He weighs 78kg I weigh 100kg and Sunday is 90s and 100+. Can he compete in the 90s flight while weighing 78?? He knows he's gonna get beat but doesn't care lol! Thanks for the help lads | ||

Thanks for the help lads I would check. In some sports with weight classes, there is a minimum weight per class. (Obviously, there is no "danger" to lifting weights like there is boxing - funnily enough, in wrestling you can enter the weight category you like: Dan Severn won the Middleweight, Heavyweight and Open weight categories at one competition; moving from mat-to-mat) | ||

 ‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3235 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Has he entered at 82.5 class? I'd check with organiser, not because I think there's a problem going up a class but more logistics of them expecting you to weigh in Friday and if he doesn't turn up they'll register him as withdrawn. | ||

Squatting isn't doing my back any good. Member 5108, 869 posts SQ 170, BP 125, DL 210505.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | scruffmcbuff said: Sounds like he needs some dominos pizza in his belly and sand in his pockets. This is an easy solution. All he has to do is weigh more than 82.5 and he’s in the 90’s. Heavy clothes, full stomach, drink a litre of water beg weighin. | ||
