What is a push-pull?

[bigman75]

I'm thinking of getting into competitive powerlifting but there;s not too much going on in New Jersey. I've seen meets listed in Pennsylvania and Connecticut and they have a PUSH-PULL event. What is that like?

It's a bench and deadlift only meet. No squat.

look on the IPA websites and AAPF APA for good meets

personally I love the IPA and AAPF is my second favorite out of all the feds i have lifted in

We have an APA Full Power meet coming up this fall in Edison, NJ. It also has push-pull, bench only, and deadlift only events for those who don't do full power. There will be a monolift. For information/entry forms visit the APA website and click on the contest entry forms link. The APA website is located at APA Powerlifting Website Main Page

Thanks for the heads up. I think I'll swing by and check it our since I've never seen a PL contest before.
