The Iron Games                            Powerlifting
                   competition. Three for the squat, three for the bench
                   press,  and  five  for  the  deadlift.  Each  lift  is
                   distinguished  by  using  a  different  colored  card.
                   Having made his first attempt at a lift, the lifter or his
                   coach must decide upon the weight required for his
                   second attempt. This weight must be filled in where
                   indicated  upon  the  card  and  submitted  to  the
                   competition  secretary  or  other  appointed  official
                   before  the  one  minute  time  allowance  has  elapsed.
                   The same procedure is to be used for the second and
                   third  attempts  on  all  three  lifts.  Responsibility  for
                   submitting attempts within the time limit rests solely
                   with the lifter or his coach. Under the round system,
                   the need for numerous marshals is eliminated, the
                   attempt card being handed directly to the designated
                   official.  Examples  of  attempt  cards  are  illustrated.
                   Remember that the box for first attempts on the cards
                   in  the  lifters  possession  is  only  to  be  used  for  the
                   permitted first attempt change if required. Similarly,
                   the  fourth  and  fifth  boxes  on  the  deadlift  card  are
                   only to be used for the two permitted changes on the
                   third  attempt  deadlift  if  required.  In  single  bench
                   press  competitions  a  card  similar  to  that  of  the
                   deadlift will be used.
