What Is Powerlifting, And What To Expect At Our In-house Competition?

What is Powerlifting, and what to expect at our in-house Competition?

On the day the lifting will start at 8:30am, so we suggest you turn up at least 1 hour beforehand at 7:30am to weigh in, submit your opening attempts, record your squat rack heights, and start warming up for your opening squat attempt.

After the deadlifts are completed, we will calculate each person's Wilks score. (A coefficient way in which measures relative strength to bodyweight) This number will be a total of your heaviest squat + heaviest bench press + heaviest deadlift, calculated against your bodyweight. The Wilks score will be used to determine the best competitor of the day who will receive full bragging rights and our $100 cash prize!

If you are still yet to register, make sure you do so as soon as possible to secure your spot, as spaces are limited to 15 people.
