I could probably find 40+ lifters on youtube capable of an 815lb deadlift any day. Why aren't these guys dominating the IPF?
The only thing I can think of is drug testing.


If they're taking PEDs they wouldn't compete in the IPF...

Ok, if they're open about taking PEDs they wouldn't bother with the IPF. That better?

Most untested lifters I spoke too say they don't want to be drug cheats in the ipf/gbpf.they would rather the drug takers in the tested feds leave and lift against them untested..let the clean lifters fight it out

It is the pinnacle of the sport though. It's like saying an athlete or Oly lifter doesn't want to compete at the Olympics..

I think your missing the point of powerlifting its a competitive sport at the end of the day It's not about breaking world records in a "meet" its about winning medals in competitions

And before you say it yeh the guys you listed do win comps because most of the time there's no one else in the wieghtclass

The ipf is the pinicle of the sport due to the level and depth of competition across all the wieght classes not to mention the high level of consistency from the refs and officials also have to take into account the nations that compete in the ipf
