It has been brought to the attention of Powerlifting Watch that some powerlifting federation or federations have been giving a certain amount of variance to competitors when they officially weigh in. While the matter is currently under investigation, we would like to get your input.

What does the readership think? It is my understanding that most (if not all) federation's rule books have specifically defined ranges for a particular weight class. If a person is .1 kilos over, then they are over.

In addition, how much responsibility falls on US- the competitors? Could you, as a competitor compete in a weight class if the official weighing you in "gives you" some variance?

Finally, if this can be proven-what are we to do about the lifts that are done in those federations? Are they null and void?
