Weight over bar
Weight over bar (or Highland games 'one arm' weight over bar) (Scottish Gaelic: cuideam thairis air a 'bhàr, tilgeil cuideam air son àirde) is a traditional strength sport derived from ancient Scottish Highland games that involves the heaving of a 25.5 kg (56 lb) (half hundredweight) weight, over a bar using one hand. Unlike its other counterpart, the Weight throw which involves a full body rotating spinning technique, the Weight over bar (classic method) requires the weight to be kept between the legs before swinging it up in a pendulum like manner, and releasing when it is at its apex, directly overhead.
