2009 Fall Practice Meet
| November 1, 2009 | ||
| 5:10 pm | to | 9:45 pm |
- Sunday, November 1, is our heaviest squat practice before the 2009 Longhorn Open. We will squat under simulated meet conditions.
- weigh-in before practice begins
- real meet timing
- lifting order determined by weight attempted
- judges who give lift commands and either pass lifts or turn them down
- 3 and only 3 attempts
This means:
Everything will be as close to meet conditions as possible.
By analogy with other sports, if normal practices are drills, then this practice is a real scrimmage. It takes more resources to put on a scrimmage in powerlifting than it does in most sports; our alumni and friends are helping us out tremendously!
