The 2025 Rogue Invitational has provided another weekend of grit, power, and world-class athleticism. As one of the most prestigious events in the Functional Fitness season, it gathers the sport’s top competitors for a test of strength, endurance, and mental toughness unlike any other.
As the morning Scottish mist cleared over Aberdeen for the final day of competition, the Men’s Division of the 2025 Rogue Invitational went as follows:
Individual Event 7 – Granite City
The action kicked off with Event 7 – Granite City.
