I think the turn out was greater than they anticipated. I dont have much experience in meets, just the two ive gone to spectate, the NERB and one up in Laconia at galaxy gym. But i do recall adjustable benches. I wasnt sure on the bench only guys lifting separately, maybe i ws thinking of an article i read Powerlifter1974https://www.blogger.com/profile/13291811445574058964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20442230.post-1153160972442571192006-07-17T11:29:00.000-07:002006-07-17T11:29:00.000-07:00WOW...hate to say it but it doesn't sound like it ...WOW...hate to say it but it doesn't sound like it was ran well...in that it was overbooked...esp. with only 1 platform.....Yeah the bench doesn't sound solid either....can't believe they didn't have an adjustable rack setting...O WELL, if you had fun and learned that is the start of it...gl and get stronger....you will be able to tell a huge difference between this meet and the next one...for me Tig5165https://www.blogger.com/profile/07768410295090058503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20442230.post-1153137949849729872006-07-17T05:05:00.000-07:002006-07-17T05:05:00.000-07:00Jon, that rack command got me, not sure why i t...Jon,<BR/> that rack command got me, not sure why i thought i heard him but guess i didnt, i got 2 reds for it, i didnt think the sides did rack reds or whites but maybe not. Had more than a few people say i got robbed on that one but such is life, there aint no instant replay right?
