Hopefully, everyone has had a chance to catch their breath after an epic USA Powerlifting Mega Nationals meet in Las Vegas last week. Although the stage doesn’t get any bigger than USAPL Nationals, plenty more strength athletes are still set to put their skills to the test this coming weekend. In total, there are seven USA Powerlifting-sanctioned meets on the schedule for this weekend, June 18-19. Although it is a lighter USAPL schedule than we have seen in other weeks, there is certainly a great mix when it comes to the types of competition.
Weekly USAPL Schedule Overview for June 18-19
Powerlifting enthusiasts quite literally have a little bit of everything on the weekly USAPL schedule. The marquee event of the weekend comes in the form of a USA Powerlifting Pro Series meet as part of the UBU Expo in Dallas. Lifters of all ages will be in action at the expo. The North Carolina State Championships meet on tap for this week as well as the best lifters in the Tar Heel State will duke it out in Raleigh.
In addition to the pro series and state championship meets, among the local competitions scheduled for this weekend is the Rookie Teen and Junior Classic at the Grand Slam USA gym in California. Oh, and there is even an international event on this week’s USA Powerlifting schedule! Some of Australia’s finest will take the platform at the Strength Fortress in Melbourne as the venue hosts its first-ever USAPL competition.
