This Saturday there will be a Power Lifting Meet happening at The Midnight Garden. Individuals are coming to Marshalltown from across Iowa and few from out of state to see how much weight they can lift. Owner of Black Iron Barbell, Jake Reynolds, says people are eyeing to set some records on Saturday.
He says the competitors will have 3 rounds for each lift. They will be first squatting, then bench press, and ending with deadlift.
There are 3 judges for each lift and 2 of them have to confirm that your form was correct for the rep to count. Tons of weight will be tossed around this Saturday, Reynolds says the public is encouraged to come and watch.
Karl of Marshalltown is the main title sponsor and they will have a booth set up, along with Pioneer, and other power lifting companies selling different items.
