Yeah that's the thing - with a strength endurance event you'll often see lighter lifters put up bigger numbers. Some women in this challenge hit damn impressive numbers with a 16kg (35lb) bell.

World record numbers for KB snatches between 70kg and 90+kg guys are pretty close.

These type of challenges are great for testing fitness levels applicable to demands required in many sports.
