I want to start a new powerlifting organization!

[b fold the truth]

Do the spotters have to be naked too?

Ohh Lord...just had a bad visual of the spotters on the bench press..wait...an even worse one on the squat...ohh no...

Having had to both weight in people who could drop 100 pounds of lard and still be in the superheavy weight class, as well as drug test them, I must say that I absolutely think this is the worst idea ever.

However, if the ladies needed a judge . . .

Singlets would be a must...a MUST.

If you don't have shirts, suits, wraps, belts...that also means that you don't have sponsors...something to really think about.

Haven't you ever seen boxing matches where the competitors have "goldenpalace.com" grease-penned on their backs? Tattoos, temporary tattoos, and body paint would take care of that.

I'm just tired of all the BS about what's the best bench shirt, triple denim or... how should I cut my squat suit, etc.

This would be to put EVERYONE on an even playing field.

You can go compete raw if it makes you happy.

Hey jon crane not one person i know wears a triple denim. And if your reffering to me and how i cut my squat suit. Scoll down more and you;ll see my 700 with no suit which was easy as hell.

If this nude contest was to take place would you win? Is your raw lfits that much? Or is it you cant figure out what gear to buy?

They do have raw organizations. Thats why i like what Keiran Kidder is doing with the WPO so people who wanna test what they got against the best can go do it. My squat suit is single ply poly, i dont bitch or care about 2x canvas. I knwo my squat would go up with one but if get out squatted at this meet coming up by a canvas wearer iam not gonna say "well he has canvas and i have poly". I only replied this way cause iam the only one on this board who posted about altering my squat suit. Dont liek gear? Go lift raw. Period.

Here is my organiztion i like. Gear no problem, juice no problem, quick or long pauses i couldnt care less. Lift it , win it, or go home in last, but either way i will NEVER bitch about someones gear or drug use. Why? Cause i and YOU have access to all of it as well. YOu choose not to do either, lift somehwere else! It is so simple.

But your nude idea is funny though! I just think you were reffering to me in your post above. So no offense but you got my 2 cents.

Peace

PLjay, I was not referring to you specifically, I remember seeing some stuff about altering squat suits, if that was you I don't really care.

That's awesome that you squatted 700 sans suit, that's impressive.

What's the WPO? Who's Kieran Kidder? Do they seriously lift naked?

I definitely would not win a raw contest. Nor would I win or even place in a contest that allowed suits or shirts.
My GF is yelling at me so I gotta go. Maybe she wants to see me raw?!?!?!?!?!

I am sorry Jon Crane i didnt realize you were not a powerlifter at all. If you did you would know the WPO and KIeran Kidder. So with that said i wont even describe it. No they dont lift nude, they lift in anything they want. Under a triple ply. No one wears triple. You dont even powerlift so why do you wanna see people lift without gear? YOu have never seen people lift with gear.

That was my squat suit that was altered but since you dont care then i guess you said it all. Your the man! I am just a idiot who can squat 800 in a suit (should count cause of that) and bench over 600 with a shirt (shouldnt count either) and a nice assisted total.

Its your thread bro were just in it.

I wanted to cut and paste what I believe was Hanibal's signature a few days ago, but now I think he has the option turned off. It's a quote from Louie and basically says he has a 3x denim bench shirt with a bottle of test on it sitting in his gym and he has yet to see it bench 5 lbs.

Haha, Louie rocks!!

Extremely tired of the EQUIPMENT debate. If you think equipment is "false strength" then lift in a RAW federation.

When you compete at a meet...the rules are the same for everyone. Besides the only person you are truly competing with should be yourself. People that think that bench shirts..and squat suits are magic....should go get their own and KICK ASS!!

Would you play professional football without pads? I mean pads are allowed in the rules...but if your anti-equipment idea holds true then it is cheating..because it is not showing how much pain that your body can endure. To keep the comparison going....if you wanted to test your true football ability....go play FLAG FOOTBALL!!
