NASGA Whiteboard

I've been wanting to do this for awhile now, but was waiting on the software upgrade. 

I will keep the top 5 in each lift.  We will start with the basic lifts that we all do, and can add other categories (rower times, jumps, pullups, etc...) if there is interest.   

The board starts today, December 15, 2011.  I don't care what you did yesterday, last week, or last year. 

You can either post the submission in this thread or keep it in your log, or both.

You must have a video of the lift.  It's 2011, it's not that difficult. 

I prefer the people submitting have a log on the board.  It's not a requirement, but people that aren't really involved in the board or just spam here probably won't be considered.

Judging (this will be updated as/if needed):

Regarding the Squat Category: I will typically use the 'water test' when judging all squats.  If there was water on your thigh: 1.  It rolls toward your hips - good lift. 2.  It doesn't roll either way - borderline, but we'll count it. 3.  It rolls toward your knees - no lift.

Regarding the Press Category: The lift will NOT count if there there is any knee bend prior to the start of the lift.  I repeat, your knees MUST BE LOCKED. From the chest/clavicle to overhead with no additional momentum builder.  I don't care if you don't think it helped you, it probably did.  If it didn't, you wouldn't do it.

Regarding the Bench Category: Butt must stay on the bench. Bar must touch your chest. Bar must be locked out.

This is a great Idea!

So now I have to video and post each lift in the next day or so.  That way I can be top 5 before 5 other people do.

**need an edit button so I don't need to create a new post.

Jerks need to be from the front?

Jeff's trying to trick us.  We all know that if you're doing enough curls, you shouldn't be able to type out a post.

Nah, I figure with press and push press in there.... jerk anyhow.

I'll just make it a Clean category and Snatch category, and note it when someone takes a spot which type it was.  

Yup, just post the lift with a link to the video.

I like it!  

Man, being top 5 in any of these lifts with the pax on this board would be an impressive feat. 

Where's the steinborn, zercher, and jefferson?
