All RPS rules of lift performance will be maintained.

First and foremost the use of the equipment must be safe for the lifter and the spotters. If the judges feel at anytime the lifter has not shown control and command of the weight attempted, they have the authority to deny any remaining attempts.

All safety precautions must be in effect: safety straps/chains on monolifts and face savers on benches. Should the platform bench provided not have a catch device and the attempted weight heavier than safely spotted by two side spotters, then the lifter must provide their own spotting team who must also sign waivers.

Unlimited Equipment Division Classes

The Unlimited Equipment Division will be scored at the meet directors discretion and recorded only in Professional classes and segregated further by gender, weight and age divisions. Teens wishing to enter this division must do so under Junior as Professionals are not allowed in the Teen age divisions.

Records and rankings will be kept for each of the eligible divisions.

Personal Equipment Eligibility 

The equipment used must be constructed to the definition of suits and briefs for squat and the definition of shirt for bench.
