SUMMARY:Special Challenge: Push Press
DESCRIPTION:Special Challenge: Push Press\nThe USSF would like to invite you to a special challenge. From December 6th to December 12th\, athletes from around the world will submit their best push press to compete for honor\, glory and prizes. \nPush Press Ruleset \n\nThe press is performed from the rack or after cleaning up the weight. No viper pressing (continuous motion) is allowed.\nThe bar is held in both hands in the front of the neck with a prone power grip. The bar sits in the palm with the four fingers wrapped around the bar and the thumb opposed.\nThe feet are in-line with one another and not staggered.\nThe starting position must be upright with knees and hip fully extended and the chest up. The bar must start motionless below the level of the chin.\nAfter the starting position is correctly and obviously assumed\, the bar is pressed overhead in one continuous upward motion to a position with elbows completely extended and with the bar behind a vertical line from the most anterior aspect of the armpit to the floor. Any deliberate effort to press the bar after the bar is removed from the racks counts as the attempt. Any athlete who is anatomically unable to fully extend one or both elbows must demonstrate that before each attempt.\nThe use of a push press is allowed. Knees and hips may unlock to assist in initiating upward motion of the bar. Active dorsiflexion is also allowed.\nThe knees and hips must remain extended until the overhead position has been obviously assumed. No push jerk\, split jerk\, squat jerk allowed.\nOnce the overhead position has been obviously assumed and the bar has become motionless\, the bar is lowered back down and either walked back into the rack or carefully dropped to the floor with both hands controlling the rebound.\n\nReasons for Disqualification \n\nFailure to assume a start position with the bar motionless below the chin.\nAfter the upward initiation of the push press\, any downward motion of the center of the bar occurs prior to lockout\, as measured between the hands.\nAny re-bending of the knees or active hip flexion in order to catch the bar in a lower position.\nAny pronounced uneven lockout of the elbows.\nAny deliberate contact or any unintentional contact with a rack that would aid a lifter\nAny forward\, backward or lateral step during the press itself.\nDownward motion of the bar occurring from the start position but before upward motion is permitted\, including use of the hips and knees to get the bar moving.\nDropping the bar to the floor without control.\n\nThis is a current event

SUMMARY:2020 USSF Spring Open ATL - Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:Description\nThe best run and most enjoyable lifting contest has returned for the spring and Atlanta Barbell is pumped to be hosting. \nThis is a strengthlifing meet. The contested lifts will be the squat\, press (overhead)\, and deadlift\, which differs from a powerlifting meet. While are both strength sports where similar movements are done\, strengthlifting has rules (or a lack thereof) that create quite a different type of competition. For example:\n-There is no bench press. Instead\, you will perform the standing press. \n-Deadlifts must to be done conventionally\, with the feet inside of the hands. \n-There are no weigh-ins only weigh-outs. You do not weigh in prior to the meet\, you will weigh out after your final deadlift attempt\, and this will determine your weight class. \n-Judges are not involved in the lift whatsoever. No one tells you when to squat\, when to press\, or when to do anything during the actual lift. \nTo see other distinctions\,a full set of rules can be found here \nThe meet will be held under the sanction of the US Strengthlifting Federation (USSF). Competitors will be ranked and can qualify for nationals. A USSF membership is required to compete. If you do not have one\, register here: https://internationalbarbellfederation.com/rules/ \nPrevious competitions have been enjoyable and efficient affairs and I am looking forward to this one running just as well. The meet will be capped at 40 lifters. We keep it at 40 so the meet doesn’t take up an entire day. So sign-up quick as we have sold out our past few events . Overall winners of the meet will be calculated via the Wilks formula\, will take home honor\, pride\, and a piece of memorabilia signifying your accomplishment.

A lifter merely needs to demonstrate proper control and execution of the lifts as detailed in the rules linked above. \nIs there a bench press? Unlike the sport of powerlifting\, the USSF recognizes the press (overhead) in place of the bench press. \nCan I perform the sumo variant of the deadlift? You are allowed to place your legs as wide as you wish\, but in maintaining fairness of competition and assuring that all competitors perform the lift with similar mechanics\, hands must remain outside of the legs while performing a deadlift. \nDo I need a membership to compete? Yes\, all USSF athletes must purchase a membership to be eligible to compete in a sanctioned event. Memberships are valid for one full year and can be purchased here: https://internationalbarbellfederation.com/register/ussf-membership/ \nThis event is organized by Next Level Barbell. \nThe USSF would like to thank our sponsors at Barbell Logic\, Fivex3\, Next level Barbell\, Muteki Knives\, and Dominion Strength Training. \nMatt Reynolds and Scott Hambrick started the Barbell Logic Podcast as a way for them to share a step-by-step education in barbell-based strength training.

SUMMARY:2019 USSF Fall Classic - Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Strength meets are unique competitions that allow lifters to establish their one-repetition maximum attempts in the squat\, press\, and deadlift. Equipment allowed is limited to belts\, knee sleeves\, wrist wraps\, and shoes. All deadlifts are pulled conventionally. Lifters don’t weigh in. They weigh out after their last deadlift attempt. Rules that govern this meets are available here: \nUnited States Strengthlifting Federation Technical Rules \nSee you on the platform! \nWhat’s the refund policy? \nWhen you purchase a ticket\, you guarantee yourself a slot at the meet with limited attendance. As a result\, all ticket sales are final and refunds cannot be issued. \nIs my registration fee or ticket transferable? \nIt is\, although you need to contact David Abdemoulaie to make sure that he has the new information and can process the transfer. This is especially important for t-shirts\, which are ordered several weeks in advance. Transfers that take place less than four weeks before the meet are not guaranteed to get a t-shirt.
