     Since ALL RPS EVENTS are eligible for XPC totals, that would include this one.

    Hi, I was wondering what is legal to wear underneath our singlets? Briefs, Boxers, compression shorts, jock straps, cups?

    • Gene Rychlak, Jr. says:

      We do not legislate nor dictate what a lifter can or cannot wear under their singlet. Underwear of any type ( tidy whiteys, briefs, granny panties, thongs, etc ) are permissible, A Jockstrap is OK. Commando is a personal choice, Under Armor or similar shorts are allowable for modesty sakes. Anything thicker would be deemed a supportive device. I don’t think wearing a cup would be of any help and would probably be hindrance .

    Can I participate in Bench “only” AND dead lift “only” without being in the IRON Man comp.? If so, what is the total cost for the two SEPARATE events?

    Does $88 for a single division mean Full Power as well? Otherwise does Full Power count as a single division? (Sorry, never competed before!)

    Any idea yet how its being set up with weight classes per day etc? like women/ lighter weight men 1st day, equipped or 2nd? Or will that depend on the amount of lifters you get?

      The top of the pad is apx 19″, 18″ when sat upon. The rack is adjustable. Warm up and platform benches have the same setup.

    First time competing so I apologize if this seems like a silly question…is the team category a separate event/division or do team members still participate as individuals? Thanks

    • amejane25@yahoo.com says:

      Each lifter is still awarded as an individual per their division. The team is one fee to cover the group to compete for the team awards.

    Thank you!
    One other question…this may have been answered before, so I apologize for the repition. Does Full Power include 3 lifts (squat, dead lift and bench)? If I plan to do all lifts do I register for full power and pay $88, plus $40 for each additional lift/division. Sorry I’m clearly a newbie 🙂

    Ive asked this question before and am still unsure. I can arrive Saturday morning. Weigh in and compete that day. Correct? Or do I have to weigh in on Friday. I apologize for the confusion and frustration. Thanks for the help.

      You are correct. You can weigh in the morning you compete. Some lifters will be cutting to make weight and we provide an early weigh in for those doing so.

        Excellent thank you. Also it seems my division ( Raw Classic 198 Open) competes later in the day. Do I have to weigh in @ 7am or will time permit me to weigh in at 11am- Noon? Thanks again

    I see on the “calendar” that Dec 7 is “sold out”. Does that mean the entire meet- or are there openings for the Sat. 198lb. and below?

    Also, I would be coming from 2 1/2 hrs away; do you make exceptions for weigh-in times (in case I arrive after 7:30 am)?

    Hi, after reading the rules for weigh ins, I was wondering what is your definition of lightly clothed? Would weighing in with just a singlet be possible?

      You can weigh in wearing as little to no clothing as needed to make weight.
