Earlier this month was the Sydney power lifting competition. I had seriously considered entering it, but decided in the end that I wasn't ready. But seeing the results, there was a big hole in the 82.5kg weight divsion, where I would of entered. Perhaps I would of been the first cyclist to win a power lifting division.

My opening safe lifts would of been;
80kg bench press
100kg swat
140kg deadlift
A total of 320kg, 5kg more than the winner.
You get 3 lifts in each category and I would of gone up by 10kg in each, so my end total would of been somewhere between 320kg and 380kg, lets assume 350kg.

If the R-1 rule is broken, what happens to N+1?

There were competitors, but their totals were well below my capabilities. There wern't any really really strong dudes in my category. ha ha.uMP2k wrote:Sounds good to me - I am guessing that if it had been me in that situation I would have come second ...mikesbytes wrote:A bit like Tuco's D grade race where only 2 turned up and he won.
