Description of Weightlifting Events

Leg Press

You will complete 5 reps on the leg press. For each rep to count you must break 90 degrees between the knees and hips, and then you must press the sled back out until your legs return to the start position without locking the knees. You must keep your whole foot on the sled at all times, you cannot lift your heels off of the sled during the lift. You may have 1 extra rep in case any of the previous reps did not count. You score will be based off the Wilks Scoring system, which will use your weight and the weight you moved. You will have 2 attempts at this event.

Barbell Bench Press

You will complete 5 reps on the barbell bench press. For each rep to count the bench press, the block must touch your chest, and you must return to the start position on each rep. You may have 1 extra rep in case any of the previous reps did not count. You score will be based off the Wilks Scoring system, which will use your weight and the weight you moved. You will have 2 attempts at this event.
