I am signing up for my 1st USPA powerlifting meet. I was filling out all of the question and their are 3 questions that I don't know the answer for.
1) Squat rack height
2) Bench press height
3) Bench press safety rack height
There are blanks after all of these so im assuming I have to answer these.. I have no idea what to put. Im 6 feet tall... Do these have to be answered? if so, what do you think I would use? (I have no idea)

Before competition, you will go behind to warm up and that is when you find which rack height, pin height is suitable for you. If you have the same equipment in your own gym then it is good to take note of what you have been using all this whileOriginally Posted by Truebmxer01
