Current status of Powerlifting?

Haven’t been following it for years… have a few questions.

  1. Are they still pushing for it as a Olympic sport?
  2. Is it still overstuffed with different feds and sub categories ?
  3. Are the leaders in the IPF still a bunch of pricks?

Lots of drama

  1. IPF suspended USAPL for not doing enough drug testing.
  2. USPA lost meet directors because of inappropriate conduct of officials.
  3. My area APF meet directors resigned because of (I don’t why).
  4. Minnesota USAPL was sued over the transgender thing.
  5. USAPL brought back the original weight classes so they might being giving up on the Olympic sport.

Well shit i just assumed since you hear jack and shit about geared lifting anymore.

Figured they would do some Raw.

Nah, they came back and did it right. It was cool, but a blip.

Hmmm… might need to take a look out of curiosity.
