4. The head is to remain in contact with the bench and the buttock must stay on the bench.

5. Lift offs are allowed-arms must be straight at the start and at the end of the lift.

6.During the lift, the weight will be lowered to the chest and paused until a press signal is given, then you may press the bar off the chest and lock the arms straight

7. You may rack the bar only when the rack signal has been given. If at any time during the lift, the bar dips harshly to one side or the other, an illegal lift call will be given.

8. When giving your next bench weight to the scoring table, remember that you can only request a heavier lift, not a lighter one.

9. Bring your cameras to capture your special moments.

Rules for Dead Lift:

1. The bar must be laid horizontally in front of the lifter's feet, gripped with an optional grip in both hands, and lifted without any downward movement until the lifter is standing erect.

2. The lifter shall face the front of the platform.

3. On completion of the lift, the knees shall be locked in a straight position and the shoulders square or back.

4. The Chief Referee's signal shall consist of a downward movement of the hand and the audible command "down." The signal will not be given until the bar is held motionless and the lifter is in the apparent finished position.

5. Any raising of the bar or any deliberate attempt to do so will count as an attempt.
