545.0 kgs @ 88kgs UnEq		I lift in the ABPU .. as an m2, 90kg or 82.5kg ... as I'm 47 in May the age bracket of 5 years suits as opposed to 10 in GBPF. At some point I'm thinking of lifting in the GBPF when I'm at the early part of the M2 class and in the 83kg. I also wish to continue lifting in the ABPU as the meets are pretty rocking ... I will be an m2 GBPF in 2020 so first British masters classic as an M2 would be in March that year.

1. Do you qualify as an m1 83 in 2019 .. how does that work?

2. What if I lift at international meets in WPC/AWPC say in 2018 ?

3. Is there anything else I need to think about ?

As I understand if you can lift any fed up to national level and still lift in gbpf ... the ABPU run an event called the Allan Collins cup in January ish it's a regional type meet but sanctioned internationally does that count as lifting internationally .. ??

710.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq		Technically its "British Powerlifting' now.

You can lift in another fed as long as you don't lift in the same comp as a lifter whose on a ban from the fed. If you lift internationaly then you won't be eligible for 'IPF' comp selection for a year..IIRC.

Think those are the main points.

How you supposed to know if someone's at a meet who's on the banned list ... that seems pretty unreasonable to me as a lifetime drug free . The ABPU/BPU has tested and non tested .. I don't know the lifting history of every single lifter or if they're banned or not when I enter a meet ..

It does say who has been banned since 2013 on the website...I imagine you'd contact your anti-doping advisor if you were worried further.

You enter a meet and turn up .. you don't check every single entrant and their history ... I get my entry confirmed and then I go, I dont check every other lfter who may or may not be there ... To me they're on very thin ice with that one . I understand the international thing but that's plain idiotic.

1015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq		Garbage like this stops powerlifting from growing.

I lift in a untested fed, and probably as many as 70% of the lifters are not on anything at all.

ABPU is a tested fed anyway.

Easy, Fella - you're the one who is considering the GBPF...

I'm on record as saying that no sport should test (for Steroids, at least) but I do think that this is a rule that makes sense from British Powerlifting's POV - if they actually think tested sport is the way forward then going the extra mile to make sure the sport is considered "clean" is a good idea on all sorts of levels.

Mutliple feds do. A tested fed that wants to do it's best to limit drug use and support of feds that allow drug use isn't.

If you want to lift on British Powerlifting and another fed then it's actually not a lot for work to check whose banned and go from there. If people don't want to that's fine too Happy

It looks like there are only 14 people that are currently banned, chances are highly unlikely they will be in any comp you want to do.

Out of that 70% I bet many are lying. I could never prove it, but I reckon at least half are going to use. Not everyone is as honest as you Sam.

It would be impossible for anyone to know for certain.
But, I believe that is the beauty of a non tested fed!
I get sams point tho you see alot of women, juniors and new lifters there who are either clearly natty or getting robbed by thier supplier.

If guy A totals 650 and guy b totals 800. Perhaps the first chap doesn't want to look weak, so pulls the natty card.

If c**ts are willing to cheat in a tested fed, surely many will deny using in untested. Not everyone is comfortable admitting drugs, perhaps for work reasons, or any other moral reasons.

Loads of untested lifters look a couple months out from a bodybuilding stage.

Now I'm not saying everyone uses in an untested fed and it would be ignorance to suggest it. I am sure there are many lifters that lift in a fed for many different reasons and not all are drug related.

Unless Sam means, anyone not snorting halo, putting oxy's in their cornflakes, or indulging in Slin Shots is natty. Then you perhaps 30% is right!!!
