USAWA

I just read them (all). Interesting discussion on the knee sleeves. I know I am not nearly as old as some of the aged in our org, so I should not complain too loud (LOL), but I have a number of joints I have ruined or come close to over the years of lifting and wresting. Been having knee issues squatting lately, where it is tough to walk after for a couple days. Threw the sleeves back on and it took care of the knee troubles I was having (the squats felt equally as hard mind you). So lets just say I see where Scott is going with this. I also see where the old timers are coming from and having wrist wraps allowed or knee wraps in the squats is probbaly pushing it. Good topic for debate. And for what it is worth, I definitely thing that lift should have been named the “Tully Bench”.

I read all of it, I found it interesting. I agree completely on the knee sleeves, warmth is an amazing thing for the joints. So if I read that right the lifts that were passed are now offical lifts, that is cool to see.

A very good job with the minutes! Can’t beat the clarity -almost as if we were there (minus the 2 1/2 hours!!!!). I especially enjoyed learning that the U.S. records will finally be onsight !

I’ve read the minutes twice now! Very thorough job there Al, not nearly as much “fluff” as one would think:) There was one thing left out, but probably for the best. That is one of those “what happens in Vegas” things. Wait, two things! What a meeting! LOL

haha, good writeup Al,the only thing is that I proposed knee sleeves, and the guys who got mad were pissed about knee wraps being allowed, which they voted in 10 years ago, before I ever knew about the USAWA, Im actually very disapointed by the reaction of a couple of people about this, it was proposed for discussion, if they people didn’t like it, then vote against it, instead there were some fairly unkind remarks made towards me. Besides being fat I am als thick skinned so Ill be back next year to piss some more people off, lol. The Tully bench that I proposed, that I don’t remember proposing is a lift that I’m not sure needs to be included, I think it was actually a DB bench that I talked about,but I talk so much shi_ that I cant remember all the crap that comes outta my mouth.
