Hey hannibal, that's great that there is a just raw comp - is there a qualifying total needed to lift it?

That got cancelled (too few entries), but I'm doing one this Saturday 26th February with the British Drug Free Powerlifting Association (BDFPA). It's an unequipped comp, so suits me better.

Ok these are my plans for the current year (if my arms will be all healthy by then):
German LogLift Championships in may
GDFPF German Cup might happen in may, too
IPF German Raw Cup in November

Then I´m still looking for a smaller comp to compete in, planning on dragging my training partner into it

And then there is something that you get to know about as soon as it´s done for I can feel the crackpipe is strong in it

Good luck in this one!

For me weightlifting comps will be chosen by my trainer but just, if my technique is ok and atm I can´t workout.
Already planning to win titles in that would be way over the top
