DoDDS Liftoff
The main goal of the Liftoff is to promote involvement in weightlifting as well as recognizing those athletes who are involved in a work out program. This program will allow all athletes to compare themselves with other athletes of similar body composition through out DoDDS. We want all students to get involved regardless of current physical ability and weight lifting experience.
This Liftoff competition is a DODEA world-wide bench press competition and is open to all students grades 8-12.
The objective is to compare ones individual upper body strength against all DODEA students world-wide.
Rules for competition.
- Each lift MUST be witnessed by Coach/PE teacher/Sponsor.
- This is only for free weights (No machines)
- The bar should come down an inch from the chest and then lifted.
- A lift is completed when the elbows lock.
- ABSOLUTELY NO BOUNCING!
- The spotter(s) may help lift the bar off the rack.
- Both feet must stay on the floor.
- Gloves may be worn during the lift.
- Absolutely no helping. “Barely helping” does not count!
The final tabulation will be calculated by dividing ones maximum press by their body weight to determine their strength percentage.
Deadline for all lifts is 1 June.
See Coach W to get your maximum lift and weight charted.
