What’s with the beef with the different powerlifting groups (leagues maybe?)? Also is there anyone on this list that would be fun to watch? https://www.powerlifting.sport/file.../2022/World-Games-participants-final-list.pdf
Ahmed Hassanin He’s in the US on a sports visa from Egypt and his sport is PL. super super humble guy and just incredibly nice.
Brief synopsis? A lot of it seems to be around weight class shifts and testing/gear but I can’t really figure it out.
Just with the USAPL/IPF there was a big rift on drug testing. IPF wanted testing to be done through WADA accredited labs. USAPL wanted more tests and those labs are more expensive so sometimes they went with other testing facilities. USAPL wouldn’t stop testing so they disaffiliated with IPF.
Thoughts on replacing back squat with front squat on my next cycle? Want to put more focus on improving my quad strength.
Only issue would be is if your max front squat is like 50% of your back squat max then I’d worry the weight wouldn’t be enough stimulus to grow. Otherwise, no problem at all. BUT how would you get strong unless you do them

They won’t because of our affiliate relationship. They may start selling it though, especially REP, who is actually pretty innovative unlike titan
Titan innovates plenty dude, come on. Like for example they take everything rogue makes and makes the exact same Thing but puts “Titan” on it instead of “rogue” and reduces the quality by 20%
