Of course. But more attention, I would hope, than they pay to those with no lifts at all in their signatures. Let's not forget why we came up with that.
This forum is already very much the PTC Forum now. Fadi hardly ever posts, we get fewer newbies than we used to, etc. I hope it won't become ProRaw - Competitors Only, Everyone Else Fuck Off.
I would have thought you'd be familiar with the idea of fatigue...?Oliver04 said:
On topic, why do we need standards labels at all? Can't we just have totals and competition winners?
Don't they have 7 hours?
To answer to your question as to why have standards / labels Kyle it is because there were quite well defined levels/standards for equipped lifting but not for raw style lifting. Standards help put my lifting into context and give me guide posts as to where I am going and objectives to aim for in the future. Totals and winning are fine but they sometimes fail to give you a good yardstick to judge yourself against.

Go do 3 squats over 95% then 3 benches over 95% then 3 deadlifts over 95%. Then report back to us about how you felt by the time you got to the deads.

In a federation with no records it gives lifters something to work towards. I'm not going to win the 110+ class unless Gawain breaks both legs (accident or otherwise
) but I can work towards a higher total ranking.7.fucking.hours. You could watch the lord of the rings extended version. Twice.

from the PTC comps I have lifted in, have been absolutely buggered by the end of the day, as well as the exertion of warming up, lifting 3 singles for 3 (or 5 in the good old days) events, there is also the mental fatigue from the nervous energy/ excitement of competing, which gets draining after a whole day of it.
So yeah, can't really compare gym lifts to comp lifts, although personally, all my pb's have been in comp, but that probably has more to do with the fact I rarely test my 1rm except in the lead up to a comp to sort out openers etc.

You're an idiot. Until you've tried it you're in no position to comment.
