The Powerlifting Club will be organising a Cuppers competition on the 24th of February. The event will take place in the powerlifting room at Iffley Road Sports Centre and all members of the university are welcome to join in the competition. The format will be a push / pull contest, consisting of the bench press and the deadlift. All competitors will be able to take part in either or both of these events.

The rulebook for the competition can be viewed here. These rules are a simplified version of the official IPF rules.

The format for the day is summarised above. The initial weigh in will be held from 8.00 am - 9:30 am, for anyone competing in the bench press only, or in both lifts. Competitors can be weighed in at any time during this period, at their discretion. The powerlifting room will be available from 9.00 am - 10.00 am for anyone warming up for the bench press.

The bench press competition will then be held from 10.00 am - 12.30 pm. Each lifter will get three lifts as per the rule book, and the strongest lift will be scored by Wilks points.

There will be a separate weigh in from 12.00 - 12.30 for those competing in the deadlift only. Anyone who has weighed in for the bench press does not need to weigh in again. The powerlifting room will be available for those competing in the deadlift to warm up from 12.30 pm - 1.00 pm. The deadlift competition will then take place from 1.00 pm - 3.00 pm.
