Push-Pull Raw Challenge

The Pax River Push-Pull Raw Challenge Powerlifting Event is a Raw/Classic bench press and deadlift meet on Feb. 24 at 7 a.m. at the Drill Hall. This is a great first-time meet for anyone interested in getting a feel for competition.

Lifters will get three lift attempts to hit their 1 rep max in the bench and deadlift. This is a nonsanctioned meet, but USA Powerlifting rules and regulations for the Raw division will be closely followed. Competition is limited to a maximum of 30 lifters ages 16 years and up - no masters or junior divisions.

Singlets are not required; a variety of belts (i.e. Velcro belts) will be allowed. Deadlift/knee high socks MUST be worn (long leggings or pants would also be accepted) as well as some form of shoe or deadlift slipper while benching and deadlifting. 

For more information, call 301-757-3943.
