Dead Lift Form Standards: The bar will be loaded with the weight the competitor specifies and placed on the ground. The competitor will approach the bar and lift it in one continuous motion. When the weight is fully locked out (knees and back fully straightened), the judge will give the “Down” command and the competitor will lower it under control.
The competitor has three attempts and may specify the same weight or a heavier weight in each successive attempt. The competitor may not request a lighter weight after missing with a heavier weight.
Standard, raw division, powerlifting rules apply for TSC deadlifts. A proper lifting platform is suggested if the flooring used is not appropriate for lifting. For more specific information including platform descriptions, consult AAU powerlifting rules.
