On June 6, 2026, TBC Wellness Center hosts an official Weight‑Lifting Competition built for real lifters, real standards, and real results. Whether this is your first time competing or your next serious test, this event delivers a fair, professionally run experience where preparation matters and effort is respected. 

This is an unsanctioned competition, judged using established USPA‑style standards as a guideline—meaning consistent rules, qualified judges, and equal treatment for every athlete on the platform. No records, no politics—just lifts judged the same way for everyone. 

Athletes will perform the three classic power lifts:

• Back Squat
• Bench Press
• Deadlift

Each lift allows three attempts, judged by a three‑judge panel—one Head Judge and two Side Judges. A lift is successful only when at least two judges confirm a “Good Lift.” Judges issue clear commands, and lifter safety and fairness take priority at all times. 

There are no weight classes at this event. Instead, scores are calculated using the DOTS scoring system, which adjusts totals based on bodyweight and sex to fairly compare lifters of all sizes. Your final score is your best squat, bench, and deadlift added together and multiplied by the DOTS coefficient. 

This creates honest rankings and meaningful results—where performance, not size alone, determines placement.

• Raw lifting only
• Belts, wrist wraps, and knee sleeves are allowed
• No squat suits, bench shirts, deadlift suits, grip aids, tacky, or chalk products
• All lifts must follow judge commands with controlled movement—no bouncing or dropping bars

Judges do not coach during attempts, and video review is not used. Questions may be directed to the Head Judge for clarification only—calls are final.

Your lifts are recorded on an official Judge Score Card, tracking:

• Each attempt
• Judge decisions
• Good lifts vs. no lifts
• Final total and DOTS score

Every competitor is evaluated using the same written criteria, regardless of experience or reputation.

This competition is serious enough for seasoned athletes and approachable for first‑time competitors. Rules and expectations are clearly communicated, judging standards are consistent, and the atmosphere is community‑driven—not intimidating. If you train with barbells and care about improving your numbers, you belong here.
