Can anyone explain the difference between the two please as I can't find the answer online.

I gather the ABPU is a tested federation, but not sure on the BPU

Thanks

The BPU and ABPU are two parts of the same fed - ABPU is tested, BPU isn't. Both have raw,raw with knee wraps, singly ply and multiply divisions.

If you don't take drugs, you're labelled as an amateur.

This accurately sums up the attitude to sports in general, I think.

So you can be an excellent tested athlete, such as Owen Hubbard (205kg raw bench at 82.5kg BW, and he's not even a bench specialist) and be branded an amateur.
Or you could be as crap as me, but take drugs, and be labelled a pro.

It was. As WAS my squat with wraps (240). Owen is a bit of a freak. His 205 bench RAW was something I'd hope for in a bench shirt.

Still gutted that I never went into the warmup room and hit that 200 shirted bench.

I always preferred single ply gear anyway. Able to hit depth and utilise the stretch of single ply vs the all out stopping power of multiply kit that I never even bothered with. Couldn't even use a 2 ply squat suit as I couldn't hold the silly fat bars on my back.

I was actually going to compete in the GBPF London qualifiers next Sat but I'll be in Leeds on that day. You still coming?
