@malgosia63 I'm struggling to comprehend the "warm up" talk Warm up some lifts before the wod, to gauge an idea of what your potential is. You'll be "warm" after the wod - just hit the first thruster at a semi-challenging weight you know you can do, then challenge it. I don't know if it's...

@lalaen Well the judges course tells you it’s also the judge’s responsibility to check the equipment / weight, hence I said PARTLY a judging issue. As someone who just judged 60+ people through 23.1, I checked the weight on the bar each and every time… it’s basics really I’d say it’s mostly on...
