internet (24779) and (11966) clean (4621) virtual (3055) competition (1858) meet (984) weightlifting (299) powerlifting (247) jerk (79) snatch (26)
To allow most anyone to compete most anywhere, power racks and other devices that increase safety without affecting a successful lift are allowed; qualified spotters are simply not found everywhere. The dress code is a T-shirt and shorts. A belt is the only allowed piece of powerlifting equipment. The technical rules are standard, with special attention paid to the depth of the squat and the pause on the bench press. Participation is, and will remain, free. Our first meet was held in February 2007 .
We aim at creating a global arena where people united by the love of iron can lift together and learn from each other for friendship, fun and personal records in an atmosphere of mutual respect and good sportmanship. To truly break across a few more boundaries, we aim at translating the project into several languages. As a first step towards full site integration, we opened support forums in Finnish , German and Swedish in January 2008 together with localized rules, forum agreements and registration process
