The American Powerlifting Committee (<a href="http://<a href="http://www.americanpowerliftingcommittee-usa.com)">http://www.americanpowerliftingcommittee-usa.com)</a>">www.americanpowerliftingcommittee-usa.com)">http://www.americanpowerliftingcommittee-usa.com)</a></a> was incorporated in 2003. <br />
<br />
The APC promotes equipped and raw powerlifting, Bench Press only, Push Pull, and Deadlift only competitions. <br />
<br />
The APC supports two unique international powerlifting federations: <br />
<br />
The Global Powerlifting Alliance (<a href="http://<a href="http://www.globalpowerliftingalliance.com)">http://www.globalpowerliftingalliance.com)</a>">www.globalpowerliftingalliance.com)">http://www.globalpowerliftingalliance.com)</a></a> was formed in 2009 to fulfill the need for a World Organization devoted only to Raw Powerlifting. It was the first to do so. The fourth GPA World Powerlifting Championships were held in Tampere, Finland December 5 – 8, 2013.<br />
<br />
The International Powerlifting Organization (<a href="http://<a href="http://www.internationalpowerliftingorganization.com)">http://www.internationalpowerliftingorganization.com)</a>">www.internationalpowerliftingorganization.com)">http://www.internationalpowerliftingorganization.com)</a></a> was formed in 2012 to provide a format for equipped only lifters. The first IPO World Powerlifting Championships were held in Athens, Ga., USA October 18 – 20, 2013.<br />
<br />
The APC, GPA, and IPO are all similar in rules, lifter classifications, and judging. The partnership of the three federations has standardized powerlifting to provide a format for all lifters, raw and equipped, with fairness to all worldwide. <br />
<br />
We invite you to join us and further unite the world’s greatest sport POWERLIFTING!<br />
<br />
