Australian Powerlifting Union thread

[MENTION=6618]spartacus[/MENTION] as APU's Head Recruitment Officer and Social Media Liaison Officer, it would certainly be a feather in your cap if you could get Gerry to crossover. I know a lot people are intimidated by his abilities, but.... It would be a coup for APU (see what I did there )
 

you are not against APU, you could have fooled me. you always have plenty of negative things to say, not much else.

and, the radio show tomorrow, if you can actually find the newsradio station, is about the APU's ability to get user pay drug testing after asada ruled that was the APU's best option given that the ASC already had a recognised federation.

the apu now has a drug testing arrangement through the IPF, but the show is about why we could not get testing through domestic sources.

I am just an APU member who tries hard.
 
as for woody's insults about my lifting prowess or even willingness to compete, he should let it go.

remember a member of fed need not lift; he or she an make an effective contribution as a supporter though membership fees, as a loader, as a spotter or any other role.

he or she can even dare to open their mouths and challenge the status quo backed by government agencies that were informed of obstacles that were preventing the APU from getting testing with a private agency.

so get off your high horse you elitist tosser, and keep jumping ship when it suits your lifting needs.
 

Yes, I too am now a paid up APU member.

I challenge [MENTION=895]Shrek[/MENTION] [MENTION=9251]Darkoz[/MENTION] and [MENTION=3627]Goosey[/MENTION] to also show support .
 
Come back [MENTION=19349]g3rry[/MENTION] the forum needs you!

It's not hard, just expensive.

I think that a standard test is up over $1k, but don't quote me on that. Remember that it's not just a "testosterone" test, it's a test that covers all sorts of chemicals, such as oral steroids, hgh, peptides, stimulants of all sorts and such.

It's also standard practice in international IPF comps to charge everyone a drug test fee which, combined, pays for the overall bill for those who are actually tested, as an IPF event is not sanctioned by one particular country's drug test authority.

The issue that APU has is that they don't currently have the membership numbers to do the same with their local comps. Since they are not ASC sanctioned, they don't get the government handout. It all has to be privately paid for (e.g. members pay to get sexually harassed in a toilet cubical).
 
for those who did not hear 'the ticket' today, I will podcast up when it is posted and transcribe key moments.
 
nothing wrong with it, although any site can always be improved.

APU has meetings with govt agencies in coming weeks.
