Power Sports©, developed and implemented by Rich Peters in 1996, was designed to test an athlete's over-all strength levels. The mere fact that no supportive equipment is allowed is a testament of the athlete's confidence in his strength levels and his true power as a strength athlete.

*Bench Press - displays the strength level of the athlete's chest, shoulders and triceps.

*Deadlift - The true test of over-all body strength using the legs, lower back, upper back and shoulders.

Rules: Standard Power Sports Rules© will be used and will be strictly enforced.
