2025 Testify Barbell MAYhem - Teams Edition!

Barbell MAYhem - Teams Edition is a weightlifting meet wherein competitors will form teams of 2 lifters/team and perform both the snatch and clean-and-jerk.

One teammate will snatch, the other teammate will clean-and-jerk, and each lifter will receive 3 attempts for each lift. A team's score is comprised of each teammate's Robi score (which is based on the heaviest successful attempt for each lift). There are no weight classes for this meet, but there is a weigh-in for each lifter, and lifters can weigh-in during one of the following periods:

• Thursday, 05/22/25, from 4:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.
• Friday, 05/23/25, from 5:00 a.m. - 9:30 a.m.
• Friday, 05/23/25, from 4:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m.

This is not a USAW meet, but the lifts will be judged by USAW standards, and all competition lifts will be performed with kilogram plates (1 kg increments).

The six divisions are as follows:

• Male/Male (Open)
• Male/Male (Masters)
• Male/Female (Open)
• Male/Female (Masters)
• Female/Female (Open)
• Female/Female (Masters)

The open category is for teams with one or both teammates under 30 years of age on the day of competition, and the masters category is for teams with both lifters 30 years of age and older. In the masters category, the team score will be age-adjusted (using Q-points).

Your meet entry fee includes an exquisitely designed and crafted shirt for each teammate, and you - as the stylish wearer of said shirt - will undoubtedly be the envy of all your friends. Don't miss out (shirt guaranteed only if lifters register by May 9). In addition, there will be prizes for the overall winners in each division.

Registration runs until 05/22/25, and there are regular and late registration rates, so register soon!

Testify members: Please talk to Phil Meggers BEFORE registering.

FAQs

Are singlets required?

Nope.

Is this event run like a formal weightlifting meet?

Absolutely not. We want people to have a lot of fun, and we also do not want the meet to take as long as a typical weightlifting meet. With that in mind, we'll be using quite a few platorms throughout the meet. If you're looking for a rigid and formal meet structure, this ain't it, folks. Music will be playing, costumes are encouraged, and the judges may be eating and drinking while performing their duties.

What's the refund policy?

All sales are final; refunds will not be provided.

Is it OK if the names on my ticket or registration doesn't match the people who attend and compete?

Registration should match the name of the participant. Please contact cGhpbCAhIG1lZ2dlcnMgfCB0ZXN0aWZ5c2MgISBjb20= if there are extenuating circumstances that make this impossible.
