It makes no sense to me how those are considered elite. Does hitting a raw elite total make you a pro, like a equipped elite total does?
I compete in strongman at 200. I would be a 198 in powerlifting. A 1471 total is about what I would open with.(525/375/585 would be my openers as of now)...
If anyone follows raw powerlifting, please fill me in. Also, will hitting a raw elite total get you noticed by companies and bring potentil sponsors or is it not a big deal?

Oh, of course it will ring potential for sponsorship, but will not necessarily get you sponsored.

Just read that whole thread. Some valid arguments are beig mae, and I definitely have a huge goal to aim for. I've never been one to set ultimate goals that could be obtained in only a few years. It has always been my plan to some day total 2000 raw, anyway.

my goal has been to hit an elite total raw... elite total being an equipped elite total, not the new raw classification totals.. I want to hit 2000 as well.Originally Posted by dannyautrey

My ultimate goal is to hit a 750 deadlift, 350 log, and load a 400 stone before I'm 21.

this will be my last year at 200. I plan to bulk up to about 230-240 and compete at 231 in strongman. I hope to get a LW pro card next year.Originally Posted by dannyautrey
