Can someone aware me on how to get into powerlifting competitvely? Never really considered it and didnt think I'd be good enough untill reading this thread.


Not sure what exactly your question is?

Pick a federation: GBPF or BDFPA
Look on their website for how to join, to do it
Buy a singlet (check it and your belt is on the approved list if going for GBPF) and appropriate underwear (yes, really)
Check the website for a local meet, sign up
Go lift

Wouldn't say complete beginner, but I've never trained seriously in the gym, but now I am. Some of the exercises I am still not struggling too bad on, so still go a little way to go yet. I'm just doing what the program tells me to do :smile:

I only started the program at the beginning of November!

I started on the recommended weights that was calculated by the program guidelines, so 50kg squat, 40kg bench, 40kg row, 20kg OHP and 50kg Dealifts.
