  • Virtual meet bench competition Did a competition at virtualmeet.net, 3 attempts at a max paused bench press. I lost a lot of strength over a 5 day backpacking trip, around 25-30 pounds :( But I'm gaining it back quick, couldnt do 240x1 paused when I got back, within 2 days I got this:) The newspaper is for the meet, they use it to confirm you lifted on that date.

This thread is to sign-up for the 19-21 March 2010 Military Bench meet only. Questions and comments concerning this meet should be posted in the discussion thread.

The deadline for lifters to sign up is Monday, March 15th at 10:00 GMT; after this date, only judge sign-ups will be accepted.

To register for the meet, just post a short reply to this message. This implies that you:
  • HAVE READ AND ACCEPTED THE RULES (the LATEST version of the rules!)
  • AFFIRM YOUR DRUG-FREE STATUS (again, see the rules)
  • REALLY AIM AT DOING THE MEET, not just thinking about it. Of course, injuries and life can happen, so you are naturally free to cancel your entry if needed.
 

Also include which day you want to lift on. This day can be changed up until the sign-up deadline.

** 19th is on a Friday
** 20th is on a Saturday
** 21st is on a Sunday

Further instructions on how to submit the video footage etc. will be sent out via e-mail to all participants after the sign-up deadline has passed.

Those who wish to judge should also sign-up in this thread.

To make sure that you don't forget anything essential, we highly recommend using the checklist as a supplement to the rules.

Good luck!  Smiley
