While I love Powerlifting, I just dont like the equipped version. My favorite era in the Irongame, is 70's Powerlifting.
Doug Young, Vince Anello, my bud Ted Arcidi (going to his house on SAT), Mike Bridges, Ricky Crane, Reinhoudt, etc...
And I dont even mind the early bench shirts that they used to put on themselves (Marathon) but then it got silly.
(Ted used an early Marathon type shirt for his 705 bench in Hawaii, put it on themselves,and arms didnt hang out front like Frankenstein).
Raw lifting has made a comeback recently, so all is good. (Belts and sleeves are OK in current raw) I have no issue w/ that.
I'd like to know Fortress's opinion on the gear usage in PL.
