The records set at the Longhorn Open have been updated. There has been confusion concerning who is eligible to set state records and how to properly claim a record. Here are a few answers to the most common questions:

In order set a state record, you must...

  • be registered as a Texas USAPL member.
  • weigh in 2 hours before you start lifting (not the night before).
  • submit a Record Request Form to the Webmaster.

Also, you can set a Texas record at any USAPL/IPF sanctioned meet in any state or country.

Certain state records may be higher than American, National, or even World Records because they are much easier to claim and do not require national-level judges.
