The biggest powerlifting weekend of the early season is almost here, and it is landing inside the Arnold Festival.
If you've never watched powerlifting in a packed festival environment, expect a different vibe. More noise. More foot traffic. Less calm. The platform still demands precision. The lifters who execute clean usually rise fast.
Powerlifting runs March 6 through 8 in Columbus, Ohio, with invited lifters getting their shot in the Open, the Masters, and Adaptive classifications. Records get chased at meets like this for a simple reason, the field is deep and the stakes feel real.
There will be live streaming, so you can follow along from home, or you can show up in person and get the full experience. Either way, here is what matters, what to watch for, and how to follow it without missing the best sessions.
