Thanks guys, interesting.

IPF doesn't allow the same amount of gear for suits and bench shirts, so most lifters use a more upright, high bar position squat.
I like the idea that if you can't lift it without gear then you really can't lift it. Guess that explains why I'm not in that world

A raw meet might be fun to do sometime.


Alco - yes the two most prominent lifts done in that study were power cleans and high pulls, for obvious reasons.
