I don't blame you. I tell people to avoid CAPO/GPC all the time.
You're right. Gym lifts are the only ones that count, what with their strict adherence to powerlifting standards, calibrated weights, etc. Oh, wait.....
Here is a pic of a typical Sparty gym lift. Seems legit....

Don't fret though. Gerry and I will do the heavy lifting for you, where it counts: on the platform with three well trained judges.
If you are hard up and can't afford the price of a comp entry, let me know and I'll pay for it. Serious. After all, it is the most expensive sport on the planet, except for just about everything except chess and darts (not counting beers).
It's OK Sparty. Someone has to stay back and look after the chooks.
