    Competing in both GPC and PA

    Hello a friend of mine asked me if he could do a GPC competition and then do a PA competition. Usually people go to GPC when they are banned from PA so my friends desire to compete in both was surprising to me. Is there any issue for my friend to compete in GPC and then compete in PA competitions?
  5. Deadlift bars

    Just chasing options on deadlift bars. I plan to compete in GPC and turns out someone wants to buy me a barbell. Who's used both Okie and Texas bars. Why would you buy one over the other? Cheers.
