Looking forward to it! We have a good crew of lifters again this year. Best women’s division ever!

Sanjiv, I will email you the specs I have for the big bar and the hand and thigh attachment. I believe my hip belt, harness, and neck lift gear is all made from agricultural belting. You are correct, the neck harness you would find online would not hold up.

Does the barbell fall within the limit of the rules? then it is not cheating. Just because you perhaps lifted on a non-optimal bb once, does not mean that lifting on a decent one is cheating. I can do a vast amount (like 100# more) on a 1 arm deadlift with a decent bar than with a trash one that is not optimal due to diameter. Does not make it cheating to use a decent bar. What does fall in the neighborhood of cheating is to use a clearly bent bar on something like a 1 arm deadlift (where the bend would make a difference) when the rules clearly dictate that we should not do this. I have one clearly bent bar that is used strictly in training. the rest are pretty straight.

I remember my first strength meet was the show me games. was supposed to do push/pull, but sprained my ankle, so did bench only. The guy who I was training with at the time was a former national level USAPL lifter, and he was surprised by the inordinate amount of time it took for me to get the press command. I guess this was a lesson for me in attending any of Clarks meets. On the flip side of the coin, I had been asked for a few years to officiate a high school powerlifting meet. They always put me on squats. Lots of kids bombed out for depth (and many of those were Kearney kids). The head coach told me he loved having me there, as kids would get to experience what national judging would be. a couple months later at a track meet a kid told me I made lots of kids mad at that meet. What did they want, a gift?!?!? I have always tried to be fair, but ere on the side of the lifter. Walk the fine line between being Johnny red light and Johnny green light. Aint going to please everybody, just do the best that we can…
