Push/Pull Events only?

[C T J]

I'm looking at upcoming events in WA, OR, and CA and every single one of them is Push Pull!
I'm looking for a full meet with squat, bench and deadlift. What's the deal?

Have you checked PL watch?

Have you checked PL watch?

That's what I checked. I guess most of them have squatting but for some reason that left it out in the description?
I called one of the events that posted PP, PL, DL, BP and they said yes it's a full meet with squatting so IDK why it's left out but it's there!

Push-Pull events seem to be common in federations that use a monolift. I can't help but wonder if it's because the Promoters/Organizers don't want to lug those monstrosities around?

yeah, PL Watch is pretty spotty when it comes to publicizing meets. I usually just go to the federations' websites that compete in my area.

There is one coming up Oct 10 in Clackamas.

Website: www.powerliftingwatch.com there is a search button which will allow you to choose different filters.

Years ago there was one meet called the West Coast Open. Doyle Kennedy and his team put it on. This has since gone away. (A great meet though!)

At least this site is worth looking at.

That's what I looked at and it said PP (push pull) dl (deadlift) bp (bench press). It did not have SQ for squat...but I called and they said there will be squatting.

The PL in the description stands for power lifting , which generally means all 3 lifts.

I noticed there is still the West Coast Regionals. A few years ago they still held the West Coast Open. Newport has some nice meets. Although, double check. There is a local comp in my area each year but, it's push pull only.

My coach and friends are National Rank Judges for most the comps here in OR.
