But if you have done the heavier qualifying total at the lighter weight, you can go up. Does that make sense? | ||

You don't have to qualify, just be nominated by your country (we nominate top three, others are different) so because you don't qualify for a particular class you're not tied to one and can move up or down. That's how BWLA/IPF do it and I think drug free is the same. | ||
