Olisikohan ihan mahdotonta, että tuomari antaisi kyykyssäkin lift-komennon?
Sori kun jatkan offtopiccia
kun tuon sanoit, niin eikös joskus muinoin kyykyssäkin ollut Lift komento?
"Back in the late 1950?s Great Britain did have a form of Powerlifting, called the Strength Set comprising the curl, bench press and squat, performed in that order. This test of power brought many lifters to the British lifting scene lifting some very creditable poundages.
This early Strength Set lifting saw many battles between Brian McPeak of Bel¬fast, N. Ireland and Ron Judge of London, both making their best career lifts in 1964. Their totals were 160-325-510-995 for McPeak and 155-300-520-975 for Judge both at 154 pounds. Judge then squatted 543 for a British Record,
Vince Arcari of Manchester squatted 475lb at 140lb bodyweight in 1962, which was surpassed the same year by Louis Ross with 500lb.
Notable lifting came from Eddie Kershaw, the first to squat 700lbs, Terry Perdue first to bench 500lbs and Neil Whillock first to dead lift 700lbs.
Outstanding was Bob Memery from Liverpool who lifted in the 13 stone class winning 5 British titles until 1965. At this time the Curl was dropped and replaced by the dead lift. This was called powerlifting, with the first British Championships being held in 1966.
With both Great Britain and the USA staging national Championships and Powerlifting becoming more organised an international would be the next progressive step. But the first international was between Great Britain and France, but the French did not do the dead lift.
So in 1968 a team of six French lifters came to Bristol, England for the first international. The next year a team of six British lifters went to Paris for the return match. And won.
Note: no dead lift and on the squat the lifter went down into the squat and stayed there until the referee gave him the signal to come back up again!! "
