Amid speculation about what might or might not be taking place at the IFSA USA championships, IFSA CEO Jussi Laurmaa told IronMind® that "the Jamie Reeves Signature Premium Equipment Kits will be there, and therefore most of the disciplines will be standardized Classical Disciplines."

Laurimaa said that full details "will be released to all of the athletes shortly, at the same time, so nobody will get an unfair advantage in preparing" for the contest, which is scheduled for July 30 - 31 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Besides crowning the 2005 IFSA USA champion, this contest will determine which five athletes will qualify for the 2005 IFSA Strongman Pan American Championships in Sao Paulo, Brazil later this year.
