so.... A few weeks back, I went to the APA Northeast Regionals. There were 19 lifters. I was there incognito, to wrap a buddy's knees for Squat.
It was a laughable experience. The judging was ridiculuous. Head judge red flagging Depth, while sides gave Whites. Head judge calling it, side judges waiting till he put up his flag before following suit.
THe Music cut-out midway through, and they just gave up on it. The announcer mumbled, and you couldn't understand him, so you had to stand next to him and watch the screen read out to know where you were in the sequence. was supposed to start at 830. Started at 930. THey finished squats at 1130. 19 lifters took two hours....
