TORQUE BARBELL OPEN 2023

Date/Time:

Saturday, March 25th, 2022 (8:00 AM) - (7:00 PM)

Athlete Registration is done through BARS (USAW website)

Join us for our eighth annual Torque Barbell Open. On March 25th Torque Barbell will have lifters from throughout the mid-west competing at our USAW sanctioned meet.

As with all USAW sanctioned meets, weigh-ins open 2 hours before the start time for each weight class. A USAW membership and proper attire are required for your lifts to count.

For those not familiar with an Olympic weightlifting meet, you will have 3 attempts to post your best snatch and 3 attempts to post your best clean and jerk. Those are the bare bones basics but be sure to study up with the material below if needed. This meet is for all levels of competitors as last year we had many first time competitors competing next to those pushing for national records.

In order to compete in Olympic weightlifting in the US, you need to be a current member of USA Weightlifting. Go to http://www.teamusa.org/USA-Weightlifting to register.
