Rules and Equipment
The event will defer to the USPA’s rulebook in order to qualify lifts. Any diversions from the USPA rules will be announced on the day of the event at the lifter’s meeting.
Note that modest awards will be given out to the top three WILKS for men and women, but only for those competing in compliance with the rules regarding the RAW category (no knee wraps, no squat/deadlift suits, no bench shirts). Should you wish to utilize any of this equipment, you’re more than welcome but it will disqualify you from the final awards.
There is no “Bombing Out” at this meet. Even if you fail to record a qualifying squat, you will still be welcome to bench and deadlift.
Signing up for this meet implies that you’re signing up for full power. Should you wish to only compete in one event, please let us know when you weigh in.
Our priority with this mock meet is to make sure that everyone has fun while getting some exposure to the great sport of powerlifting. For more information, plase reach out to Travis Bogard directly.
