a great spot to battle for the podium overall.

Knowing that the 2025 Rogue Invitational Strongman competition was slowly coming to a close, Mitchell Hooper knew that he had to make up some points on Trey Mitchell. So, he pushed hard on the penultimate event of the show and finished in second place with a time of one minute and four seconds. On the other hand, Mitchell placed seventh and allowed Hooper to take over the lead in the title race.

Day One (October 31st)

Event One — Wagon Wheel Axle Deadlift

The first event of the 2025 Rogue Invitational Strongman & Strongwoman competition was the Deadlift. Specifically, the athletes performed the exercise on an elevated setup with an Axle barbell. Everyone was given three attempts to achieve their one-rep max, which was then compared with the scores achieved by other athletes to complete the ranking and point distribution systems.

Strongman

Mitchell Hooper got off to a perfect start at the 2025 Rogue Invitational Strongman competition, having won the first event with a lift of 1,050 pounds (476.3 kilograms). He opened up with a 1,000-pound (453.5-kilogram) deadlift but had to add 50 pounds (22.7 kilograms) on his second attempt to get the max points.

Austin Andrade was the man who pushed Hooper, as he locked out a massive 1,025-pound (464.9-kilogram) deadlift on his third attempt. This marked a great start for Andrade, as he finished ahead of a lot of incredible athletes. Lucas Hatton and Trey Mitchell tied for third place with a score of 975 pound (442.3 kilograms)

Strongwoman

Lucy Underdown was the expected winner of the deadlift, having dominated this event in past competitions as well. Interestingly, she did not even need to perform her third attempt, as her second pull of 720 pounds (326.5 kilograms) proved to be enough to take the win. Her lift was simply immaculate, as she maintained perfect technique and easily reached lockout.

Jennifer Lyle and Andrea Thompson tied for second place, with both athletes reaching their limits at 700 pounds (317.5 kilograms). Lyle struggled a bit in her opening event but managed to get back to her best and reach the 700-pound (317.5-kilogram) milestone.

Event Two — Viking Press

The second event of the day was the Viking Press. It is a well-known event in the Strongman / Strongwoman community and is recognized as one of the best tests of upper-body strength. It features a special machine that allows the athlete to start with the implement at shoulder height and press the weight above their head. In this specific case, the athletes had a goal of performing as many reps as possible in the shortest time possible.

Men’s weight: 360-lb (163-kg)
Women’s weight: 225-lb (102-kg)

Strongman

Trey Mitchell was the star of the Viking Press. He paced himself perfectly, not going out too fast and managing to push himself throughout the entire minute that he was given to perform. In the end, Trey completed 22 repetitions to take the event win and add 10 points to his tally.

Mitchell Hooper continued his charge for the title with a second-place finish in the Viking Press. He was the final man to step out onto the competition floor, meaning that he knew the exact number of reps that he wanted to achieve. So, he utilized an explosive approach, making sure to quickly perform a dozen reps. He then reached 16 reps and decided to push himself a bit further in the final seconds to finish behind Trey. Bryce Johnson and Lucas Hatton tied for third place with 16 reps each.

• Trey Mitchell — 22 reps
• Mitchell Hooper — 18 reps
• Bryce Johnson — 16 reps
• Lucas Hatton — 16 reps

• Tom Stoltman — 13 reps

Strongwoman

Inez Carrasquillo’s performance in the Viking Press could potentially go down as one of the most impressive feats of strength ever seen at the Rogue Invitational. She locked out 20 repetitions in the given time limit of 60 seconds, practically getting no rest throughout the entire event. So, not only did she display impressive performance, but also remarkable endurance as well.

However, Angelica Jardine was not far behind, having locked out 18 reps in total. She was on pace to take the event win, having completed 17 consecutive reps without rest. However, her strength then gave out, and she had to take a few seconds of rest before adding another rep to her tally. Andrea Thompson had a similar performance, having quickly performed over a dozen reps before taking a moment to rest. She also ended up with 18 reps and a tie for second place.

• Inez Carrasquillo — 20 reps

The third event of the 2025 Rogue Invitational Strongman & Strongwoman competition was a medley. So, to close out day one, the athletes first had to perform a heavy Yoke Carry, followed by Power Stairs, where they had to carry multiple implements up a flight of stairs. The aim of the event was to finish the entire task in the shortest time possible.

Men’s weight: 1,050-lb (476-kg) Yoke / 500-lb (227-kg), 550-lb (250-kg), and 600-lb (272-kg) Power Stairs
Women’s Weight: 650-lb (295-kg) Yoke / 225-lb (102-kg), 275-lb (125-kg), and 325-lb (124-kg) Power Stairs

Strongman

Paddy Haynes took the event win in the Yoke Escalator, as his fitness proved to be crucial. The Yoke carry was not his strength, but his ability to carry the implements up the stairs without burning out was the winning factor. He finished the event in one minute and 26 seconds, which was over half a minute quicker than anyone else.

Trey Mitchell continued putting up incredible results and finished second in the Yoke Escalator. Like Haynes, Mitchell was not the quickest on the Yoke Carry. However, once he transitioned to the Power Stairs, he easily overtook multiple athletes who got stuck. Thomas Evans placed third by finishing three seconds after Trey. Interestingly, Mitchell Hooper was in the lead throughout the majority of the race but was unable to lift the 600-pound (272-kilogram) implement and did not finish the race.

• Paddy Haynes — 1:26.42
• Trey Mitchell — 1:58.85
• Thomas Evans — 2:01.24

Olga Liashchuk ended up taking the event win, having held a steady pace even once she reached the heaviest implements. Her winning time came out to 45.48 seconds.

Hannah Linzay also had an impressive run despite being one of the last ones to complete the Yoke Carry. She overtook the majority of the roster on the Power Stairs, utilizing her height and strength to quickly carry the implements to the top of the stairs. With this, Hannah finished in second place, beating Inez Carrasquillo by just 0.02 seconds. Interestingly, Inez slipped up at one point of the event, which ended up costing her a point.

• Olga Liashchuk – 45.48 seconds
• Hannah Linzay – 50.26 seconds
• Inez Carrasquillo – 50.28 seconds
• Melissa Peacock – 50.84 seconds
