I know ! Did you see that guy wearing a Snatch Suit !! ?? Looked silly walking out like that ..


i bet if there was a suit designed to increase an oly lifters snatch and was allowed in comp that a large majority of them would use it!

I would hope if such a suit was designed the IWF would ban it, like FINA eventually did with the new swim suits

When I was young, i thought powerlifting was a competition to see who was the strongest.....


I then learnt it was to see who has the most friends, who can sit back the most and who can put their belly the highest.

Isn't that exactly what you got banned for?


Lol, awesome!

A question to any equipped lifters, why do you prefer lifting equipped?

I saw a preview last week - It's Awesome.

The thing that made it even better was that you got Iron Man 3d classes.

They came in 3 varieties (Iron Man, War Machine and Tony Stark) and I managed to snag one of each Grin
