As someone who is new to powerlifting, understanding the differences between all of the federations, and knowing how to pick your first meet and what you need to be prepared is overwhelming.
No worries though, I got you covered!
I speak on USAPL vs. USPA vs. RPS, which are the largest raw powerlifting federations.
I give you my insight on what will help you pick the right meet for you!
And then I do a Q & A from all questions that I received about picking your first meet.
