Powerlifting as it's known today was born from the strongman shows of the 19th century. During that time, professional strongmen performed a variety of lifts at entertainment venues around the world. Some of the strongman lifts were also used in training as weightlifting became a more popular activity towards the end of the century. In 1928 the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) recognized three lifts, the snatch, the press, and the clean and jerk as Olympic lifts . It grouped all other lifts together as the " odd lifts " or "power lifts". Among them were the squat , the deadlift , and the back lift (to become the bench press ). At bodybuilding contests after World War II, exhibitions of power lifts and informal competitions often occurred.

Powerlifting The sport of Powerlifting explained with information on the Squat, Bench Press, and Deadlift. What do Gene Rychlak, Mike Miller, Andy Bolton, and Garry Frank have in common? They hold the World Records and are the best at the Bench Press, Squat, Deadlift, and Total respectively! The sport of Powerlifting is designed to test a weight lifter’s absolute strength in 3 static lifts. These three lifts, the Squat, Bench Press, and the Deadlift are supposed to represent the three main forms of lifting weights, Pushing, Pulling, and Squatting. Improve your Powerlifting with this great deadlift article. The Squat is considered by many to be the most important and productive form of strength exercise in existence. A powerlifter can use more weight in this exercise than in any other, by using the strong legs, hips and back to their full advantage. Doing a maximum effort Squat also takes some courage. Unlike some exercises, if you can’t lift the weight, you could be in for a serious injury. It is very important to have a spotter around who knows how to spot for a person squatting with heavy weights. Competitive Powerlifting usually demands that lifters wear special Squat Suits to give them support and help them lift more weight. They also wear knee wraps and thick Power Belts. Some of them also wear Groove Briefs, which are basically the bottom half of a squat suit, underneath their Squat Suit. Powerlifting equipment is essential to be competitive at the National Level and higher!

36. Urban Legends Reference Pages: Weight Lifter With Prolapsed Rectum The annual USAPL Pennsylvania State powerlifting Championship contests are held early in the year (February or March), not in November. http://www.snopes.com/photos/risque/prolapse.asp

E-mail this Print this Advanced search Home ... Risqué Business > Power Lifting Power Lifting Claim: Photograph shows a weight lifter who suffered a prolapsed rectum during a powerlifting match. Status: False. Example: [Collected via e-mail, 2003] This rather shocking photo was snapped in November 16th by a spectator at the collegiate power lifting championships at Pennsylvania State. The unfortunate competitor, who expressed a plea to remain anonymous, remembered to surgeons that he was "stuck" at the bottom of a personal best attempt in the squat lift when he "sort of pulled his stomach in and pushed extra hard, at the same time as trying to complete the lift." He remembers a loud popping, splattering noise then a fierce stabbing pain and then not being able to move from the squat position. He remained in this position for about half an hour, since trying to stand caused him overwhelming agonizing pain. Paramedics arrived and applied anaesthesia on the spot and carried him to an ambulance. He was rushed to surgery, where surgeons described the trauma as an "explosive and aggravated prolapse of the bowel". Meanwhile it was revealed that the weight was removed from his shoulders at the time of the incident by two "spotters" on either side of the lifter. The third spotter who was standing behind the lifter was unfortunately sprayed with fecal matter at the time of the incident. This spotter promptly fainted when he realized the extent of the injury to the lifter, who was a personal friend. This compounded the task of first aid officers who were at a loss as to how to treat the injury to the lifter in any case, who remained in the squatting position moaning in pain much to the consternation of the helpless audience.
