What tz said. Ye they gotta get tested to have record (they didnt before testing tho and soem of those records still stand)and the record that belong to people who have been suspended for life.

This isnt my personal opinion...i do believe anybody who is banned should have all their records stripped of them and the record should go to the previosu holder tho.

That sounds pretty sensible to me. Off course someone else may have lifted more than the old record in the interim? Wouldn't be that hard to chase up though.

It’s a reasonable thing to remove all trace of a lifetime suspended member's records, titles etc… However, it would be an administrative nightmare to have to permenantly keep every obsolete record on file and to track down everyone he/she has beaten in the pass and re-award the titles and medal etc.

Yes good point i wouldnt think it would be too difficult but i am not IPF admin, im sure the lifter would speak up however and provided the scoresheet can be provided as evidence (as it would in the IPF) then that would be the record, if the records registrar kept a list of say top 10 lifts per weight class, easy enough really using an excel spreadsheet or whatever cant be difficult then when someone is banned there wouldnt be any fuss???

I didnt say titles only record lifts/totals, i agree if that were the case it would be a nightmare, if just records i would say easily manageable. But then i spose people done out of titles would spark up and want the same to happen with titles...

Pete I'll let you know in due course in the gym mate. I'm sure the weights your pushing for your age and weight class will more than qualify you for sub-junior comps Happy

this is all quite interesting. Thanks for posting these details.

The 105 and 120 classes are going to have some beasts in them.

All the 100 boys will beef up to 105 and the 110 boys have a choice of cutting or bulking depending on how full they were as 110ers.

The U93 class would actually benefit me as i go as heavy as 100kg out of comp, how ever i don't see the point in playing about with the classes and would prefer them to remain as they are

You're quite lean at 87 aren't you ian? I'd lift in the 93 class if I were you. Don't think you'll be facing any more competition to be honest. The big lifters in the old 100 class are more likely to end up lifting in the new 105 class.

Given that this is a matter of concern for many members, and that GBPF will have a vote and say on it; I am suprised that the GBPF executives have not consulted their members on this issue.

I would have thought that this has come from the IPF, so maybe the GBPF wouldn't have much of a say??
