How para powerlifting works

1. Para powerlifting is a bench press for athletes with a lower-limb or hip impairment, in bodyweight categories.
2. Lying flat, the athlete lowers the bar to the chest, holds it still, then presses it up to locked arms.
3. Each athlete has three attempts, one in each round. After a good lift the next must be at least 1 kg heavier.
4. Three referees judge each lift: two or three white lights make it good, two or three red a no lift. The heaviest good lift wins.

How long

An athlete must start each attempt within two minutes of being called.
