“Weight lifting is about lifting the impossible, overcoming the unachievable. If you don’t lift things that are hard, and only do the things you can do, it’s only going to get boring. Unless you want to lift beyond your limits to get stronger, to achieve new goals, and to be satisfied, you got to lift past these challenges, and still lift the things you think are impossible to really understand how your true strength will show. lift how I lift, see how I lift, watch how I lift, learn how I lift, and your true strength will come forth and be revealed” – Chasers Holmes
RULES:
1. Athletes in the sport are divided in five weight classes and placing is based on the total weight lifted on the three main lifts: a. Squat b. Bench Press c. Deadlift
2. Five bodyweight categories: up to 56kg, 62kg, 69kg, 77kg, +77kg.
3. Each competitor is allowed three attempts on each lift. The lifter’s best valid attempt on each lift counts toward his competition total.
4. Three referees judge the lift.
5. If two or more lifters achieve the same total, the lighter lifter ranks above the heavier lifter.
6. A good lift is signaled by indicating a white flag, and an illegal one by a red flag.
7. Once the highest value has been collected for each lift, the total weight lifted in squat, bench press and deadlift is added up.
8. The lifter with the highest combined weight lifted becomes the champion.
9. In the case of a tie, then the lifter whose body weight is less becomes the champion.
10. The weight of an athlete's first lift determines their place in the starting order. If they choose to go for a light weight, they will go earlier in the order.
