Moya.. Have u seen dennison's entry on powerlifting watch? Hes adding a classics division basically raw lifting but with knee wraps now..

Oh ok yea thats a good way of looking at competing from year to year.. I kno its not pulling on a rack but if u cant make a low position on ur rack at home have u tryd off of blocks to raise the everythn

The dec 10 modesto meet i was there too i did the push pull tho not full pL.. Yea there r som shady ppl man jus show no respect but shirts an suits will deffinatly help ive added lots of weight to my lifts from basic gear.. Do u sumo or conventional cuz conventional deadlift with a suit is...

Lol thats true guys always say they can bench this squat that but nvr with proper depth or having to pause n wait for a press command on the bench.. Are you gonna b competing at the raw an single ply state championship in march?

Depends if sumo deadlift u can use the squats as a warm up sort of.. But id agree doing the squats first while your still learning will help so ur not worn out while trying to reach proper depth

I deffinatly agree both my coach an i agree im not ready for heavy duty gear n jus has me n basic for now but i startd training in april of 2011 n sinc then have added almost 500 pounds to my total but hes expienced coach been in the sport himself over 40 years so im jus learning all i can

I was reading an aritcle in an old powerlifting USA an there were literally 20 different opinions on raw lifting its crazy.. But if u have the funds for som good equipment u should try full power.. Have u done it b4 or traind in equipment?

Im training for a uspa comp in feb at diablo barbell club.. im still new to this but dennison always puts on good meets.. Are u the same moya wit the raw records for uspa??

Hey bro nice for you to join im still new as well lol.. But anyway sounds like you have a good plan set up im not an expert but id continue from there till ur base strength is up mayb try the new lifts at the end of the workouts for one or two sets light to work technique an jus c were your at...

460 is great my best is only 495 raw.. What federation fo you compete in?

Great squat glad to see some people still care about proper form and depth over crazy numbers... but yea depth was there 3 white lights... What was the weight?

You should be able to find out on there website what they test for.. But your safest bet might be to just go non tested like you said so u dont get rejected for somthing that does nothing for you
