Be weighed. You are allowed to wear as little or as much as you would like. It is up to you. If you wish for privacy, let us know so we can remove everyone from the room with the exception of one other woman that will be recording your weight. If you are a minor, you must have a legal guardian present with you.
Have an opportunity to get a new RBI merch! On Friday, we’ll have our RBI merch booth set-up with all new merch dropping that day so plan to stop by and stock-up.
Flight information
Lifters will be flighted after all weigh-ins are completed. This allows us to keep the flights evenly numbered across the platforms and ensures a smooth day of lifting. The lightest weight classes will go first and then we work up from there.
You will receive your flight information via email the night before the WBC event. It will also be announced on Instagram and Facebook, as well as posted in the warm-up area the morning of the event.
If you are signed up for the event, but are no longer able to compete for any reason, please contact wbc@raisethebarinitiative.com. That allows us to try and backfill your spot with someone on the waitlist.
No refunds or transfers will be given for cancellations.
